Always lovely to see managers speaking to substitutes. Warms the #@&%!les.

Just done a search. This was it. Appears the name was used up until at least 1979. Unreal.

Goal! Game over!

Would have been an odd coincidence if you looked round and saw lok and sparky on the hooks beside you.

But strangely apt

And a certain irony if Larry was there sharpening his scythe.

Bruno is SUCH a problem though.

Kind of got the mental image of sparky, lok and poppy hanging on meathooks in a barn in the late 70's now.

the irony being that he's not the sharpest tool?

Probably telling him where the leaving drinks were happening.

good one mate

It’s a total coincidence that Rashford doesn’t play and we actually score 4 goals and make plenty of chances.

Barn tea break. Larry top left.

Still feel for Coventry, that's for you sky blues

This is a better result than the last time we played Sheffield United at home, nobody can take that away from EtH

Full steam ahead Europa!!

I enjoyed that tonight. 6 goals, end to end, and a few confidence boosting performances.

None of our first choice defenders in their positions, a corpse in midfield, so we were open at the back, but we varied the tactics and were quite direct at times.

Bruno was great. Casemiro had a good game. Amad did enough to start ahead of Antony next game. They all did enough to keep rashford out of the team.

A good night.

Amad is quality. Has to get a run now.

Bruno "the problem" Fernandes though

Having said that, Sheffield United really are every bit as bad as we thought.

But we will take whatever morale boosts we can get at the moment
