History
Sheffield United was formed on March 22, 1889 at Adelphi Hotel, Sheffield (now Crucible Theater) by President Cricket Club Sir Charles Clegg. Wednesday has moved from Bramall Lane to their own land in Olive Grove after a gate acceptance dispute and Bramall Lane tenants need to create a new team to generate revenue. Sir Charles Clegg coincidentally also president of The Wednesday.
Undoubtedly, United's heyday was a 30-year period from 1895 to 1925, when they became British champions in 1897-98 and runners in 1896-97 and 1899-00, and FA Cup winners in 1899, 1902, 1915 and 1925, finishing runners up in 1901, and also eleven years after their final trophy win in 1936. United have not won a trophy since 1925, banning those associated with promotions from lowly leagues, their best performances in cup competitions being some of the Cup semi-final appearances FA and Football League Cup.
Their darkest days occurred between 1975 and 1981. After occupying the sixth position in the First Division at the end of the 1974-75 season, they were relegated to Division II the following season and three years after the setback they fell into the Third Division. They reached the lowest point in 1981 when they were relegated to the Fourth Division but became champions in their first season in the league basement division and two years later they won promotion to the Second Division.
They fell back to the Third Division in 1988, but new manager Dave Bassett masterminded the rapid rise that launched the Blades into one of the most successful eras in their history. Successive promotions after the 1988 bankrupt saw them return to the First Division in 1990 after a 14-year exile. They stayed at this level for four seasons (becoming the new founding member of the FA Premier League in 1992 after peaking with the ninth finish in the last season of the old First Division) and reaching the FA Cup semifinals in 1992- 93 seasons before being relegated in 1994.
They will remain out of the top for the next 12 years, even though they qualified for the play-offs under Bassett's substitute Howard Kendall in 1997 and interim manager Steve Thompson in 1998. They fought on the wrong end of Division One when Neil Warnock was appointed manager in December 1999, and the financial crisis prevented the club from being able to improve their squad, but in 2002-03 they enjoyed the most successful season for a decade, reaching the semi-finals of both domestic cups and also reaching the play-off Final Division One, where they were beaten 3-0 by Wolverhampton Wanderers. Three years later, however, Warnock relayed the Premier League as Blades finished runners-up in the rebranded Championship. They only lasted a season behind the elite, before being relegated from the Premier League amid the controversy surrounding Carlos Tevez, a controversial player contracted by West Ham United and whose performances played a major role in their incredible escape from relegation. Neil Warnock resigns as manager after the Blades falls.
The club struggled to come to life again in the Championships, with payroll bills that did not match the quality of the players brought in, and the succession of managers in no time. The Blades did reach the Championship playoff final in 2009 under Kevin Blackwell, but a period of decline then ensued. The 2010-11 season proved disastrous, with the club hiring three different managers within a season, which eventually ended in relegation. to League One under Micky Adams, meaning they will play in the third tier of English football for the first time since 1989, just five years after getting promoted to the Premiership. In the 2011-12 season, the club finished third in League One, narrowly missing out on an automatic promotion to rival Sheffield Wednesday, and entered the playoffs. With victory over Stevenage in the semi-finals, United failed to return to the Championship after suffering a penalty shootout to Huddersfield Town. The Blades again made it into League One playoffs in 2012-13 after finishing in fifth place, but were knocked out by winners of the final promotion of Yeovil Town on goal in the 85th minute in the second leg of the semi-finals.
On 3 September 2013 it is certain that Saudi Prince Abdullah bin Musa'ed bin Abdulaziz Al Saud of the House of Saud Kingdom has purchased a 50% stake in United holding company 'Blades Leisure Ltd' at a cost of Ã, à £ 1 with the promise of providing "substantial new capital "with the aim of returning the Blades to the Premier League as" as soon as possible ". In 2014, Blades began to be described by various media as a "giant killer", after reaching the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley, losing 5-3 to Hull City. In 2014-15 the teams reach the quarterfinals of the FA Cup and the semi-finals of the Football League Cup, and despite being eliminated, they remain in competition for promotion to the Championship.
United secured promotion back to the second tier of English football in the 2016-17 season under the management of lifelong fans and former Blades player Chris Wilder.
