SITTING DOWN WITH<br />

W E S Wes Foderingham<br />

FODERINGHAM<br />

Wes Foderingham<br />

believes the experience<br />

within the dressing room<br />

could prove to be crucial to<br />

<strong>United</strong>’s hopes of securing<br />

automatic promotion this<br />

season.<br />

Speaking honestly and openly<br />

ahead of welcoming promotion<br />

chasing <strong>Watford</strong> to Bramall Lane<br />

at the weekend, the 32-year-old<br />

stopper has called for calm and<br />

perspective despite a couple<br />

of untimely defeats this month<br />

which has seen the advantage<br />

between themselves and<br />

Middlesbrough reduced. Wes<br />

though didn’t shy away from<br />

accepting the importance of<br />

returning to winning ways this<br />

afternoon, whilst acknowledging<br />

Slaven Bilic’s Hornets will prove<br />

another tough nut to crack.<br />

A blank midweek in the<br />

schedule has been used<br />

wisely revealed the Blades<br />

number one, with boss Paul<br />

Heckingbottom using the extra<br />

time on the training ground to<br />

iron out minor issues that have<br />

hampered performances in<br />

defeats to Middlesbrough and<br />

Millwall, but Wes feels returning<br />

to S2 today, followed by<br />

Wednesday’s Emirates FA Cup<br />

tie against Tottenham Hotspur,<br />

will hopefully provide some<br />

welcome home comforts.<br />

Finally, and unsurprisingly,<br />

Wes is delighted to have<br />

proved his worth between<br />

the sticks in South Yorkshire,<br />

establishing himself as the club’s<br />

first-choice goalkeeper under<br />

Heckingbottom, but he's also<br />

keen to praise and welcome<br />

the support he receives from<br />

those closest to him, namely<br />

coach Matt Duke and Wales<br />

international Adam Davies.<br />
