Sheffield United Football Club are a professional English football club based in the City of Sheffield, South Yorkshire.

They will play next season (2006-07) in the FA Premier League, after achieving promotion from the football league championship. The current manager is Neil Warnock, and the team play at Bramall Lane, in Highfield wearing a strip of red and white striped shirts.

Their nickname is The Blades, which can be seen on the team emblem that is said to have been designed by a former manager, Jimmy Sirrel. The emblem was first used for the 1977-78 season, replacing the city coat of arms that had been used since 1966. Like all clubs, Sheffield United have a great range of songs and chants sung by their fans, including the most notable: their unofficial anthem, The Greasy Chip Butty Song.
