President Joe Biden and Democrats won big in the House Saturday, when it voted resoundingly in support of Ukraine aid. This could mark a turning point for Republicans, leaving them with a choice: to admit defeat and start governing, or to keep fighting with each other. For months, both former Speaker Kevin McCarthy and current Speaker Mike Johnson have catered to Donald Trump and the MAGA wing of the House GOP on Ukraine aid, insisting that it could not pass without a harsh immigration and...
Chris Wilder has admitted he and his Sheffield United coaching staff are facing “tough decisions” ahead of Wednesday night’s trip to Manchester United, with the position of goalkeeper Ivo Grbic one of those under scrutiny. The Croatian international had another unconvincing afternoon on Saturday against Burnley, leading to further question marks about his place. The goalkeeper has not enjoyed a good start to life at Bramall Lane since joining from Atletico Madrid in January, with Wilder publicly...
Eddie Howe has confirmed Newcastle United will be without Kieran Trippier and Migiuel Almiron when they take on Sheffield United this week. The Blades travel to the North East on Saturday afternoon needing a win to avoid the possibility of being relegated from the Premier League this weekend. Chris Wilder's side will be given encouragement by the fact that Newcastle will be some way short of being at full strength for the clash, with the game expected to come too soon for Nick Pope and...
Leeds United could be in the Championship’s automatic promotion places by the end of the day but must overcome an in-form Middlesbrough to do so. Daniel Farke’s side currently sit third and need to gain two points on Ipswich Town if they want to avoid the play-offs. Form has been patchy at best for Leeds but with just three games remaining, there can be no more slip-ups and victory at the Riverside Stadium could prove crucial. Ahead of kick-off, The YEP has rounded up some of the latest stories...
Chris Wilder has signalled his intention to give more Sheffield United young players game-time before the end of the season with the Blades on the brink of returning to the Championship. Defeat at Newcastle United tomorrow will seal the Blades’ fate, while they could even be relegated with victory if their rivals also pick up three points. Wes Foderingham is set to retain his place after coming back in for Ivo Grbic at Manchester United on Wednesday, and putting in a man of the match display in...

David Moyes insists any decision on his future as manager will be a joint one between himself and the club. The Athletic reported in February that Moyes — whose current deal expires in June — , but he will wait until the end of the season before choosing whether to accept it. Advertisement Scrutiny is growing on the Scot following the club’s exit to and a 5-2 defeat to in their most recent outing — a result Moyes called “so bad, I can hardly put it into words”. Earlier this week as they...
Chris Wilder has not closed the door on Wes Foderingham’s Sheffield United career after restoring the former Rangers goalkeeper to his starting XI. Foderingham lost his place to Ivo Grbic after his January arrival from Atletico Madrid, but replaced Grbic at Manchester United on Wednesday and was the Blades’ man of the match in a 4-2 defeat. Foderingham will retain his place for this weekend’s trip to Newcastle, which could see the Blades officially relegated if they lose to Eddie Howe’s side,...
Goalkeeper Vaclav Hladky doesn't anticipate Ipswich Town having 'big troubles' as they push to secure automatic promotion from the Championship. The Tractor Boys are without a win in three in the league, having drawn their last two games against Middlesbrough and Watford after their demoralising derby defeat to Norwich City. As such, their inactivity over the weekend, due to Coventry City's FA Cup commitments, has allowed others to knock them off their perch in the Championship. Leicester City...
Chris Wilder and his coaching staff have made decisions on the players they want to remain part of the Sheffield United journey going forward and although there is still time for the balance to be redressed in the final five games of this season, the Blades chief admits he will be disappointed “if someone starts playing like Ronaldo or van Dijk” now their futures are up in the air. A host of players are set to become free agents in the summer and although Wilder has publicly stated his intention...
