The 2011/12 season was notable not only for the fierce rivalry between Manchester clubs in the Premier League but also for a similar division in League 1. While Charlton Athletic was breaking records, Sheffield United appeared poised to secure the second spot until the well-documented incident involving Ched Evans emerged. United's form faltered as they lost to MK Dons and drew at home to an impressive Stevenage, had just been promoted and made the playoffs that season. Meanwhile, Sheffield Wednesday maintained their focus and were rewarded for it. Milan Mandaric's risky and unpopular decision to fire Gary Megson just days after a significant win in the Steel City derby, which narrowed United's lead to two points, and replace him with Dave Jones, ultimately paid off.
LETTER TO WYCOMBE WANDERERS CHAIRMAN RE: Sheffield Wednesday v Wycombe Wanderers Dear Sir/Madam, I am a Blade, a Sheffield United fan. This season has been one of the most enjoyable I have so far in the 27 years of supporting The Blades home and away. Last weekend also spoilt it quite a bit for me as we didn’t quite get the result we wanted and so The Owls nicked 2nd spot with one game remaining meaning we need to beat Exeter City on Saturday and hope your football club pull off an amazing feat and spoil their ALREADY PLANNED promotion party. I understand, despite your relegation, you are a good team on your day as you showed us when we came down to your ground earlier on in the season and beat us fair and square. I am just praying you can overcome the understandable sadness and being relegated and really rally yourselves to beat the overly arrogant Owls on their own patch. Their fans already believe they’re up, they’ve already beaten you apparently and that your ‘Tin-Pot’ club has not even a chance on Saturday. WELL LET ME TELL YOU THIS WYCOMBE WANDERERS F.C - YOU DO HAVE A CHANCE, PLENTY OF CLUBS INCLUDING EXETER HAVE BEATEN THEM THIS SEASON AND THERE IS NO REASON YOU CANNOT DO THE SAME. PLEASE, play with your heads held high, chests out bursting with pride as you are a professional club and good one at that. You will all be in Blades’ hearts forever should you win at Hillsborough and how nice would it be to silence 35,000 arrogant fans in the stands who just see you as a given. I will be praying you win and pull this off. Yours in hope.
I was and Charlton really were nothing special, besides the free-kick and Madines offside goal, there was nothing in it for Charlton, 80 minutes of football, 10 minutes of Charltons keeper holding it in his hands.
You Wednesday fans make me laugh you go mad about coming second but diss us winning the same league. What a set if w- - - -: s blades got 100 points won the league and averaged more fans. Utb
I will never, ever, ever get tired of watching this episode of the football league show. EVER. UTO
I'm a Leeds fan, my dad is Wednesday supporter and I was there with him at that match. You owls have a great ground and played a great match :)
What are your fans wearing😅😅😂
You are not even the best fans in Yorkshire and you're not even the best fans in SHEFFIELD. UTB
@@anthonyhousley6934 who?
Best atmosphere I've ever experienced at Hillsborough. This game meant so much beating them to promotion🦉🦉
Was in that slither of Wycombe fans. Can’t wait to go back next season, what a match! Unbelievable!
That depends what league Wednesday are in😂
Covid 19 looks as if it's scuppering your opportunity. The Wycombe fans were very sporting that afternoon. Best wishes. Stu. 🦉
What a day I can still remember and it's now 2019
Never forget this day, absolute fantastic👍👍
BEATIE’S BEEN SENT IFF BEEN SENT OFF, BEATIE’S BENN SENT OFFF NA NA MA NANANA NA!
