“The Battle of who will get to their 7th unbeaten run…. Sheff Utd are unbeaten in six. We’re six unbeaten at The Hawthorns…”
“Bring on the gallows humour as we watch Sheffield Utd humble us.”
“A really comprehensive 2-0 defeat which is the straw that breaks the camels back for Patel and Nestor.”
“One loss will do it, but I don’t think this particular loss will be the one that does it…”
“I just hope the fans do their bit tomorrow and hammer Mason and demand his sacking for 90 mins nice and loudly.
Worst case, we see him sacked, best case, it inspires the players to put in a shift to save their mate Ryan and we win”
“Draw the worst outcome as it again delays the inevitable.
A win – we get 3 points.
A defeat – we ditch this moron.
A draw – we bundle along in this apathy.
2-2 and another crap game for all concerned.”
“Obviously we will give them 2 goals head start.”
“I predict we get an early goal, maybe another Heggers header inspiring much confidence from fans.
Mason then shits himself, having rarely been in such a good position, and we sit back, but not deep enough for him and we see him consistently chastising the players for having the audacity to go beyond the halfway line shaking his head at every forward ball.
The inevitable happens Sheff U get a goal in the 46th minute leaving home fans scratching their head but more importantly keeping the boos at bay due to pure apathy.
Second half we get absolutely blasted and the game finishes 3-1 – the boos erupt but Mason blames moments and somehow he manages to keep his job.
We all go home having experienced the full 25/26 match day package of elation ending in frustration.”
“3 nil at half time, we manage to pull 2 back early in the 2nd half, before the visitors grab a heartbreaking 4th in the 18th minute of injury time.
A fan protest sees a weak effort of breaking the Halfords glass doors.”
“Feels like the ideal time for a sacking, eight day gap to our next game before you risk sacking him in the middle of a hectic run of festive fixtures and making it tough for the incoming manager to have an instant impact due to reduced time on the training pitch. Conversely, fixtures come thick and fast and until league fixtures go back to normal on the 16th January we could potentially waste five league games and our FA Cup tie. Lose tomorrow, he has to go.”
“Wilder will be far too clever for Mason in game.”
“Wilder will know exactly what needs to be done to win this game and sadly Mason won’t have a clue”
“Mensa Mason 0 Dumb Chris 3”
“God knows what the team selection will be but I predict we go behind and Mason gets caught in the headlights and reacts far too late.”
“Looking like a loss given they’ve remembered how to play and we are, for very large portions of every game, absolutely terrible.
So I’ll say 1-1 cos it’s the Albion!
Mason won’t be sacked even if we get spanked.”
“I’d rather we get behind him and the team
I thought the poisonous atmosphere when we were 0-2 v Swansea was embarrassing.”
“When we go for it we look like contenders, when we hold back we look like Sheffield Wednesday’s whipping boys… We need to find the middle ground”
“I don’t even care, sadly”