The origin of the name and nickname
The club was formed by members of the Sheffield United Cricket Club, formed in 1854 and the first British sports club to use 'United' in its name. Sheffield United's primary nickname is "The Blades", a reference to Sheffield's status as a major producer of cutting tools in the UK. United's real nickname is actually "The Cutlers" from 1889-1912. City rivals Wednesday held the nickname "The Blades" in their early years, but in 1907 Wednesday officially became "The Owls", referring to their new land at Owlerton, and United would later claim the nickname "The Blades" for themselves.
In fans of Sheffield clubs are also referred to as 'Unitedites'.
When Sheffield United bought Chinese club Chengdu Wuniu in 2006, they redesigned the Sheffield United badge of club badge and renamed the Chengdu Blades team.

Kits, colors and symbols
Sheffield United have played in red and white stripes for most of their history, but started playing with white shirts and blue shorts. They briefly played in the narrow red line for the 1890-91 season, before returning to white the following year. The lines returned in the 1892-93 season, with black shorts replacing the blue in 1904. The shirts remained largely unchanged until the first collar was removed in 1955, replaced by V-neck until the 1966-67 season (when white socks also used), and from here on varied neck styles.
Traditional red and white lines remained until the 1974-75 season, when black elements were added, up to the 1979-81 and 82 season seasons. It's white with red breasts, and with thin lines on both sides, and was created to accommodate the club's main sponsor logo, Cantor's, a local furniture store. This should be replaced with striped kit, with sponsors Bentley's (1981-82) and Renault (1982-83) written vertically below the white line on the left side. The lines continued throughout the 1995-96 season, albeit with various aids to accommodate the sponsors, including the yellow box for Laver from 1988-92 (the 1990-92 shirt also featured narrow black stripes on every white line) and dark circles, also for Laver in the 1994-95 season. Then came the diamond kit, which was received so badly that the club returned to the line of the next season. Since then, the red and white stripes and black socks of all sorts have been the order of the day, with black shorts for all except the 2002-05 season, when white and then red are tried. The club also every few seasons chooses to place the thin black stripes between the red and white stripes. The home colors of Sheffield United are the inspiration for the Irish club kit, Derry City. In 1934, Derry City adopted the lines, while Billy Gillespie was the club's manager, in recognition of Gillespie's achievement at Sheffield United.
The first peak appeared on the shirt in the 1891-92 season, when the red emblem appeared in a white shirt, but this disappeared the following season. United used the city of Sheffield's emblem from 1965-77, when a new symbol was used, introduced by former manager Jimmy Sirrel, but was designed apparently over 20 years earlier by former player Jimmy Hagan. It consists of two white-crossed swords, or swords, club nicknames, with Yorkshire Rose on top, with a black background. It is surrounded by a red circle with "Sheffield United F.C." written around the top and "1889", the year the club was founded, underneath. It has been changed very slightly several times, with a simple black embroidered emblem that appears on t-shirts from 1987-90, and the all-white emblem on a red-eyed red shield for the 1992-99 season, but returns to its original form. in 2000.
Sponsors and manufacturer of clothes
GroundSheffield United plays at Bramall Lane, near the center of Sheffield. Bramall Lane is the world's oldest league league, having hosted the first game in 1862, a match between Hallam and Sheffield Club. Bramall Lane also hosted the world's first soccer match on October 14, 1878 with two teams selected from the Sheffield Football Association. The power for the lamp is provided by two generators. The crowd is 20,000 and the score is 2-0. Originally a cricket pitch and the first important game played here was between Yorkshire and Sussex in 1855. A cricket club was formed in 1854 called Sheffield United Cricket Club and Bramall Lane was leased to the club by Duke of Norfolk. The Land opened with a cricket match on April 30, 1855. The Yorkshire County Cricket Club was also formed here, and played most of their match at Sheffield at Bramall Lane until the last game on 7 August 1973 against their old rivals Lancashire.
The ground has been expanding in recent years, and in 2006, after completing 3,000 corner standing seats, is an all-seat stadium holding 32,609.
In March 2009 the club was officially given permission to expand the stadium once again, more than two phases. The first phase will see Kop extend to increase the soil capacity to about 37,000. It will also see the removal of the main supporting pillars and the giant screen mounted as part of the roof of the stand. The second phase will see the Valad Stand (formerly Arnold Laver Stand) also extended, bringing the total capacity to 40,000 all seater. The expansion will also have a secondary focus available for selection for FIFA World Cup matches in 2018 or 2022, if the British bid to be successful. However, on December 16, 2009, the Football Association announced that if England's 2018/2022 World Cup bid will be successful then every game played in Sheffield will be staged at Sheffield Wednesday's Hillsborough Stadium. Given that United's former chief executive, Trevor Birch, made him know that all the planned redevelopment of the land has been postponed until the club can regain and retain the Premiership status.
