Robbie Loving Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 My 3 bolds - 1 - rubbish 2 - rubbish 3 - If you'd not been lucky with the rebound off the post straight to Quinn in the game at the lane you'd have lost that game 2-1 etc. etc. etc. And speaking of Quinn - what a dispicable cheat. The ref called the game to a halt because you had two men down (wrongly in my eyes). We were between your 18 yard box and the corner flag with 2 v 2. And when play resumes through a drop ball Quinn runs 30 yards towards our goal and plays it back to the middle of our half. That's just pathetic. He should have put it straight out for a throw there or played it from where the drop ball was. I wouldn't be be proud of him if he were in my team. I didn't want to go into supposed cheating.... But as you brought it up.... Your player went down in injury time, without even a touch. Play was stopped for 1 and a half minutes and not added on to the end.... That is only one highlighted part.... There's more. We can all go with finger pointing, and forget the actions of our own players. So don't start with the all high and mighty as they're as guilty as each other. As for the 3 pen claims being 'rubbish' care to elaborate? One was a body check, clear penalty, another the owls player was trying to make out with Evans.... The other Williamson went down easy, but there's still contact. Had they been outside the area, all 3 would have been given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missymoo73 Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Now now Missy...I've posted on here maybe half a dozen times since Chrimbo, and we weren't pants then. I've also been quite complimentary about United today too, that's the team in red and white stripes if you were wondering having not seen them since Cantors were the sponsors! Who ??? The cheek !!!! Now bugger off for a few more weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember any incidents that would have led to a penalty being awarded for either team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTeeOwls Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 What a day........ 4 points from this so-called footballing side, not bad considering the form we've shown in previous weeks.... That HOOF chant LOL......The irony when United started spraying the ball in every direction, the pressure had got to them... One thing i witnessed yesterday is, United go missing in the big games... fingers crossed for that all Sheffiekl play-off final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pink2Bubble Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 I think the game was refereed very well. It did seem that Utd were trying to get to Semedo...maybe if he took a booking it would help them in midfield. Players were going down very easily and it seems the referee got used to it. Still doesnt mean I agreed with every decision but overall I think he managed it well. Especially the Jones incident. I expected him to be sent off until the guy next to me said it was a reaction to the Utd players actions...I guess the ref was told this. Throwing the ball in Redas face was also petty, he throws at his hands and its a free kick as the ref pointed out. There were plenty of bookings out there for both sides but I think the ref, for one, noted the fixture for what it is. How many times has a derby gone by without a single card? I think Wednesday defended well throughout until the last 5 minutes. Who had the free header at the end? The free kick was very unlucky too. Regarding the penalty shouts, I think they were looked for them. Whenever anybody goes down in the area you dread the refs decision but in my opinion he got it right, nothing in it. If I see them again, I'd honestly say whether or not I still think he got it right but we've had very low coverage of the game this time so have only seen the free kick and goal. United DID hoof it hell of a lot compared to what we are led to believe on here, difference is I think Wednesday have the players to deal with it where Utd dont. I was happy to go in 0-0 half time but always feared Utd would get one so for O'Grady to score was a relief. People say 'terrible game' and 'scruffy match'. Well its a derby, a Sheffield derby...youre not gonna get 'proper' football played, its more about the passion and desire to win. It seemed Wednesday wanted it just a little bit more than Utd, maybe it was more of a need with all the speculation and league position. I did find the final whistle strange though, nobody knew what was happening. But it was Wednesdays day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another poster (neutral) posts on here that they believed United teased Wednesday round the box with intricate play that had us tied up. I don't entirely disagree - but it was clear that there was little intention to use this for footballing purpose - you were simply trying to draw us into free kicks (which almost worked) by ridiculous diving so you could shoot/hoof it into the box. Not the ethics of a great footballing side. I'll elaborate on the penalities when I see them in more detail. No doubt some refs would have been 'conned' by the diving. Fortunately not this one.

twotoneted Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 No one can take it away from Wednesday this was a very good result for them, I am sure they would have rather had the nine points United got out the last four games and after the novelty of yesterdays result has gone the reality of possibly another season at this level will set in.

Yep they had to win thier cup final and did but still see nothing but the playoffs for them....Charlton are now out of sight and looks like 4 teams battling it out for 2nd place but one team has played more games than anyone else and their goal difference is horrendous.... Lets see how the Blades bounce back with 2 home games to play and see where we are at on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the days/games that make history, United fail each an everytime..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
