Good luck to Blackburn

[Jedi boro]

I get this might not be a popular view point, but I think a good morale crushing defeat to a championship play off chasing side is just what the doctor ordered.

I’d rather Sheff Utd got to the final

I’d rather Sheff U won and a big Wembley day out to look forward too. Any distraction is good for us and it’s another game they will need to play. I think Blackburn may edge it though.

I get the distraction but when it gets to finals semi finals it works for not against you and it boosts morale of fans and team.

To miss out now said all that.

I wasn’t Sheffield tears

Given we could easily face Blackburn in the play offs I don't think it really matters who wins, either result could benefit us.

Maybe but I’m not convinced. Say they win today and then they hit a couple of Dodgy results in the league and then they have to play City or United in the Semi and get a thrashing they will feel like everything’s falling down on them and extra tired legs. Defo Sheff U win for me but I do take your point

 

[Jedi boro]

I just think losing at home to a fellow championship side will remind them of their league struggles and hopefully put pressure back on heck on and off the pitch.

Sheffield United win all the way for me.

Then brought back down to earth by Norwich on the 1st.

Stick the extra game in! Boom and bust!

 

[Chutney]

We don't really benefit from this game.

Even 120 gruelling minutes will be followed by an international break giving them (Sheff U) plenty of time to recover and refocus, even if the result doesn't go their way.

The distraction and extra effort (and potential heartbreak) of a semi final feels like the only way their run works in our favour.

You may have beaten Blackburn,
but.....