The revised app for redevelopment Kop was submitted in 2015, which will see 3,215 seats added to current capacity. Further plans are revealed in 2017 for the development of a corner between the Kop and the South Stand, which will see the construction of flats housing and new club stores.
Supporters
Sheffield United gained support from a wide cross section of the city and its surroundings, with branches of official support clubs running from Swinton, Kiveton Park, Retford and Eckington. Furthermore, support groups also exist in Essex, the Republic of Ireland, the Netherlands and Australia, among others.
A post 2013 study on social networking site Twitter found that Blades fans have the most positive interaction with their club's official accounts outside of English football. Sheffield United was also found to have the most 'obsessed' fans in the 2006-07 Premier League, with supporters reportedly thinking the team averaged 110 times a day.
Rivalry
Sheffield United has a lot of competition. The most prominent rivalry is with their city neighbor Sheffield Wednesday, with whom they challenge the derby Steel City (so called because of the famous Sheffield city steel industry). Wednesday's fans usually refer to United and their fans as 'pigs'. This refers to Pig Iron.
Other rivals Sheffield United are mainly other teams from South Yorkshire, such as Barnsley, Rotherham United and Doncaster Rovers, as well as Leeds United from West Yorkshire. West Ham United also became a fierce rival for 'Tevez saga' and the following lawsuit suit.
Sheffield United also has, along with many other sports teams in Yorkshire, a strong competition with Nottingham Forest. This can be attributed to attacks by miners of the 1980s, where workers at Nottinghamshire holes do not join strikes (known locally as scabbing) while miners from Yorkshire do so, creating competition.

Managerial history
Initial days
In its formation in 1889 United did not use what today would be termed a manager, the team was coached by coaches and the football committee selected the team and decided on tactics (this is a continuation of the Sheffield United Cricket Club structure from which the football team has been formed.) They indeed appoint Joseph Wostinholm to the position of the club secretary and he is responsible for running everyday clubs, day-match organizations and dealing with players and contracts. Wostinholm oversaw a period of rapid growth for the team, culminating in 1899 when United won their only First Division championship, after which he retired. Wostinholm was replaced by John Nicholson as secretary and he will remain in the post for more than 30 years until his death in 1932. Nicholson led the most successful period in club history when United became a major force in English football, won the FA Cup four times and regularly challenged at the top of the league but a second Division One title for the club avoided him.
New era
After the death of John Nicholson (who died while traveling to an away game in Birmingham), United's board turned to Chesterfield manager Teddy Davison to become the club's first real manager. But the team suffered a setback and was soon relegated for the first time in their history. Davison is gradually rebuilding the team with ingenious players and young players and regaining top flight status but the post-war financial problems of the club will hamper team building for years to come. Davison retired in 1952 and asked the club to appoint United manager Rotherham Reg Freeman as his replacement. Freeman stabilized the team but fell ill and died in 1955 after United switched to an inexperienced Joe Mercer but he struggled to tackle the team in decline and set off for Aston Villa in 1958. United then pointed to Chester Harris manager who inherited talented but under a side appearance he transformed into a promotional team, returned to Division One in 1961. Harris built the team based on local players and stabilized them in the top division but financial problems promptly pushed the key players' sales and United were eventually relegated once again. Harris chose to 'move up' to become a 'general manager' and hand over the role of team manager to Arthur Rowley but he was fired after a season following disappointing results. Harris returned as manager and guided the team to promote once again but after a good start at the top of the line, Harris's confidence faded and he resigned in 1973 to 'upstairs' for the second time.
Quick drop
The experienced Blackburn Rovers manager, Ken Furphy, is a United man who turned to replace John Harris. He originally did well but his team is old and there is little money to replace players. Having finished well in his first season, a series of poor results the following year caused Furphy to be sacked in October 1975. Jimmy Sirrel was recruited from Notts County but he proved unpopular with his players and fans and could not stop the decline, overseeing relegation and then fired in September 1977 with United at the bottom of Division Two. The ambitious and colorful Harry Haslam is handed over power and although many of his ideas are ahead of their time, he builds an aging side based on the stars' players at the end of their careers. Now in the Third Division the show got worse and Haslam resigned due to illness in January 1981. World Cup winner and then United player Martin Peters was promoted to manager position but United relegated to Division Four at the end of the season and Peters resigned.
