    You’re not. I get an allergy every time I watch it. Which is once a week or so. I wasn’t aware until now that allergies could be transmitted through phone screens.

    Watched this a few times and wondered did Sky film an alternative showing Sheffield legends, interviews etc just in case the match finished with them winning.

    To me they've gone out on a limb showing this Sunderland angle, sitting in their end, having JD as a guest and not one from the Blades.

    Might be just my strange thought process, anybody got a view?

    Did anyone else notice in our 3 play-off games none of the keepers played passes short when clearing their areas.
    They all went long with goalkicks etc...ensuring no mistakes made in such a dangerous area.
    Don't remember Patto doing that during the normal season.

    Think Patto might have got his knickers in a twist once, very early in the final, but think you're right apart from that.

    Good question. They probably did something I suppose, then just got rid of the footage.
