“Theres not exactly a degree of excitement around the club or place at the minute.
Its a pretty negative view all over social media and speaking to people.
Club have done it yo themselves. I really hope we add this week and dont add a couple and let some first 11 players leave.
They need to inject some hope and enthusiasm into the place. “
“I’ve had a bit of the stuffing knocked out of me in recent years by gradual decline and Ill not be losing any sleep if I miss this… Sad as I used to go to everything but that’s my thought process these days.”
“Happy with the draw. Its only cup. Hope we all enjoy a good neet art”
“Ohh well at least we got past the 1st Round!”
“Good opportunity to make it a perfect 10 without victory. “
“He’s got to play a stroGood opportunity to make it a perfect 10 without victory. ng side.
It’d be suicide to play a reserve side & get battered at home in front of a packed away end.”
“If it’s their reserves and kids vs our first team then we should give them a game”
“Sheff U’s reserve side would probably make the playoffs in L1 to be fair. If we play a second string from our threadbare squad we’ll get a proper tonking. “
“No chance of second replays a la 5th round 1990
FA Cup saga – they were the days! Lost in the end but what a battle. Getting home to watch it on Sportsnight
Great kit too.”
“Oakwell sell out”
“Nah they barely sell out their allocation for league games”
“They aren’t exactly known for their crowds…
They once took 800 to Oakwell”
“they never seem to come in numbers unlike their neighbours in S6 who would have demanded at least two thirds of Oakwell. “
“They#ve sold out”
“Cheap (compared to championship games) tickets, local game, very good chance of them winning, expected them to shift plenty. Albeit not that many – considering they’ve brought fewer than half of that for some league games in recent times. “
“Well it is their Cup final we’d have done the same if it had been our final”
“Impressive tbf – makes up for when they brought about 800 when Adrian Heath was in charge. “
“Glad to see the armchair era hasn’t affected them yet.”
“will make for a decent atmosphere”
“Probably be more away fans than home fans. “
“. TBH, I’ll be there and won’t be the slightest bit embarrassed/concerned whatever the attendance is. I’ll be focused on the game and looking for a marked improvement without any expectation of the result. I’ll leave crowd watch to others, especially Dee dars, it’s their thing isn’t it? “
“I think they can sense a slaughter unfortunately! “
“Sheffield Utd are a huge club”
“Loaf of rubbish would definitely have been 4/5ths and a giant screen at Hillsborough for the other 35k for a game of little importance”
“I’ve read the comments on their forum, and its some cretins posting the usual ignorant garbage. Saying things like Barnsley inbreds, doing things with their 14 year old sisters, and having 6 fingers etc.
Real intelligent stuff that we’ve come to expect from Sheffield’s finest fans.”
