Sheffield United are not commenting on a report this evening

Sheffield United are not commenting on a report this evening that claims the club is battling to stave off the threat of administration.

The Daily Mail has tonight published a report that states the Blades are facing a 12-point deduction if they enter it before next Thursday and that they have introduced a series of cost-cutting measures to avoid the sanction.



It is being claimed that undersoil heating has been turned off at their Shirecliffe training ground 'in a desperate attempt to ensure they can pay their players this month' and that suppliers have not been paid.

Sheffield United do have big financial problems and they are not going way.



The club's financial problems have been well-documented this season. Currently under a transfer embargo for failing to keep up with transfer payments, believed to be owed to Liverpool for the purchase of Rhian Brewster and Malmo for Anel Ahmedhodzic, Sheffield United are also in limbo as Dozy Mmobuosi looks to complete his takeover of the club.

That is currently with the EFL, who are yet to give it the green light.

Although this one isn’t confirmed I’m amazed that this is a real threat to so many clubs. Living beyond their means and chasing the PL dream ain’t all that it’s cracked up to be maybe. Personally I’d rather the championship any day.

Aye,we may even be ahead of the curve in this.

I am with you preferring the Championship But would i feel the same if there was not the potential of the premiership I did enjoy the premiership but from day one i expected us to be relegated each time we were there I could not go through season after season like that thou

I watch football in the championship and below and find the football a pretty poor standard so it's a no from me .
