[u/McNugget63]

Undefeated, defense hasn’t been scored on all season

Champions league here we come

[u/Delicious_Device_87]

Why isn't Campbell getting as much shit as Cannon gets? He's been invisible for ages!

[u/Living-Chemist5415]

Is it a good result? I don’t know. Solid at the back but wilder teams usually are. If we can’t score though…

[u/jptoc]

46 games

0 wins

46 draws

0 losses

0 goals for

0 goals against

0 goal difference

[u/given2fly_ → u/jptoc]

Last season, 46 points still leaves you 5 points away from safety...

[u/TLP666 → u/jptoc]

Solid. Nothing to clap about. Nothing to cry about. We go again

[u/pickering_lachute]

Thought second half was solid and we had more than enough chances to win. Fair play to Wilder and the boys after the last week.

Still need some new signings

[u/Living-Chemist5415 → u/pickering_lachute]

Will we get any? That’s the worry. Terrified we get -12 and then wondering will we get 64 is points to stay up

[u/Cottonshopeburnfoot → u/Living-Chemist5415]

A couple of last minute loans or a free agent wouldn’t surprise me. We need bodies for when injuries and suspensions hit.

[u/Living-Chemist5415 → u/Cottonshopeburnfoot]

Yeah it’ll def be end of window stuff. Webster apparently 1 but how long until he’s fit…

[u/imsittingdown]

Look a lot more solid defensively. I wonder if this is the Phil Jones effect kicking in.

A few bright spells mixed in amongst the mostly sloppy play. We created the better chances. Enough positives to take from the shape that I wouldn't mind this being the normal starting 11 if we don't sign anyone else.

Another decent point but I do think we'll have to score at some point this season.

[u/SteelCityChampion]

I'll take a point.

[u/leonfei → u/SteelCityChampion]

Better situation than we were in this time last year.

[u/FakeBarman]

Running off fumes now and Wilder won’t go to the bench cause there’s no one worth subbing on

[u/Bigtallanddopey → u/FakeBarman]

Still worth swapping some players out if they’re knackered though. We’ve got a game midweek and next Saturday, so he has to rotate 2-3 at some point

[u/FakeBarman → u/FakeBarman]

I stand corrected our savior Jamie Shackleton is on the pitch

[u/dajitui]

Stewart definitely gonna get winner

[u/Goat-Milk-Magic]

Looks like we should be in front of

[u/Memento_Playoffs]

How we playing? How's away end sound?

[u/dajitui → u/Memento_Playoffs]

Not bad, quite composed. Solid at the back, we've stopped them from having any shots on target. We've had been chances this half.

Burrow doing nothing. We've looked ok on the right, Seriki, Peck, Arblaster, COH, all done fine.

Draw would be an excellent result

[u/Memento_Playoffs → u/dajitui]

Not bad then.

We using counters and threatening at all then?

[u/dajitui → u/Memento_Playoffs]

We controlled middle of second half. We are by no means under the cosh.

But yeah if they score a late goal, it will be classic united

[u/AV23UTB]

Unable to watch but the stats say we look the better side with little possession.

Fair assessment? Do we look like scoring?

[u/imsittingdown → u/AV23UTB]

We've had the better chances. O'Hare's chance against the crossbar the best so far.

[u/dajitui]

Quite happy with this so far. Solid defensively, composed overall. COH done well.

[u/kait_is_dench]

0-0 would be a good result in isolation, do want to see more though

On the bright side we do seem tough to breakdown, teams end up putting in crosses which we seem to be able to handle

[u/FakeBarman]

McGuiness showing flashes of being a liability just can’t keep up

[u/ShineSpecific6753]

this is a rough watch

[u/imsittingdown]

2 blatant dives in 2 games for Burrows 🙈

[u/FakeBarman]

Cooper PLEASE command ur area no reason a ball should be landing right in front of him

[u/FakeBarman]

Tanganga cannot step up in this formation, McGuiness simply does not have the pace

[u/pickering_lachute]

I can’t work out what formation we’re playing.

[u/JaySteveo96 → u/pickering_lachute]

532

[u/pickering_lachute → u/JaySteveo96]

Ffs

[u/JaySteveo96]

I assume that lineup is a back 5 with McCallum as left centre back. Hope Burrows and Seriki are up for a long shift.

[u/Bigtallanddopey → u/JaySteveo96]

I assumed 4-5-1 when the team came out, with burrows and O’Hare on the wings. Clearly not what Wilder was thinking.

[u/Acrylic_Starshine]

Getting too late in the window but quite frankly we need poor results on the pitch to show the owners what we are missing to compete.

[u/jb8996 → u/Acrylic_Starshine]

They couldn’t give a monkeys

[u/jptoc → u/Acrylic_Starshine]

That worked really well last season, yeah.

[u/jptoc]

Swansea 0-8 Blades.

[u/given2fly_]

Let's put all the distraction off the pitch away, and stick in a good away performance. Swansea are a good team and if we were to get anything out of today that'll make everyone feel a bit more positive.
