Yeah but can we take 55,000 to Wembley? That's what matters........

No chance we’d ever take 60,000 to Wembley, with fans flying in from the jungles of Borneo, the tundras of Siberia and the Namib desert.

 

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

Middlesbrough = Yorkshire club for me

 

[HD8 Blades]

Removed from Yorkshire for hygiene reasons

 

[CarlMcBlade]

Care homes across Sheffield have been emptied this weekend.

 

[CarlMcBlade]

In light of Leeds relegation, I hear ITV’s regional programming for Yorkshire has been suspended as a mark of respect. They are now showing War of the Monster trucks on a loop all evening.

 

[ancientblade]

whats everybody on about on this thread our porky friends from s6 and scum from up the m1 tell us its about how many fans youve got

 

[3-GBlade]

Rather appropriately for today....
the 1912 "top team" could really be Barnsley and not the grunters.
Barnsley won the FA CUP that year, so does that count for more than league position?

 

[ancientblade]

wednesdays 20k one game a season fans out today they dont support their club 99% of the season then all we hear is that theyve 44k at wembley today theyve got the most part time fans in the country

Best club in each county:

 

[Le Cynique]

We will finish higher than the rest of em

On that basis Leeds finished higher than us this season so they're currently the best team in Yorkshire, at least until the new season starts

 

[Harry's Game]

Tis true… until the fixtures come out anyway

 

[reedy63]

We are Sheffield number one South Yorkshire number one and Yorkshire number one.

Which Sheffield team has the most fans?


Research has shown Sheffield United are the Steel City's most popular club on social media. And the research found the Blades were the most popular of the Steel City's teams with 2.3 million followers compared to the Owls' comparatively small 854,000
