“They don’t come much harder than a trip to Sheff Utd on current form so to get a win is incredible.
This Boro team don’t fear anyone and I’m all for it.”
“Tough match that, 2nd half sheff United put us under the cosh, we held on and defended well at times, very good performance, against a good team”
“amazing game, best Championship game I’ve seen this season…Sheff Utd played their part too”
“Sheff Utd were good tonight. Psychologically, that is a massive 3 points.”
“Sheff United are no doubt one of the best teams in the league.”
“Got to say that was a bit of quality from Sheffield United for their goal”
“It would have been a miracle if the second half had matched the breathless first 45 and to be fair a team of Sheff Utd’s quality was always going to mount a strong comeback…which is just what they did.”
“A superb advertisement for the Championship at Bramall Lane.
Some of Middlesbrough’s play in the first half was a joy.
Sheffield United also contributed. “
“Sheffield United looked good today and for most of the game stood out. They can do us a favour in a few weeks against Coventry. Their forward line was impressive but clearly defensively is what let’s them down.”
“Bamford led the line well for them all night i thought. He’ll be frustrated hes on the losing side and rightfully so.”
“I don’t think Coventry can play with the same level of intensity that Sheffield offered. Sheffield had a decent amount of confidence in that game because of their recent form but Coventry are lower in confidence.”
“I hope Sheff Utd really kick on now (with Coventry yet to visit Bramall Lane!)”
“Reminded me of a lot of games we’ve played against top teams at the Riverside, Sheff Utd played well and had few half chances, but we just had that bit of class, bit like Burnley and Leeds have done to us in the past.”
“Sheff Utd have made the mistake of trying to play football against us. Playing no low block against us is suicidal. Hopefully Coventry will do the same next week.”
“Helped us how attacking they were. You’re not playing Oxford this week boys.”
“They’ve picked up the third most points in the league over the last third of the season last 16 games they’re right up there.”
“I know, and we are still a much better side than them. The league is dross, Sheff Utd should be doing much better than they are but they aren’t because they are also dross.”
“They were standard championship huff and puff I thought. We dealt with their attacks pretty easily and only the quality of Hamer and Bamford got the better of us.”
“Sheff Utd are 16th in the league. Their home form is illusory. They beat a couple of bad teams – Oxford and Leicester, got a win against Birmingham who had 10 men for over 70 mins, and were outplayed by Ipswich but got the win. Wilder took over in September, they’ve won 12 and lost 10 since then, make that 11 after tonight.”
“Fair play Wilder, a very fair interview and very complimentary of boro. Even said the red was a red. Quite impressed with his assessment of the game I must say.”
“Wilder sounds utterly exhausted poor bloke. I almost feel a bit for him.”
“Just remember, he’s a liar.”
“If I were a Sheff Utd fan I’d think he was a terrible ref and favoured us on many occasions. Good that he got the Browne tackle right though, straight red all day long.”
“Im impressed with the level of passion from a club whos season is just as over as sheff weds”
