BladesPod - The Sheffield United Podcast

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. We discuss the final stages of Vini Souza's redemption story and also look ahead to Sunday's derby.

Thanks for listening and UTB!

Ben and Andrew discuss United's 2-0 win over Stoke City as the Blades pay tribute to George Baldock before, during and after the game. We also touch on the previous week's trips to Leeds and Middlesbrough, and look ahead to the upcoming fixtures.

Thank you for listening (and your patience), and UTB!

Ben and Andrew talk about the tragic passing of George Baldock and the outpouring of emotion that his death has brought out in the football world. RIP George.

Ben and Andrew review an enjoyably comfortable 2-0 win over Luton with Jesurun Rak-Sakyi getting his first Blades goals as the defence strings together a sixth straight clean sheet.

Thanks for listening, and UTB!

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.

Thanks for listening and UTB!

Ben and Andrew review the 0-0 draw at Fratton Park as United stay unbeaten on a day where neither team could find a way past the respective opposition goalkeepers. We also look ahead to a midweek game with Swansea and what to expect from the visitors.

Thanks as always for listening, and UTB!

Ben and Andrew review United's win over Derby County, with the latest moment of magic from Gus Hamer raising some cheer after an emotional few days for the fanbase. We also look ahead to this weekend's trip to Portsmouth.

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.
