Ten Sheffield United team photos from the 60s, 70s and 80s

In the halcyon days of football publications like Shoot! and Match, excited supporters up and down the land would eagerly await their favourite club’s new team photo to appear in the must-have magazines.

Fans would then pay homage to their heroes by proudly displaying their team photos on their bedroom walls or even as covers on school books – and Unitedites were no different, with posters of Tony Currie and Brian Deane taking pride of place in many Blades-supporting homes.

Here, we’ve delved into our archive to bring you 10 team photos from the beginning of 60s through to the end of the 80s featuring some of United’s best-known names.
