CE-Owl Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 So his side win 4-2 and as most have said, fair play to them - better tactics and wanted it more. Yet after the match he starts giving it about us saying 'pub league' and 'always in our shadow'. The guy for all his football brain clearly has a short memory. It was their lot - not just the fans, but the likes of McCabe and Warnock - who started the 'light years ahead' and 'pub league' comments. Its their lot who cried about Tevez for years and tried to sue Sheffield Council when Hillsborough was shortlisted for the World Cup. Even in victory they play the hard-done-by victims. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WatfordOwl Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 We've ripped the pee out of them for 6 years, they're bound to have a moment in the sun. Let's be fair, every one of us to a man would have rammed it down their throats if we'd won the game yesterday. Wilder as a Blades fan is rightly going to be proud of turning us over............can't blame him. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animis Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 TBH even though it hurts seeing what unfolded on the pitch for 90min yesterday, I would rather that happen than what happened to them in May 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CE-Owl Posted September 25, 2017 Author Share Posted September 25, 2017 I get that he can gloat about the win but he still plays the 'poor old hard-done-by us' tune. Even when they got promoted McCabe had some odd dig about our youth. I dont recall our hierarchy ever putting stuff like that on the public record.

Big Ron's Sovereign Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) That's what happens when they're in the shadow for so long. They're having their few minutes of the sun shining on em before it's time to go back in the shadows again. We all know it and what's best about it so does he.

paulrs Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I thought the same. His comments, while not triumphalist, came across as very mealy mouthed and slightly undignified. Unlike Carlos he's a sweaty, unintelligent and fairly class-less individual but also unlike Carlos he's getting the absolute maximum from his resources. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groundhopping Owl Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Much as it hurts, we have to let the c**t enjoy his moment in the sun. It's cheap and shows a lack of class, but his whole management style is in fitting with the whole Sheffield United "us versus the world" ideology. Frustrating as it is - it works a treat sometimes, managers like Mourinho use it at the very top level, always sniping at others and lording it over whoever they've beaten. I'm absolutely convinced that Steve Evans will manage United one day, another loud-mouthed berk always ranting about some injustice or other while securingly amnoyingly good results out on the pitch. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snaykz Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 I thought Wilder was totally classless in that interview. By referencing how much they'd spent compared to us, he knew full well that he would be piling extra pressure onto Carlos - a man he supposedly likes and respects. Not that I expected anything less. When it boils down to it, they're still an incredibly bitter bunch with a huge chip on their collective shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suzuki_San Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 He’s just trying to ingratiate himself with his fans, so when he’s flirting with relegation in 6 months, he has a few friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. We had our turn at Wembley in 93, when it mattered more, & on Boxing Day. You can't win 'em all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a rehash of the Basset days, and to a lesser degree Warnock era - always going on at our 'millions'. When Wilko, Big Ron and Tricky Trev were doing well, you never heard them once reference them - in anyway. Even when they have some success they need to mention us first.

Up at 4.30, 6 hour Megabus trip, tram from Meadowhall full of piggy tramps and then rewarded with that.
