Ben and Andrew react to an entertaining 2-2 draw at West Brom as United score twice in a minute but eventually have to settle for a point via Tom Fellows' wind-assisted fluke. We also look ahead to a (very) tough game with Millwall, made even more difficult by the fact it's now Neil Harris' final home game at the Den.
Thanks for listening and UTB!

Ben and Andrew recap an exciting game with Sunderland as Tom Davies pops up to win it off the bench on his return to fitness. We talk about Michael Cooper's excellence, Femi Seriki making a big impact off the bench, and United's ability to grind out games even when up against it - plus, a look ahead to West Brom this weekend and a match against probably the weirdest team in the league.

Ben and Andrew review the dramatic 2-2 draw at Coventry as Bassette hounds Anel into a red card, and then the satisfying stroll against Oxford at Bramall Lane.

An extender to see out the remains of the international break - first, Ben and Andrew hand out their early season awards including POTS, biggest surprise, best / worst moment, and preseason prediction we most regret. We also look ahead to the Coventry game this weekend. Then, Ben is joined by Rainbow Blades vice-chair Anna Kent to catch up on the first half of the season for Sheffield United Women, and about the Lionesses returning to Bramall Lane in a couple of weeks.
Thanks to Andrew and Anna, and thanks to you for listening. UTB! -
Ben and Andrew review Sheffield United 1-0 Sheffield Wednesday, as Tyrese Campbell's goal is enough to settle the latest derby at Bramall Lane - and the first goal for either side since September 2017. We end up discussing pretty much every Blades player, the enduring joy of derby victory even when the game is nowt special, a few of our favourite moments (as well as Tyrese Campbell putting the ball in the Wednesday net), and sausage rolls.
Thanks for listening, and UTB!!!! -
Ben and Andrew tick off two highly-satisfying wins for United, as they take six points from trips to Blackburn and Bristol City, with Ryan Oné bagging his first Blades goal and Harrison Burrows snatching a win at the death at Ashton Gate after a convincing performance at Ewood Park.

Ben and Andrew give some brief thoughts on a somewhat odd game with soporific Swansea, as Josh Tymon's own goal gives the Blades another win and puts them -2 points off the top of the league. We discuss some savvy squad management by Wilder, another good showing by Harrison Burrows, a fifth clean sheet in a row, and also look ahead to Luton on Saturday.

Ben and Andrew savour another away win for United as the Blades bring a winning gameplan to Hull City, with particularly eye-catching performances from Hamer, Ahmedhodzic and Gilchrist.

Ben is joined by Anna Kent of Rainbow Blades to discuss United's win over Watford - a home win at last! - before turning our eye towards the current state of SUFC Women ahead of their season kickoff this weekend. We discuss last season, the impact of the club's takeover that has led to a messy summer exodus of players, the green shoots ahead of the new season, the Women's Championship as a whole, and players we're most looking forward to see this season including Izzy Goodwin, Molly Graham, Eva Butler and Ella Kinzett.
Huge thanks to Anna for joining me to talk about the Blades in Andrew's absence!

With the transfer window coming to a close, Ben and Andrew clean up some of the latest rumours and news around the Blades, including Leeds lowballing for Hamer, Trusty to Celtic, Mikey Johnston arriving, and what our dream end to the transfer window would look like. Plus, we briefly discuss Norwich before giving some thoughts on last night's Yorkshire derby with Barnsley and previewing the visit of early pacesetters Watford.

Ben and Andrew lament the Blades letting a first home league win since December slip through their fingers, as a 2-0 lead isn't enough during a bizarrely passive second half. We discuss the joy of watching Hamer and O'Hare, some poor/non-existent game management, and a curious choice of goalkeeper. One day we'll win at the Lane again, eh?
Thanks for listening, and UTB! -
The Blades are up and running in 2024/25 thanks to Oli Arblaster and Gus Hamer's goals at Preston, and Ben and Andrew discuss a return of that winning feeling, the debuts of Gilchrist, Burrows, Moore and O'Hare, more new signings in Michael Cooper and Tyrese Campbell, a win for the second string in the League Cup, the expiry of Hamer's release clause and a whole lot more. Roll on Saturday, UTB!

By way of a season preview, Ben and Andrew break down the best case and worst case scenarios for Sheffield United in 2024/25 - what needs to go right to have a great (promotion-chasing?) season, and what might go wrong that leads to a bad (don't think about it) one. We discuss the need for reinforcements, the importance of Gus Hamer, whether Wilder will rediscover his mojo, takeover implications and plenty more, and how they could impact the season ahead.
