@RobPNicholson Not our best for the first 25 minutes. Shame it took Bournemouth to score before we go going. #sufc #twitterblades

@bramallblade Sharp's hold-up play is absolutely immense. As near to perfection as you will ever see. #twitterblades

@ViewFromJohnSt Billy likes playing against Bournemouth. Poor start but warming to the task. Now that we’re level expect to see Blades throw kitchen sink at it second half. Hope Lundstram and Mousset come on sooner rather than later. #sufc #twitterblades

@SufcLee Sharp takes the credit. but Berge was integral. Wouldnt been possible if hadn’t managed to hook it back in #twitterblades
