@owlstalk Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Can't think of a time when we were ever better prepared to fade the piggies Strikers on form, new signings looking great, defence solid and a feel good factor I reckon this will be less tight than previous years and we will stuff em 3-0 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wath-owl Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 We don't do 3 nils. If we win it will be by a single goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlsmac Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I wouldn't say our defence is solid, only had 1 clean sheet upto now, hopefully make that 2 though on sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid Wicket Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 It will not be that easy, Billy Blunt will be in their ears all week and they will be up for it. I see them starting well and pressuring us early but we will stand firm and our better players will come through 1-0 or 2-1. 3 pts to us and shut noisy sods up. Oh sorry! They'll say we were lucky and they will tank us at lane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan93 Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Everything goes out of the window for this one. It's a matter who wants it more and who has the most bottle. Wilder will really fire up his players. Don't forget they've had a decent start too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themaskedowl Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I seem to remember a little event called the Boxing Day Massacre. It doesn't pay to be too cocky around derby games. They often rip up the script. On paper sure we have a better squad, and we're at Hillsborough. Doesn't always add up to a win even if it's not a derby.

Daniel Judge Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 I have no idea how anyone can ever be so confident about the outcome of a game of football, particularly against a team whoa are above us in the league. Same happened when we were due to Play Huddersfield in Playoffs (who would've been above us barring them playing their reserve team for 3 weeks!). All sorts of nutjobs on here claiming an easy 4-0 win, etc, etc. All I know, is that we may be slight favourites on recent form and home advantage, but I'll be a nervous wreck all game. Any team in this league can beat any other, but a derby, in particular, is even more difficult to predict. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's going to be magically different?! Derby games tend to be tight, tense affairs. When was the last time we stuffed someone? Norwich last season?

Waddlesdiamondlights Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 We have to get off to a fast start because they will be on it .If we go behind to an early goal I believe they'll throw everything at us and if they go a couple of goals up they'll shut shop and play on the counter.It also depends how we set up I hope we dont employ the same tactics get an early goal and then try and defend it that would be football suicide but its a tactic we use too often.

Well done....is it just me that finds throwing grief at Billy Sharp distasteful - the blokes experienced what I would imagine is the worst thing life can throw at you so I don't think anyone calling him names of any sort will even register in terms of bothering him - it says more about those giving him the grief than it does him Fair enough he plays for United so give him a respectful amount of grief when the game is on but it wouldn't do any harm to leave him in peace off the field, perhaps thinking back to how a Leppings lane full of United fans (in the days when you could fill it) behaved when we had a minutes silence for 2 of our fans who had died on the way back from Coventry and for those of you who weren't at that game, the words drop and pin would be 2 of those used to describe what happened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
