There’s not been much to cheer about in the Steel City so far this season.<\/p>\n
Both Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday are pointless after their opening two Championship matches having changed their respective managers in the summer.<\/p>\n
The Blades, who lost last season’s Championship play-off final to Sunderland, went down 1-0 at Swansea City, while beleaguered Wednesday lost 3-0 at home to Stoke City.<\/p>\n
McLean: <\/b>“Really disappointing from Sheffield United, I think they’re still suffering a hangover from last season.<\/p>\n
“Obviously with the change of manager as well, Ruben Selles coming in, at the minute things don’t seem to be gelling.<\/p>\n
“Sheffield seems a tough place to be at the moment. When you look at Sheffield Wednesday, as well – the transfer embargo, the protests, and the results on the pitch, there’s so many things going wrong.<\/p>\n
“It’s sad to see because it’s such a big club, when they are winning games, Hillsborough is one of the best places in the country to play.<\/p>\n
“The fans don’t have their football club at the moment and until it is sold there are going to be more dark days like today.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"There’s not been much to cheer about in the Steel City so far this season.
