VIDEO: Nigel Adkins says Sheffield United fans had a right to boo after defeat to Wigan
Sheffield United manager Nigel Adkins admitted there was 'nothing wrong' with fans booing following their 2-0 defeat to Wigan Athletic and thanked them for getting behind the team throughout the game.
Over 20,000 were in attendance at Bramall Lane, after a week in which negativity hovered following the inability to add to the squad on transfer deadline day, but the disappointment grew following a poor display which led to a potentially demoralising loss.
United were booed-off the pitch following the final whistle but Adkins, who had called for supporters to show solidarity with his players beforehand, said: “I want to thank the fans, because I asked them to stick behind the players throughout the game and they have done.
