For those not able to watch online, fantastic half.
At our best (about 40% of the half) we're magnificent. Brilliant passing and movement. And when we've not got the ball we're solid, organised and working hard. Sure Sheffield Utd have had a handful of chances, but all from set pieces. Their tippy-tappy football is getting them nowhere. Ched Evans - who retailed at how many million - is being marked out of the game by Robbo and Ellis. The only way I can see the blades scoring is from a set piece.
We should be 2 up, Stevens missed a bit of a sitter after Howe rounded the keeper and squared it to him. But we are very worthy of our lead. Let's keep this up!
Oh, and if Stephen Quinn tries to win another cheap free kick by throwing himself at the turf, I'm personally going to run on the pitch and rip his ginger beard off. Rant over!

Brilliant stuff,, think Howe should have gone down when he rounded the keeper.

Great performance to watch so far...even better with Dutch commentary!! Very high tempo so we'll tire, but we can definitely do this!

Agree with Jeff, its set pieces which are their only joy. Our passing, at times, is being over complicated, but largely we're doing ok.
Referee seems to be doing his best to help them out, but has evened it up slightly as the half wore on.
Loads of us here, singing some stupid songs, but making a hell of a racket.
Matt.

Unbelievable Jeff...and other Gulls fans. Just home, thought we'd be a few down, such a lovely surprise. Have only read this page tho', if I'm jinxing our performance will have to go out again
COYY!!!
