Massive result....
....For both clubs!
....For both clubs!
Well done the Blades. Something tells me they won’t finish bottom of the table on the last day of the season. Think the bottom three places already spoken for though
I agree.
Can't think of a club that, on balance, will replace the Blades in the final bottom 3 with West Brom and Fulham, unfortunately.

No worries Newcastle will make a lady gasp try to get relegated
Blimey , West Brom must be poor
Does that mean Man Utd are as well ?
M M M Maybe

Yeah all you need is 9 wins from your final 16 ganes after getting 3 from your first 22 ??
Ab. So. Lute. Ley. No chance
STEAL for the BLADES
He doesn't currently even justify his salary.
What a great decision to sack Slaven Bilic, and replace him with Sam Allardyce.
Certainly good for the Blades who will be replaced at the bottom by West Brom.
Allardyce was finished ages ago, they must have got him cheap. He’s not doing a very effective job!
Bilic would've stayed around to rebuild in the championship. Sam will be off with his pockets full of m9ney as soon as he can!
It was our players that needed sacking... so many has beens in our squad. What did the board expect when we bought championship standard players to supplement the likes of Gibbs, Livermore, Philips, Hrk. Bilic didn’t do himself any favours with the players he insisted on buying, but also wasn’t backed. At least we will do everyone a favour by getting rid of big Sam for everymore
Bilic was even worse. He got 7 point in more games you idiots
Sam watch out for that trap door
Hey Big Scam, how ya doin' ?
A real tough scrap that Sheff Utd fully deserved to win
WBA look doomed

Well done Sheffield United. West Brom are in freefall and will probably replace the Blades at the bottom in the next few games.
Sheffield, West Brom and Fulham all going down.
Worst relegation battle ever.
Worst relegation battle ever.
United are going no where either so it makes no difference.
No probably about it.
It is looking grim for the bottom 3
From an Aston Villa fan to WBA fans, you're on your way back to your default little league where you belong, boing boing!!
Another masterpiece by Big Sam.It is quite success game after game to have nOt more than 25 to 30 % of posesion and no more than 5 shots on goal.If Bilic stayed at least we would be ahead of Fulham by now.As i said previously by the end of the season no more than 20 points gor WBA! Big Sam is doing miracle for sure but for his bank account only! GO TO RETIRMENT!!!!
The fat corrupt,creatively bankrupt excuse of a man will leave before the end of the season .. to protect his “I’ve never been relegated” claim to fame...Whoever is responsible for hiring this pariah of football should resign now...

I agree entirely. God knows why he was appointed kin the first place. Maybe he bribed the club?

You're talking utter nonsense. The team was disorganised under Bilic, who - IF YOU CHECK his record - hasn't really been a success anywhere, bar one season at West Ham (& their fans slated him when he left). You may have missed the collapse near the end of last season, needing a minor miracle to get promoted directly instead of the playoffs? This is a Championship team, struggling in EPL.
He won't retire because he'll lose his payoff for being sacked
Congratulations Sheffield. Hope you stay up!

There both going back to the Championship.
Big Crooked Sam is going down ????????????
Love it.
Love it.
Maybe he could buy a manikini on the internet and offer his managerial services to Kazakhstan..

I wish they will stop calling him big Sam and call him fat Sam because that's what he is is he loves being called big sam and I hope he takes them down
"Crooked Sam"??? Actually vindicated later. Try and keep up . . .
Says a lot that apart from the obvious local rivals most teams in the Prem won't really care one way or another usually, but not that Fraudadyce is there everyone wants them to go down.
Sheff U will pay for their start. Think they'll end up closer to safety than they are now, but too big a gap to claw back, even with this result.

Less Than Big Sam, hahaha what a joke. I'm just really sorry for the WBA supporters who have to endure such a crazy appointment.
Thx Skin, but that's nonsense.

