I thought we were very good last week. Keep it tight, attack only when an opportunity presents itself, take your chance. We executed that with aplomb, a real professional performance.
Most their shots were from outrageous positions. I can't remember any from a genuinely dangerous ara where you're thinking they should have scored. I'm aware some people demand to see 1000 passes, 100 shots and 10 goals every game, but they need to realise football isn't about that. Football is about winning, which is exactly what we did.
I agree , a win away was needed under any circumstances no complaints there , I'm just not rocking up today expecting to brush forest aside based on anything I saw last week- they had several good shooting opportunities from around 14-16 yards which a lot better team would have buried , luckily they had a team wearing Grosickis shooting boots
Bah , Its more a worry of the 96.9 frequency in which not knowing If were in with a shot that bothers most , Or the 5 to 6 minutes out in time lapses that reflects their goal shots , but you've added a 14-16 yard element to the equation now as well. I'm worried.
There Is a Foresteir's Disease Support Group in the N/E Stand today, mainly made up of bent over , pain riddled , supporters. Check Em out.
We've had a big decline because of the petulance of the Allams. The fact that people are even saying 'wow Sheffield United are playing really good football now' says it all.

Fans are reminded that a minute’s applause will be held ahead of today's home game against Nottingham Forest in memory of our former striker Les Mutrie. Les, a fans’ favourite on the Boothferry Park terraces in the early 1980s, sadly passed away at the start of this month and Saturday is a chance to pay tribute to the man who scored 50 times in 132 appearances for the Tigers. Members of Les’ family are our special guests for the game
