The Blades were given a few opportunities to get back into the top flight with four matches remaining. Just one win was needed from their final fixtures and they took the chance at the first attempt in front of their home supporters to spark jubilant scenes at the Lane when the final whistle was blown.
Goals from Sander Berge and Anel Ahmedhozic did the job in an excellent second half performance and after that, the party kicked off with the players celebrating with supporters at a noisy Bramall Lane.
