Blackman banned as Sheffield United host Cardiff

Sunday 1st April 2018


Sheffield United will be without goalkeeper Jamal Blackman for the Sky Bet Championship clash with Cardiff.


Blackman begins a three-match suspension following his sending-off for a tussle with Ryan Woods against Brentford on Good Friday.

Welsh duo Lee Evans and David Brooks will be pushing for starts after returning to the bench against the Bees following international duty.

Midfielder Paul Coutts remains sidelined as he recovers from a knee problem.


Aron Gunnarsson returned to the Cardiff team against Burton and suffered no ill-effects from his 23-minute run-out.
Gunnarsson has not played since November because of ankle surgery but after returning for Iceland in the international break was back in a Bluebirds shirt against Albion and will be looking to win back a starting place.

Jazz Richards has had a setback with his ankle injury in training which will rule him out for another two to three weeks.

Joe Ralls remains out with a hamstring problem.





I can’t get to Bramall Lane, is the match on TV?

Yes, the match is live on Sky Sports.

Apparently the last time Cardiff City won nine in a row was 1947. One year before Neil Warnock was born. On Monday he could make a bit of history, matching that feat against his hometown club.

May have something to do with appeals but as far as aware bans start immediately well never known them to start 4 days after and anyway 2 yellows there's no appeal so they will miss next game. :thumbup:
