“A proper blood and thunder championship match”

“Disappointing result in the end but we were the better team from start to finish.”

“Take the point in the end, disappointing not to get the three against 10 men”

“We were all over them.It was a great performance .They are good defensively and parked the bus as soon as they went down to 10. We had enough chances on the 2nd half to win”

“Should have won by 4. So many chances. If only someone could head a ball better”

“We really should’ve won this comfortably with the chances we  had.”

“Got to say Sunderland and Sheff Utd looked nothing special given their league position”

“A bit disappointed would have taken a point but Sheffield United were there for the taking and looked absolutely knackered after about 65 minutes.”

“People acting like these are points dropped they’re not. Very much a point gained, came back twice from losing positions. We dominated them and they’re supposed to be one of the best teams in the league.”

“Think 11v11 they’d have put us to bed.”

“Rak-Sakyi in particular was a big threat. Probably would’ve been a different game had him and Campbell not been subbed off due to Ahmedhodžić’s dismissal.”

“Don’t think we did enough to win it personally. Too many bad individual decisions on the ball. Still, would have taken 2-2 before kick off and thought there was a lot to be encouraged by from aspects of the performance. They’re clearly a good side, even if they are a bunch of snide pricks. Imagine they’ll get autos and probably only concede about 40 goals all season.”

“Interesting Wilder agrees with what many were saying preseason that we have a top 4-5 squad”

“Whatever people think about wilder , he’s a very good succesful manager”

“Personally wouldn’t sniff at us appointing Wilder…”

“I think he’s a good fit for Sheffield United but aside from there he’s not done much at this level at all”

“Wilder should thank his lucky stars he’s got Hamer to bail him out most weeks”

“Hamer is 10 times the snake o hare is, the worrying thing was 90% of the crowd were clapping when he took that corner”

“Little goblin looks like he’s turned full bellend since he moved to them fucking shithouses. Hope he gets out of Cov quickly today though or he could end up with an arse so sore it rules him out for the season.”

“Clapping the guy who set up the opposition goal when we’re 2-1 is so embarrassing”

“Get over it – people liked Hamer and decided to clap in Singers Corner.”

“enjoyed the pantomime ‘cheer Hamer, boo O’Hare’ stuff – although didn’t really feel genuine vindictiveness”

“Will always respect and appreciate how O’Hare  helped drag us up the devisions, always gave his all too. The people that booed him are ridiculous and have short memories”

“COH getting booed did the trick on him though.”

“Definitely. He looked lost today, and think the crowd got in his head big time.
Would feel sorry for him if it wasn’t for our benefit”

“COH needs to be loved, needs to be the centre of attention. He always played to the cameras as City Unseen always showed.
An immature prick who thought the premier league beckoned.
Hamer was wanted by the premier league.
That’s the difference.”

“Why Hamer and O’Hare would want to play for a team like that is beyond me.”

“don’t mind the winding up from Bassette at all, but I found it really embarrassing, him rolling around on the floor clutching his face, when their defender had grabbed him by the throat.

It was going to be a red anyway. There was no need to do that.
But I have no problem in trying to wind players up.”

“Guys a prick but we’ve had pricks against us enough and he’s our prick.”

“I’d have been raging at his antics against us but we have lacked any sort of that needle for ages”

“Ahmedhodzic is arguably the best cb in the division and Bassette got right under his skin. Great to see.”

“Thing is teams like Sheff U get away with it time after time but don’t like it up ’em . Diddums”

“We appear to have broken the Sheffield united fan base. they are rattled like anything”

“feel we deserved the 3 points.
I question the equaliser offside, also their fella who elbowed Milan, plus we had about 60 mins plus to win vs 10 men who other than 2 shots, were poor.”

” think we should appeal about the elbow on mve as well. It was assault.
Get him banned as well.”

“it’s just as much a red as the actual red
should have been down to 9″

“They would argue Bassette fell needlessly leading with the elbow to their players head when he was prone on the floor.
We aren’t going to appeal about anything and rightly so.”

“to me looks like hes tried to push him away and missed and ended up using his elbow more , doesnt seem intentional”

“Absolute joke how much time they were allowed to waste in that added time, keeper was taking the piss”

“6 of them 8 mins were spent in the keepers hands.”

“nailed on pen on BTA but nope yellow card instead, useless ‘ref’ turned up for a day out”

“Won’t have a quieter away end all season.”
