English 1 - Birmingham City 2 : 1 Sheffield United

Not what the doctor ordered ......

It's confirmed ..... Herby and his 'Blades' will compete for promotion next season as the 'DREAM' has crash and burned with 5 games left this term.

In what was a MUST win fixture away to 3rd place Birmingham, who's squad boasted talents such as Fabregas, Mascherano, Saha and McCarthy. The later 2 players finding then net and their names on the scoreboard to secure all the points for the home side. Despite managing to equalise through Mathieu Delpierre, Sheffield United was eventually forced to push for the win which ultimately led to the Birmingham outfit scoring on the counter attack.
In the end many critics would've said that a draw was probably the deserved result with possession being vitually split evenly and Herby's men having more shots in general play and on target.

Herby had few words to say after the match, "We gave it our all, and have come up a tad short. We'll now concentrate on next season and I'm sure we'll be up there again challenging next term".
