    Great half, huge energy and determination, Blades looked shell shocked.

    Hells bananas! We've played a great first half of football. Every player putting in a decent shift, that's all we ask. More of the same second half please.

    What a different player dykes looks when he knows he has players in and around him. Makes challenging for the ball and flicking it on worthwhile. Think Chair, Willock and Roberts have supported him superbly

    There's a message there somewhere :biggrin:.
    Well, what a pleasant surprise that first half was.
    Chair running the game from a more central position, Willock linking up well, Roberts playing quite well and Dykes even looks like a proper centre forward.
    Sheffield will undoubtedly come out swinging 2nd half, but we've played really well there.

    Bit generous saying they have things to be happy about… first 5 minutes? They aren’t further behind? They are playing at the home of football?

    Just don't give them any time in 2nd half as they have looked dangerous on a couple of occasions....... More of the same lads......

    Wow, what a performance in that half ! That's what we've been crying out for, passion, cohesion and no shortage of quality. Chair has been outstanding and Willock although not back to scintillating best , has been much better. The 2 full backs have been superb and the defence hadn't been too bad. Dykes has absolutely run his bollocks off and caused their back line alot of problems. He deserves a goal for his efforts, God I hope he nabs one 2nd half. Dieng has been excellent and kept put the efforts they've had. Roberts, mmmm, still pony I'm afraid , mishit free chance to double our lead. Maybe get Adomah on for him in 2nd half and just tell him to run at them or Sinclair and just tell him to scare the **** out of them ! Critchley will win is all round if we can reproduce that for the 2nd half. Come on u rrrrrr's let's finish them off

    I expect Sheff to step it up this half but if we can repeat that performance then we will continue to dominate. You can see their confusion with our attacking four.

    A completely free role for Illy and he gets the ball more than any other player.
    Dykes has been excellent, although he still doesn't look like scoring.

    Before or after they get asked “what was your most memorable moment on this pitch?”

    To be honest if he played like that in more games and didn’t score but allowed those around him too I wouldn’t be too angry

    Best half I've seen from us in a long time, but we need to produce another as good to win this. VSport had us in a 4 2 3 1 before the start. Looks like it might be on the tele, but Is it?

    Really fluid isn't it?
    It sacrifices Tim, but is so much better.

    Thought he was going to get on the end of that cross from Roberts.

    Tim has gone about his business quite unnoticed to be honest, which isn't a bad thing really.
