“In this rare Thursday night Premiership game, I can’t see Bruce’s men “steeling” any points as Sheffield “forge” ahead & “press” on in their quest for a European place. Sheffield will have the “bar”set too high. In their well “galvanised” team. Newcastle will hand the games to Sheffield on a “plate” as Newcastles “slag” of a manager looks on helpless.” “Tough game with their form.” “They’re a much better team than us imho. Having watched them a few times this season, they’re so joined up with a clear system and game plan.” “They’re seem like a genuinely decent team from the little I’ve seen of them, so away from home will be a tricky one.” “they’ve looked really quite good from what I’ve seen. Can’t imagine how we’d get anything there” “They play decent football, we will get carved open.”

“They are a much better team than us! they are so intense we will be blown away within the first 30 mins at their place” “Same as what others have said I think they’ll be too organised and too aggressive for our counter style to work well against them.

I vaguely remember we were linked with their boss quite heavily over the summer. It’s a real shame we didn’t get him.” “Wilder has really done a great job there. The whole club has great momentum at the moment.” “A team with actual organisation and a perfect understanding of how they play in every single area.

The exact sort of team that exposes Steve Bruce’s clueless setup and instructions.

They’ll beat us as comfortably as Norwich and Villa did.” “against teams that really make an effort to play a more intricate or precise style, which tend to be the better teams, our 11 men in the box tends to give them more problems and we can then end up nicking a result. The mid level teams that tend to have a more balanced approach that is more direct with decent organisation, make us look silly. Think we’ll get ran through worse than the Villa game.”

“Am done predicting what team will turn up. We’re capable of beating anyone in this league on our day but with a few good results, the attitude shifts and then back down to earth with a bump.

We haven’t had a captain in the team for a very long time now who would or could drive the other players on to better things. The manager certainly can’t” “3-0 home win. Tactical plan and proper gameplan meets ‘slap em on the back and get em fired up’.” “If we win this game I’ll rip my dick off and serve it alongside some cheesy chips in a Sunderland pub.

We are gonna get battered.” “They haven’t lost in last 6 games, maybe they’re due one. But can’t see us getting anything, esp if we treat it like Villa game.” “I think this will be worse than at villa”
