Tough game, Bolton haven't been doing too well recently and we are awful away from home. It has 0-0 written all over it, but I would gladly take that. Sounds like there's alot of Blades fans making the short trip, a good vocal backing like normal expected. Hopefully young Quinn will be back in the side, and we'll have to wait and see who mr Warnock puts up front. I'd go with Stead and Nade, with Shelton on the bench, then bring him on with 20 minutes left and let him have a go at their defence.
i say 2-1 bolten. sheffield aint doing to well at mo are they and bolton are in a uefa cup space i tink!!!
I disagree. Sheffield are doing very well, there 11 points clear and are looking good for promotion. I look forward to seeing them in Conference North next season. On the other hand, Sheffield United are on a bit of a bad run, though only because of the side we have played. I expect a defeat but will be elated with a point, also hope to see Shelton make his debut. I predict 2-1 to Bolton. Also whats the latest with Kilgallon? Is he still alive?
The last thing I heard about Kilgallon is that he's bruised his ankle bone, and trying to gain match fitness. I'd be surprised if he plays any part at all in this season, I look forward to seeing him though.
About a week ago I was very pessimistic about this fixture but the closer we get to it the more confident i'm becoming. Davies will be back to something approaching fitness and Andranik should start.
I think we can get something out of this game as long as we approach the game with a positive attitude and focus on our strengths instead of theres. Im hoping Luton Shelton can make his debut as well, scored for his country other day so he is pushing for a place !
Aaah but did you here his comments following the 2-2 draw at The Lane earlier in the season .. "We should really be beating teams like Sheffield."

F*ckinghell. He should be ok for Newcastle at least. Jagielka and Davis at the back at Bolton I would imagine.
