You might have thought that the break in football might have prompted a change in fortune on the technological front for Sheffield United but no sooner were they back, than they were on the wrong end of another terrible call, after last night’s ghost goal at Aston Villa. Here are the other times the Blades have been victims this season...

2. David McGoldrick v Tottenham
