Sheffield United Start Squatting

Sheffield United have confirmed yesterday's rumours that they will not give up their share in the League at next week's meeting of Premiership clubs. As part of entering arbitration the Blades had to promise that they would abide by the decisions of the panel. This latest action by the club hardly bodes well that they will accept the panel's verdict. After all they are finding it impossible to accept the commission's verdict into West Ham's breach of Premiership rules.

Sheffield United are now seriously affecting the reputation of the League and the League needs to now start asserting itself. It is time for the League to tell the Blades that if they don't hand over their share next week they will never be allowed to rejoin the Premier League.