Move up
With an ambitious new board in place United recruited Ian Porterfield as manager in June 1981. He had an immediate impact, won the Division Four championship in his first season and brought the club back to second tier two years later with very little budget. Although many fans are not happy with the style of football and the choice of a strange team and Porterfield was dismissed in 1986 after a supportive protest. Coach Billy McEwan was promoted to manager position but failed to improve the standard of the game and with his presence falling and the team in danger of relegation once again he was sacked in January 1988. United are now turning to the colorful character Dave Bassett who has last had a short spell that failed as Watford manager. That is to prove a clever appointment because although he can not prevent relegation in his first season, he builds a solid and hard working team on a small budget and wins back to promotion, returns the club up and reaches the regular mid-table. done. With the formation of Premier League United's long-standing financial problems and the willingness to sell the star player without replacing it means the party eventually succumbed to relegation and when the immediate return did not occur, Basset was dismissed in December 1995.
Arrival and departure
The following years are a turbulent time for United as they pursue Premiership football ambitions. The experienced Howard Kendall was recruited as a manager and did a complete rebuild of that side but went in June 1997 to take over at Everton. Player-coach Nigel Spackman was promoted to replace Kendall but after his initial appointment he quit after just eight months of citing the distractions of the boardroom. It became a recurring theme and replacement Steve Bruce would go after just one season for the same reason. Adrian Heath then proved to be a bad prosecution and only lasted six months before being sacked with United who seemed more likely to be relegated than promoted. The Blades then switched to lower league bottom manager Neil Warnock who managed to prevent relegation and start rebuilding teams with very little budget. Warnock proved a divisive figure with fans, but after a number of finishes in the middle of the standings he reached promotion back to the Premiership in 2006. The side were relegated the following season, prompting the board not to renew the Warnock contract.
Just like Adrian Heath, Bryan Robson's appointment in 2007 proved unpopular and unsuccessful and he was fired after less than a year after poor results and strong fan pressure. Former assistant manager Kevin Blackwell was appointed as Robson's successor but despite reaching the final play-offs in his first full season the team clearly declined and he was fired after just two matches of the 2010-11 season. Worse is coming but as player-coach Gary Speed ââwas promoted to manager but left after only a few months to take over the Welsh national team. Micky Adams went on to become the third full-time manager of the season, and oversaw a series of poor results that kept United down and Adams fired after just six months on duty.
With United on the third level once again, Danny Wilson was appointed manager in June 2011, despite protests from United fans over his previous relationship with city rivals Sheffield Wednesday. Wilson guided the club to a League One play-off final in his first full season as coach, only to lose to Huddersfield Town after a famous penalty shootout where Huddersfield missed their first three penalties. Despite the club's challenge for promotion the following season, the poor results resulted in Wilson's departure in April 2013, replaced by Chris Morgan until the end of the season.
After a long search for a new boss, former Scotland defender David Weir was named as Wilson's long-term replacement. Tenor Weir was short-lived however, as he was fired in October of the same year, having won just one of 13 games in charge. After Chris Morgan oversaw the team for a short time, Nigel Clough was appointed as Weir's permanent successor in October 2013. Clough guided Blades to finish seventh on the table barely losing play-off after being at the bottom of the standings in early February and also bring United into the semi- The FA Cup against Hull City were beaten 5-3 after two leads in the first half. The following season saw Clough guide Blades to fifth place in the league, thus qualifying for the play-offs and also taking them to the first League Cup semi-final in 12 years, with Blades finally losing to Tottenham Hotspur 3-2 on aggregate. United failed to get promotion through the play-off after losing to Swindon Town 2-1 in the first leg and drawing 5-5 in the second leg (aggregate 7-6). After their failure to get promotion, Clough was fired on May 25, 2015 and on 2 June 2015, former Scunthorpe United, Southampton and Reading boss Nigel Adkins was appointed manager of the new Blades. However, his appointment lasted only one season because Blades (who finished second after the first five games) finished at 11th, finishing third in the third round since 1983.
Adkins was fired on May 12, 2016 and was quickly replaced by former Northampton Town manager and former Blades player Chris Wilder, who oversaw United's promotion of League One after six years in the division.
