Would prefer Youri Tielmans. Possibility with the Belgium link ??

Working in Sheffield, this is the kind of crap I've had to listen to all season. There was a thread earlier in the season where some posters (could have been Claret Tony) said they had lived in Sheffield and never really warmed to either Sheffield team. It's a weird one as I feel the same. Don't ask...

I left 15 mins before the end. As a result, the journey back to Sheffield took me 1hr 10. Also went last time when it was 5 -0 and stayed until the end.....it took me nearly 3 hours. Last night was well worth it.

I thought we looked a lot more dangerous with him on the pitch in the first half than without him in the second.

A possible chant for our little Welsh wizard... Oohhhhhhhh Bellemys a claret, he wears a claret hat, He used to be a b@st@rd, and then he thought sod that, He's joined the claret army, He's Vincent's right hand man, And when we reach the Premier league we'll sing this song all night. repeat I'll get...

Thanks for the responses

Sheff_bfc

Ordered tickets for tomorrow which haven't been delivered. I need to set off to manchester tonight. Is there a collection system in such cases? Any help much appreciated.

Sheff_bfc

I'll save my celebrating for Monday morning when I walk into work and say nothing. I'll be surrounded by blades fans so I'm planning on walking around like Charlie big potatoes

Wow. I'm speechless. Super parenting by the sounds of it. What's wrong with people?!!

A long time since I was offered a fight after the game on the way back to the car. Still trying to get my head round the fan who was removed from the CFS by stewards and then required another steward to look after his child. Seen this a few times this season - incredible Was it a Coventry fan in th...

Sheffield United away as its 25 mins walk from my house. Failing that......Sheffield Wednesday away

Sheff_bfc

I liked this one the best....

Fair warning now, if you can't post without having a pop at other people you'll be taking a time out. This isn't the time or place to ride a high horse.

Just taken this from The Sheffield Star website. Sounds like they're in a similar position with team selection.... Although United will welcome Anel Ahmedhodzic, their marquee summer signing, back from suspension against the visitors from Turf Moor, doubts over the availability of Jack Robinson, Jam...

Does anyone know if the trams are affected by the rail strike?

Not that I'm aware of. I used the service out towards meadowhall last week and it was all running fine.

Sheff_bfc

Forgot to say the tram runs from meadowhall to the main station. Takes a bit longer but gets you to the same place.

Sheff_bfc

I know the trains look dodgy for this fixture but has anyone parked on Meadow hall shopping centre and got the 8 minute train into Sheffield? With it being right next to the motorway looks like a quick getaway? This is a good service. Get off at the main train station then its an easy 10 min walk t...

Didn’t know that so thanks for pointing out. If its like the Kelham Island one there will be great music but worse beer than the Cat had so no doubt some will like to pop in and not others.

I didn't know either until I walked past at the weekend

Sheff_bfc

For those wanting a decent pint and nice atmosphere, The Stag on Psalter Lane is a safe bet. It's easily walkable down to the ground too (go straight down cemetery Rd) if you wanted to park near the pub. Its free parking on the side streets off Psalter Lane and it's about a 10 min walk to the ground.

Devonshire Cat has reopened as a new bar - Indie go.

It would have been different if it had been dog ****. Nowt worse that standing in dogger.

Left-footed central defenders who can play in a four or a three, who are comfortable on the ball and in the final third are pretty hard to find and are highly valued in modern formations. If they can play as a wing-back as well...then they are even more valuable. Add in PL experience... Bring back ...

Sheff_bfc

Madness isn't it, 4 games in, a new manager and team still gelling, and we've only lost at Watford unlucky, a team that were in the PL along with us last season. Patience is required, did folks really think it would all come together in a few weeks, far more hopeful signs than gloomy ones. And we h...

If female footballers are so easily offended, they need to man up and grow a pair.

Quality. Sat on my sun bed in Spain and spat my beer out laughing at that one.

Sheff_bfc

More than happy. Loving what I've seeing and excited to see what this squad can do.

Sheff_bfc

Apologies if already suggested, but could Man City's new signing come straight out on loan to us as additional defensive backup? Sergio Gomez from Anderlecht.

I’m having a brilliant time on holiday as ever but always get that sadness of realising I won’t be on a game when away. Won’t be the same waiting for twitter updates whilst queuing for a Disney World ride.

Not to mention the irritating ear worm music that plays EVERYWHERE. Chin up mate

No famous links for me, however my girlfriend's half cousin is Tom Felton aka Draco Malfoy from Harry Potter.

That's because if you read this forum, the Burnley fanbase is 50% coke head 50% coffin dodger.

Saw a few bits and pieces on social media asking why the women's team doesn't play at the Turf. Seemed a bit hypocritical / bandwagon jumping to me. They don't get the attendance to justify it, the club would lose more money on it than they do now. You could go watch them play for free in Leyland l...

£20 million is a ridiculous fee.

How are we supposed to find a Championship player who can give us 0 goals and 1 assist in 18 months for such a ludicrously small amount of money?

I might be way off here but I'm picking up a bit of sarcasm in this message.

Well with the 8 we've signed so far we only need O'Hare and a couple of strikers and we have a completely new team

While we're at it, let's have a new stadium too.

Sheff_bfc

Agree completely. Pace literally said he could have appointed someone who might have been seen as more ‘immediate promotion’ type, but he felt VK was a far better fit overall for what they want and their vision. VK has since said they will go for promotion but it isn’t an absolute necessity. Bellam...

that used to be the way but there have been loads of deals reported the other way around this summer

Nice one. Didn't know that. Fingers crossed we get sorted on both fronts.

I'm sure we have agreed personal terms with him, it's agreeing the fee with Coventry that's the problem.

I might be way off the mark here, but doesn't a club agree a fee first and then personal terms?

I have no issue with who or what he was as a player. He did a job and did it well. He's well thought of and like others have said, he showed some balls to face his demons as he did. I'm sure he's back to his best and if he can get under the skin of a few of our opponents from the side lines as he di...

Didn't he get the most clean sheets in a single season in their entire history last season

He wasn't sure of the exact stats but one of the group made a similar point last night.

Sheff_bfc

My father in law is a Wednesday season ticket holder. Said he’s a decent shot stopper but terrible with his feet. Doesn’t sound like what Kompany is looking for. I was at Owlerton dogs stadium last night. The general consensus amongst the 20 Wednesday fans I was with was......I'd drive him back to ...

I thought it was clear as a bell , he meant that Burnley was the best choice overall for him.

Completely agree. Have no issue at all with his word choice and thought he came across very well. Welcome Vincent and good luck big man!

Sheff_bfc

You're not alone on this one. I feel exactly the same! I went to Turkey a couple of years ago and there was a group of scousers and their kids - 2 or 3 families away together I think it was. Every night when they went out, the men and kids would be wearing their Liverpool shirts........cringe!!!!

Interesting read. I've lived in Sheffield for nearly 20 years and never heard of it.

Sheff_bfc

Perhaps we need someone with a drum at each game. Ensure it keeps to a nice steady beat.

Sheff_bfc

For me the team will be Derby. OOC players will be brilliant at that level & Dyche could negotiate whatever terms ( control ) he wishes with the new owners. The more I read theories like this, the more I think they could well have something in them. Will be interesting to see how opinions/feelings ...

Sheff_bfc

Jesus, there's some sensitive people on here!

Do you honestly think this is Dyche just enjoying a few beers with the lads? Nah, he's simply playing a game!

Shows a real lack of class for me. Almost like he's split up from his girlfriend and wants to say, "Look at me, look at me. I'm OK. I'm over it!" Arrogant, pathetic.
