    Yes, we had a bit of luck tonight but it's about time we did. Mind you it was only in the last 15-20 minutes that they got on top. I thought that we were probably slightly the better side for the first hour, despite what the commentator kept saying. If you forget 5 mins. that is.

    Got away with that ..... still a win’s a win ..... about time we had some luck. Highlights for me. Johnstone outstanding. Furlong played well. Back three of Ivanovic, Bartley and Ajayi looked solid. Gallagher outstanding first half ... faded second half. Pereira a bit in and out. Robinson was a nuisance.

    Agree with all that! Bartley really has stepped up!

    Sawyers still the weak link in my book and worried about Grants first touch and still looks rusty! Johnstone played well again!

    We needed some luck tonight and we need three more points next week too

    I’m pretty confident now that we can beat the odds and get more points than Derby got.
    Massive game now next weekend, win that and I think then we are in with a shout 🤞

    I agree! Gallagher will go far - absolute class!

    Personally, I think our three centre backs were exposed for a lack of pace tonight. Too often their strikers were getting in behind them too much and bar for some poor finishing and great goalkeeping, we could have be looking at a different result.

    Fortunate is the understatement of the year. If I were a Blades fan I would have been going berserk watching them last night. I know such a fan. But tough, that’s the way it goes sometimes. I like Bilic but one thing that consistently irritates me is his use of substitutes. It’s as if he has an alarm clock in his pocket that goes off after 60 minutes and come what way that is the signal to make changes. If there is a genuine injury or somebody is playing 5hite then OK. But not just for the apparent sake of it. I certainly would not havre taken Robinson off last night nor Grant at that stage. HRK did not play too bad when he came on but that is not the point. If is becoming very predictable.

    We rode our luck last night. Even ugly birds get a ride every now and again though. Really need to tighten up at the back or in true ugly bird fashion we'll get taken from behind next time out. Now brace yourself Al' because it's coming. Sawyers played well last night 😊 .

    Sawyers was ok in the first half but did little in the second in my opinion - too
    much sideways and backwards. If Sawyers did half as much as our 20 year in the name of Gallagher he would be OK. Sawyers offers no creativity or quick thinking like Krov
