Sheffield United’s support against Queens Park Rangers on Saturday was “absolutely outstanding,” manager Chris Wilder insisted, after his Blades brought their three-match losing streak to an end at Bramall Lane. Wilder had admitted that some negativity was possible after United’s recent results.
But Blades fans seemed to be enthused by a committed performance from their side which was unfortunate not to be rewarded with three points after dominating their hosts from a statistical perspective, hitting the post through Sydie Peck and seeing QPR goalkeeper Ben Hamer named man of the match after a string of good saves.
“I've got to say, I thought they were absolutely outstanding,” said Wilder of his side’s support. “We understand what's gone off over the last three or four months, and they [the supporters] will be as frustrated as I am in terms of the situation that we find ourselves in.
“But we are in this situation, and I thought they gave everything to try and help us get a win. I think the most frustrating thing for me is that we didn't execute and deliver that result. Because they deserved it as much as the players did.”
