Sadly, the promotion race for the Blades is over in terms of automatic places, but we now enter the scrum of the play-offs.

Sheffield United 2 - 0 Cardiff City


The Blades got back to winning ways as they saw off Cardiff at Bramall Lane, though it was a game that lacked real quality. Gus Hamer scored in the first half and Ben Brereton Diaz in the second half – on his birthday!

Oxford United 1 - 0 Sheffield United


Leeds Utd dropped points with a draw, but Burnley won so now they’re top of the league! Funny old game . . .

Sheffield United 3 - 1 Coventry


Back to the top of the Championship table after a really emphatic victory over Coventry "under the lights" at Bramall Lane on Friday night where the Blades put in an assured and dominant performance, laying down a marker ahead of all the other games of the weekend.

Sheffield Wednesday 0 - 1 Sheffield United


So, glory for the Red Half of Sheffield, as the Blades earned a double derby win, even though by a single goal.

Sheffield United 1 - 1 Bristol City


This was rather an odd evening. Bitterly cold and with the match being shown on SKY, the attendance wasn't what it has been lately.

Sheffield United 1 - 0 Preston North End


Well, we won the game – that's the important thing! The performance, though, was a bit lack-lustre and it was a rather classic 1-0 fair win.

I know it's only the second of March and I don't want to count chickens, but isn't it glorious to see the sunshine?!

It's 15 degrees C here today! The snowdrops and crocuses are out in my garden and already the birds are singing away and zooming about looking for nesting material.

Luton Town 0 - 1 Sheffield United


Another three points for the Blades, but this performance was more akin to the battling and scrappy wins of Derby and Portsmouth, than the fluid and impressive performance that dismantled Middlesbrough mid-week!

Sheffield United 3 - 1 Middlesbrough


As Chris Wilder said, "that was more like us"! And, thankfully, he returned to the "proper" team.

Sheffield United 2 - 1 Portsmouth


It was back to winning ways as the Blades somehow took three points from a game that the visitors dominated for much of the contest. Portsmouth have not won at Bramall Lane since November 1955, 25 contests in all! However, I thought we were a bit "second best " in this game and even Chris Wilder said that we "got away with one".

Just to say a big thank you to my wonderful DW friends who sent cards, ecards, messages and a lovely fic (check out Silvan_Lady's story "Do it for Yorkshire" - I think you can guess who features in it!) to celebrate my birthday.

Even Sheffield United obliged with a win yesterday, so it's been a great weekend - thank you all again so very much!