Hard working and organized but lacking the talent for the PL. And that's just the two managers, Wilder and Big Sam. The two sets of players are absolutely talentless.
Not much of a genius are you mate? Or is it your armchair that's the clever one?!?
Great result but serious lack of creativity against a pretty poor WBA team. Impressed by the effort of the Blades and maybe they'll do better against a side that actually comes at them. Big win but need a lot more from them. Whatever happens they've been great for true fans over past few seasons and I suspect they'll be back. UTB
From an Aston Villa fan to WBA fans, you're on your way back to your default little league where you belong, boing boing!!
Don't worry when all your best players are sold next year you won't be far behind us enjoy your short stay in the premiership
WOW, what a transformation in the second half. Sheff Utd were superb, until after they took the lead, then all the old habits returned e.g. sitting back, passing the ball on the edge of their own area and passing it back to the keeper. What a massive difference three strikers made, there was purpose to their play and that is the best I've seen this season. Attack, Attack, Attack, Attack, Attack!
If Sheff Utd play with three strikers until the end of season and play with that same purpose and determination. They have a good chance of escaping relegation. Did we concede playing with three strikers? No! Get the ball forward pass it in the oppositions half not in our own half, get into the box and who knows what can happen. They don't like it up 'em! So proud of The Blades tonight!
That was a good game even though I think that West Brom let down themselves in the second half.
Sam watch out for that trap door
You know what l hope the blades stay up they have stuck with their Manager longer than Chelsea. They have not got trillions to spend but they are very honest in their endeavour .
I agree with sticking by the manager. Burnley did and Sean Dyche brought them back stronger after relegation; history repeating at Norwich now; Sheffield United should do the same.
Very well said..I hope they survive relegation..refreshing to hear some positives on here??
Yes to all that, although when you look at Ramsdale and Brewster they haven’t spent their millions very well at all
I just came to this report to comment the same thing. Hope they stay up, too. Go Wilder!
I could see it happening. They played very well against the top teams, and are now starting to pick up some points.
What an accolade - the best rock bottom team ever! That something else to add to their other unwanted records they have collected this season.
that's why they're in the position they're in doooooooooooooooooooooooh
Well said! Good luck to the Blades!
Great result. Top 4 is still mathematically possible.
Scam Allardown has a better ring?
Relegation special with Sheffield and West Brom hot candidates to go down. Allardyce is what he is a complete nobody.
This result confirms Ole's Man u are at least on a par with West Brom.
Disgraceful allowing teams like these in the premiership! Thankfully they’ll both soon be gone!
Why have i got this feeling you don't support your home town club , for example league 1 or lower and are one of those who support one of the top 4 but have never been to their home or even away games. Or would you rather an elite 6 team Prenier League
They earned the right to be there..Sheffield united were flying last season..injuries, covid!! Turdpool are struggling without dick van dyke..look how much the rest of their squad cost ..negative norman...

I’m a Leeds fan and I’m proper rooting for Sheff Utd. I’d love them to pull off the Great Escape. They were FLYING before Covid hit.
Wilder: "them muppets from Leeds": Nope, get back to the championship where you belong Wilder you muppet
Another nail in Allardyce's coffin. Well done blades very pleasing result
No chance Blades. Too little, too late I'm afraid.
But no worries! There's a whole division waiting below you thats far more appropriate to your abilities.

What a negative A hole..
lets be fair to WBA players....................would you be motivated by Allardyce and Sammy Lee?
Of course not................. because their style has nothing to do with football as most people know it.
The Premier League needs to introduce a "fit and proper" measurement for coaches/managers before they can be appointed.

Wow. And you're showing you're not very sharp for someone called Blade.

Second worst WBA squad to "compete" in the premier league, only the team that followed our first promotion was weaker. We should have been looking at 4 points from these last two fixtures but claimed just one. Only our GK emerges with any credit to date, and I can see him being snapped up in the summer.
Two teams more suited to Sunday league football who will never be more successful or bigger than spurs.
big sam said today that 38 points will keep west brom up,,you will be lucky to get to 20 if your really lucky,boing boing down you go,,ha ha
WBA deserve all they get ... Allardyce is corrupt, outdated and one dimensional.. all they had to do was ring up Everton or the FA ...
My bet is he will not last the season because he cares only about himself and his only claim to fame “never been relegated “
Soon as he thinks they’re going down he will jump ship..

Sheffield United are the "best" bottom team there has been and that is a compliment. They are right in evey game and no one has given them a hiding; good hard working team not letting their predicament get in the way and never letting their heads drop. Same for their manager. From a Leeds fan.
Yeah! Best bottom team ever. The best worst bottomest Sheffield named team I have ever witnessed ever.
Just because they haven't had a hiding doesn't mean they're the best bottom team ever! Look at how many goals they've scored - they've been too defensive which is understandable when their attack is so woeful. They got lucky last season and this year they've been found out.
WBA are done too now. 1 point from games against Fulham & SUFC is not enough. Realistically they needed 6.

Lol they a REALLY crap. 11 points from 22 games? This the WORST bottom 3 PL teams ever FFS they got 7 wins between them in 65 games and 3 of them were against each other ??
Everyone said this about Norwich last year, people have very short memories. Hope they stay up anyway as really like Wilder, tells it as it is
Great accolade - the best bottom team. That is sometime else to add to Sheffield's unwanted records this season.
Good to see Sheffield utd turning a corner. Wall fan
Disgraceful allowing teams like these in the premiership! Thankfully they’ll both soon be gone!
It would be good if Chris Wilder could pull off a great escape.
The relegation fight is over. Sheffield and West Brom are going down. Sheffield are 10 points behind forth having played 2 games more. They looked terrible but fortunately West Brom looked worse.
Muppets.
Muppets.
You clearly didn’t watch the second half. And you spelt ‘fourth’ wrong. Looks like you’re the muppet.
that's it we (the Baggies) are down,
betta start preparing "properly" for the Championship, TODAY,
need a new "dynamic" manager and not some sort of
"Old School has (never) been" (like Pardew, Pulis, Bilic, Fat Sam, etc)
OUT with those one season mercenary loan players,
keep the best we have and get the owners to open their chequebook,
or sell the club to someone that will.

