    Good performances all round, other than a sloppy 5 minutes defensively in the first half, where passes went astray. Sure DF will get a substantial fine for his comments - but it needed saying.

    We looked on it from minute 1, more like our pre March selves. Thought pretty much all the substitutes offered something tonight, with their cameos.

    Lifting the trophy at already relegated Plymouth. They may as well give us more tickets

    Not too long a journey for them to Swansea but a long way for the Blades on Saturday. They might travel on Friday or maybe fly down?

    I agree but you can see his distribution isn’t as good, which is why he hits it long more, however I believe it doesn’t finish “nil” with Mes in goal.

    Go to bed listen to…

    If Darlow was in the sticks all season instead of the French Stick, Leeds would be as certain of Premier League football next season as Southampton are of Championship football.

    I’m really not sure how that team is anywhere near to staying up, we won’t but, heh ho.

    In the meantime I honestly think we’ll breeze it now and we can all have a Woodstock summer :emoticon-0176-smoke

    Dan James injury is his hamstring, that will be a huge blow if he is out for more than a couple of games, he ran the show yesterday

    Weird that Schmidt a LB gets picked ahead of Largi to cover

    Are you saying that Meslier’s distribution is better!!! That French twat has cost us dearly plus he couldn’t distribute a pack of cards to players sat infront of him, Darlow No.1 keeper for me.

    Boro put a player on each edge of the box in an attempt to stop us playing short, it was like they’d practiced it all week forgetting we’d dropped Meslier.

    Darlows kicks to the line we’re pretty much spot on, the player got beat in the air a few times but they were pretty damn accurate kicks

    Don't forget they have to give the benefit of any doubt to the attackers,blind twats.

    Wonder if DF will get fined for his comments. Hope the linos calls are taken up with the EFL on formal basis though. Absolute shocker.

    In other news, Blades forums are melting down. Doing a 'the wheels have fallen off / sack the manager / WTF / we're not going up playing like this'. Sounds familiar...:bandit:

    Agree with you that Darlow is definitely No. 1 now, thought my second sentence made that clear. It’s two games running we’ve played long but @ristac reply probably explains that. With all the stress of watching us I hadn’t noticed the opposition press.
