Never had a real problem with Sheff U...

Got beaten up by Blades fans in the eighties, so yes I have a problem with them.
Yep, I got caught up in a scuffle or two outside Bramall Lane in 81 when we lost 3-1 (Bob Hatton scored against us). I'd cadged a lift in a van with a group of lads. As we reached the ground, the lads started chanting at the Blades fans. The driver told them to shut it because they'd know where we were from. One of the lads helpfully reminded him that "Blackpool Van Hire" was printed across the side of the van.

No real problems since then personally, until Heckingbottom's comments whicn might help make the return fixture a bit feisty?

What did he say?
 
I remember the 81 away game as being a bit rough getting to the ground but I mostly remember the year later in the Home game getting wrongly arrested on Lytham Rd and spending all weekend in a cell 😳. Never liked them since but I can honestly say I don't like any Yorkshire teams 😉
