Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 1h[I haven't followed the reaction particularly but] I thought it was a bit of slack performance rather than anything, lot of bad decisions / executions in final third which could / should have been more goals. But eh, it happens, and plenty of reasons for it as you've said below. Not upset by 3-1 110

Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Not a very clean performance by England there. 3-1 probably means they have to take the second leg at least semi-seriously 000

Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Also hit woodwork three times v Durham but at least we had the good sense to put four shots past the goalkeeper too 010
Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I'm sure every fan thinks their team have been unlucky but I really do think United are millimetres away from having 6-7 more points from their opening games. They hit the woodwork twice again yesterday at 0-0 (including this one), inside of the post against Leicester at 0-1, same against Wolves... 100
Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 04/10/2026I don't know why, on a pitch specifically designed to play football, but games always look incredibly hard work here 010
Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 04/10/2026No Gonzalez or Barmore = this game is going to be quite, quite painful viewing unless you enjoy seeing the Patriots get a shoeing, which I acknowledge is a large proportion of the NFL viewership 010

Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 30/09/2026If Man Utd don't drop a hammer on Durham tonight like they did to us last week then I'm going to be very annoyed. This is a team that was rushing to take injury time corners at 10-1 010

Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 29/09/2026Goooood morning, wrote about a super performance from United that lifts them off the bottom of #WSL2, and also how the Blades targeted the left side of Durham's defence with a rotating cast of runners from deep: 020

Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Feels strange seeing that the shot count was only 20-19 in United's favour yesterday as that really was a battering. The Blades racked up 3.86xG to Durham's 0.83 - hopefully an indicator that we can indeed be a team that's a cut above the bottom sides this year. 021
Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 28/09/2026Still buzzing this morning after yesterday's win. I get that Durham look likely to be the worst team in the league but it was so important we put them to the sword. Lucy Quinn has jumped to the top of WSL2's chances created stats too, pretty good 171

Ben Meakin @bnmkn.bsky.social · 26/09/2026They've come out pretty strong this half but I just thought they'd have much more control in games than they have in the ones I've watched so far. Attack and defence looks great on paper 010
