The propensity of Sheffield United fans to ridicule their West Ham counterparts over the Carlos Tevez affair shows no sign of abating.
Joke bank notes have started circulating in the city, with the the 'Bank of West Ham' promising to pay the bearer a cool £30million!

Naturally Tevez's face adorns the front, while 'Chief Cashier' Trevor Booking is on the back. All good fun - unless you're a humourless Hammer.

*Do you have a joke about Sheffield United or Sheffield Wednesday? Or even a gag about West Ham United? Or soccer in general? If it is clean - and funny - we'll print it in a Owls v Blades derby football special we are publishing soon.
Email your joke to starsport@sheffieldnewspapers.co.uk with your name or nickname and we'll soon see which side of the city has the funniest fans. But remember...please keep it clean!

Very Funny, but wouldn't they rather be in the premier league?

Also Let's hope the Queen is a Hammer and sues them for defacing her bank notes!!!

What's new?

London has been financing the citizens of Sheffield for decades.

£30m is a snip. But just ask yourselves how much will SUFC see of it and how much will go into McSmug's back pocket?

It's the principle not the money eh? Steve Kabba anyone?

So let's see McCry baby go to an arbitration now so that fairness in football is back. Oh he won't he's got his grubby mits on the money and doesn't give a t#ss about the integrity of sport anymore.
Still 30mill I'd take that for 5th in the Premiership and you lot are where? in which league?

Hey Donny boy.....
Just thought id mention that ive just got in from:-
A TINNY LITTLE GROUND
IN A TINNY LITTLE TOWN
WITH A TINNY LITTLE CROWD
Obviously your biggest gate of the season as "Youve only come to see United"
See you at the Lane.Premiership facilities.Back there sooner than you'll ever be.
"And the green envious glances from lesser clubs were a sight to behold as The Blades cashed their new 30 million windfall"
Courtesy of the cheating club !!

Sheffields Thickest Fan, you seem to have a fixation on size, size of crowd, size of ground, size of town, is that because you are lacking in the size dept, certainly the brain is smaller than most, where else are you lacking in size ?

Whats the point in you having Premiership facilities and a Championship team.

You certainly seem to be splashing the cash about, can't compleat the Howard deal because of a few quid on a sell on clause. I also think you may be confusing ''green envious glances'' for sniggers behind your backs about you all keep oinking on about how badly you've been treated.

Chances of receiving £30 million or anything like it, ZILCH
