Hopefully we'll show a bit more GUILE in unlocking SU's highly effective park-the-bus anti-football than we showed at the Amex. No pressure then Alexis...
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
[Albion] I feel supremely confident we will get a positive result at Sheffield United.

Only thing Lewis has to worry about is the ghost of Billy Sharp haunting him after the savage murder of 2012!

This I'm afraid .... we lack the pace and physicality to deal with the likes of Sheff U.
Great. This thread now means we'll be 2-0 down in 10 minutes, the game will be over as a contest by half-time. We'll rally for the last ten minutes, create some opportunities that will lead to people thinking 'we could have snatched it at the end if those chances went in'. Potter will talk about learning from it.
Or, if we're lucky, only one down, come back to grab a point late on, then get told that the spirit the team showed, and the fight back will be the turning point. The boys'll be able to take that result and really push on next time...

Obviously we all give Sheff Utd huge credit. They’ve had an amazing season already.
But I know what you guys mean. We have to break this bloody bad run at some point. There has to be a game where we FINALLY capitalise on our mega possession and take our chances.
Even if we’re not a top 6 team we have to give someone a good pasting, at least once this season. Newcastle have got battered in some games yet grab undeserved wins. That has to be us at some point. Mathematically it has to be.
Hopefully tomorrow.

Obvs! It talked its way out of a 3 from 12 point return from the easiest run of games this season.

No point going if you don't feel positive, I'm not going.
I don’t feel positive and I’m going
Walked out in disgust - back to the concourse twice at West Ham. We scored both times, so I’ll do it again tomorrow

I too share the optimism. I don't know why because we've been absolutely shit for the last 4 games and they're maintaining their good form. Also we didn't pay a glove on them in the first game. Should be an easy home win, but for some reason I've got a funny feeling they might slip up tomorrow. We can't be shit forever

Don’t know why but before I saw this thread I was feeling confident for some reason.
Hope it doesn’t all end in tears.

I am sure there was a thread before the home game against Sheff U that was equally (or even more) confident of a result.

Hope. It’s the hardest emotion to contend with! It’s weird isn’t it, I reckon we’re going to sneak a win today too. Absolutely no evidence other than gut feeling and blind optimism but hey, sometimes that’s all yer need! Come on you super seagulls!!

Reasons to feel confident of victory 1) I shall be wearing a new lucky shirt 2) The son's girlfriend will be in attendance - She has only ever seen us win FACT!

It’s a win for us today I’m with the OP

I'm optimistic that we'll get at least a point. Sheffield United will be starting to turn into a complacent mood with Europe possibly beckoning.
Football Focus was good with the six relegation candidates each represented by a fan. Anyone on here for the Seagulls? I wanted to smack that Watford fan by the end - whoops! Someone had already beaten me to it! I was impressed with the Bournemouth fan the most with his view on Eddie Howe, saying pressure is going out of the football league. This doesn't even compare although financially I guess it does now.

Not optimistic at all. Feel we may loose 3-0.

Was somewhat confident of scraping something, but not so much after seeing the line-up. Hope for best. Im not a football manager, so who knows. I still prefer potterball to what we were doing previously.
