Blades make early trip to Wembley

Thu 14 May, 03:58 PM


Kevin Blackwell is preparing his squad in typically meticulous fashion for their Championship play-off final clash with Burnley later this month.

The Blades manager has already taken his players on a guided tour of Wembley stadium where they will look to bounce back to the Premier League on May 25.

Blackwell said: "It's a new venue to most of the lads. They've never been and it takes some getting used to.

"It's about preparing the players. We don't want anything to surprise them when we come back here for the final.

"We're trying to arm them with every bit of knowledge we can and want to cover every possible angle to acclimatise in order for them to be ready."

  3. Bit of a nothing story - end of season + no news =­ nothing of substance to write. As a Blades supporter I­ know it will be what happens on the pitch that matters.­ I fear for us Burnley are very good. Of course I want­ the Blades to win, but if we lose, of all the other­ teams in the championship I would be pleased for­ Burnley and wish them success in the Premiership.
