[Albion] Just how bad has Sheffield United's start been?

[Bozza]

The worst ever it seems. Even if they turn things around today and win, they'd be joint worst after 12 games with...

Everton 1994-95 - 4 points
QPR 2012-13 - 4 points

A whole bunch of sides has had a mere 5 points after 12 games, including Aston Villa (2015-16), Crystal Palace (2017-18) and Fulham (2018-19).

Even the 11-points-in-a-season Derby side of 2007/08 had 6 points at this stage.

So, looking forward to next week, we're ****ed aren't we?

If they can take half decent free kicks we will lose.

 

[Is it PotG?]

They will give Man Ure a good go.

Or corners

You know.

We all know when and where their first three points is coming

Fine margins, they don't get stuffed only losing games by the odd game. They need a striker or a manager who will gamble playing two or three up top.

Seem to recall we were the exact same odds as Shefield United to stay up / go down before the start of the season. Think there may have even been a little bit of a debate on here as to whether the bookies odds was a reflection of us getting better or them getting worse. Guess we know the answer now

Similar to us then?

Nothing surer. Wonder who we'll blame for this one?

They’ve completed 70 passes in 60 minutes of football today.

 

[Change at Barnham]

Ollie McBurnie going off injured with a damaged shoulder might hopefully make him doubtful for next week.

2-0 Saints

It will be interesting to see if they can start attacking now.

Fulham and Sheffield Utd this week. What could POSSIBLY go wrong?!

I'm not sure that Wilder will be sacked as they are already down so might as well start thinking about life in the Championship...

Interesting that only 11 games in and some people seem more focused on the failings of Sheffied Utd and Fulham.

Masking what a pretty poor start we've made? Seems like some are relying on the failings of others already to keep us up rather than our own inadequacies.

It feels like each and every season we start by saying we can’t rely on 3 teams to be worse than us, and then proceed to rely on 3 teams being worse than us.

Make or break for us these 3 games 6/7 points and things will look a lot better
