When Oxford United visit Bramall Lane in the FA Cup on Saturday, it will be a familiar but emotional trip for two of their backroom staff.
U's manager Chris Wilder is a boyhood Sheffield United fan, who played for the club 127 times over two spells.
But his goalkeeping coach Alan Hodgkinson has an even stronger bond to the Blades, having also supported the club and spent his entire professional career there, making 675 appearances.
HOW ABOUT A VERSE OF
"AYE AYE AYE AYE - HODGKINSONS BETTER THAN YASHIN"
Sure that would bring a massive smile to his face.
Sure all you more mature Bladesmen will remember that song
