The 2-0 win over Ipswich Town at Bramall Lane all but sealed promotion before the news was confirmed when Leeds United failed to beat Aston Villa on Sunday.

Videos of the players celebrating all weekend have flooded Twitter with fans also spending the majority of the weekend partying until the early hours.

The celebrations continued last night at Sheffield United’s Player of the Year Awards Dinner at Bramall Lane and it was certainly a memorable night.

Dean Henderson picked up Young Player of the Year and Community Player of the Year while Billy Sharp picked up Players’ Player of the Year.

Chris Basham won the goal of the season for his effort against Leeds and David McGoldrick scoooped the Player of the Season.

However, it was John Egan who stole the show at the awards dinner as he debuted his incredible new song that he had been working on since January.