To be fair I’m quite relaxed about us getting relegated- much prefer the Championship as a more unpredictable, exciting league. If you look at our history we have tended to move between both leagues on a regular basis anyway. Just wish that our absentee owner actually gave a tuppenny stuff ....

Could this be the GREATEST of great escapes? If Sheff Utd stayed up, I'd argue that it was an even greater achievement than Leicester City's Premier League win!
They are probably going to have to rely on Brighton not getting too many more points, if Sheff Utd can continue getting a win here and there because I can't see any more teams being involved in a relegation fight at present.
Nothing will eclipse that.. Staying up isn't in same category... If Accrington Stanley win prem.. Yes
From an Aston Villa fan to WBA fans, you're on your way back to your default little league where you belong, boing boing!!
It's funny as fat Sam is an odios mngr and bloke.. Who plays football from the Jurassic period
STEAL for the BLADES
Worst team ever? What will that make West Brom when they finish below us?
Good result tonight, nice to stick one over the bung taker.

"Bung taker"? What "bung"? If you're referring to Allardyce & England, look it up, he was vindicated later. If "Bungs" really upset you, I suggest you check the websites that can help you, a long history of certain agents having associations with certain managers, and a BIG list of foreigners coming in who needed help putting boots on the correct feet (for many teams . .).
UTB ! What does the result matter to a Boro fan ?
Two teams more suited to Sunday league football who will never be more successful or bigger than spurs.
It would be good if Chris Wilder could pull off a great escape.
Because he’s an honest hard working manager, a manager that says it as it is, a manager that the fans can relate to, a manager that has done a great job in lifting HIS team from League 1 to the Premiership without spending his way there, a manager who got that same team to hold its own in the top flight - perhaps that might just give people a bit of a soft spot and hope to see him survive the drop
A draw represents something of a disaster for WBA. Whether it's enough to rescue SU's remains to be seen. Decent game; surprisingly good given the league positions; but why did WBA lack real ambition going forwards for so much of it? That was asking for it... And they got it!
Need MASSIVE clubs like SWFC back in the premiership not tin pot sides like these. SWFC would sell out every week with there MASSIVE fanbase. Class fans/ground/Chansiri super owner. From a Manchester City fan.
I suspect you are right. If you tried to sell tickets to Wednesday fans during lockdown they would probably buy them.
Wow your in dream land you have more chance of winning the lottery
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
This billhook posts the same comment word for word on EVERY Sheff Utd HYS thread. Pretending to be a Man City fan, and signing off every post with the same lie, doesn't hide your true piggy allegiance. You are not even smart enough to change your name from WonkyOwl!! ?? Why not try ManchesterBlue to complete the subterfuge? Truth is, they wouldn't let you in the Etihad due to the smell of pork! ??

Hope Wba go down, i think what did to bilic was disgraceful.
Thx Nick, maybe you don't follow footy? The team was disorganised under Bilic, who - CHECK his record - hasn't really been a success anywhere, bar one season at West Ham (& their fans slated him when he left). You may have missed the collapse near the end of last season, needing a minor miracle to get promoted directly instead of the playoffs? This is a Championship team, struggling, SB or SA.
Absolutely buzzing, for a few months I genuinely thought Sheff U would break derby's record, thank god that's staying intact
I remember in the 90's when Sheffield United only had 4 points going into the Christmas period, everyone had written them off but they turned it around and stayed up comfortably. They do have a lot to do to avoid relegation this season but I wouldn't bet against them just yet.
Think there is a better than average chance that Big Sam will bail out fairly soon,providing of course that he can sort out the financial arrangements first.
A win feels nice tonight, but I for one won't be jumping on the Great escape band wagon, too much between the teams above the relegation zone.. So Baggies, I feel we will meet again next season back in the championship.. At least there won't be VAR and hopefully a full house of supporters.

Reckon you’re right . No Harry Houdini this season unfortunately
As a Baggies fan I think you’re right about that. I reckon you guys are playing much better football than us at the minute and I really hope you stick with Wilder up or down. It’s fairly depressing what’s happening with us at minute but we’ll still be turning up at the Hawthorns as soon as they open the doors.
They don't have an elevator.
They don't have love.
They're not living it up.
But they are definitely goooiiinnnggg dooowwwwnnn.
