Ahhhh, the derby......
"The air is thick with tension as fans from the red and the pig side of the city pour into the stadium, a silence filling every corner despite the shouts and taunts.
This isn't just a game of football - Its a battle of pride, identity and years of intense rivalry, hatred even.
Boxing Day and Bouncing Day reviewed beforehand and vows to avenge what's gone before.
The team near the top should easily beat the team near the bottom, but is it as easy as that?
Faces are taut, fists clenched, losing to 'them' is unthinkable, pretty much unbearable.
The sound of Da Hool as the players step on to the lush green surface at BDTBL makes the time arrive for battle near as the tension builds up around the ground...
The players feel it too, nerves tightening with every glance towards the cross town rivals..
Every tackle, shot and save carries the weight across the city behind it.
For 90 odd minutes time suspends as dread sits heavy on the sidelines, lingering and waiting, reminding that victory is survival, as defeat means haunting shame that won't fade soon..
Hopefully, The team in Red and White shows unrestrained joy at the final whistle, with fans leaping, limbs going, players embracing and the chants of the mighty Blades fans echo in triumphant waves, knowing that for the next few days that the bragging rights are theirs. Work will be made a more joyful place to go to on the Monday.
Victory isn't just a win, its a memory seared forever in a shared celebration, Its a declaration, This city is ours now and forever.
This is Sheffield.. Sheffield is Red and White....
We are Blades, SUPER BLADES ..... "
Or summats like that anyhow..

2-1 to us
