    Title information Sheffield United Greatest Games The Blades’ Fifty Finest Matches By Matt Anson Key features • Expertly chosen matches from across 126 years of Sheffield United’s history • Atmospherically presented, drawing on contemporary newspaper reports, club history books and the author’s personal memories • Each featured match includes line-ups, contextual background and overviews of star performers • Written by Matt Anson, who has followed the Blades home and away for 35 years • Photo section including action images and photographs to tie in with the text • Publicity campaign planned including radio, newspapers, websites and magazines Description Sheffield United Greatest Games offers every Blade a terrace ticket back in time. Described in atmospheric and evocative detail, here are 50 of the club’s most thrilling and glorious games of all. Founded in 1889, Sheffield United were soon among the football elite, winning the league championship and FA Cup (twice) within their first two decades. After adding another two pre-war cup wins, the second half of the 20th century saw a sad decline, with the club dropping to the fourth tier before clawing its way back to the top flight and then yo-yoing between the top three divisions in the new century. Here are tales that bring to life the exploits of the club’s greatest ever players, including Bill ‘Fatty’ Foulke, Ernest Needham, Harry Johnson, Jimmy Hagan, Tony Currie and Brian Deane – as well as managers such as John Harris, Dave Bassett and Neil Warnock. There’s action in all four divisions, unforgettable cup and play-off exploits and great derby days, from the first ever victory to the memorable 4-2 win at Hillsborough in 2017.

The results demonstrate that, on average, a managerial sacking results in a post-announcement day market-adjusted share price rise of 0.3%, whilst a resignation leads to a drop in share price of 1% that continues for a trading month thereafter, cumulating in a negative abnormal return of over 8% from a trading day before the event.

The prize on offer was a place in the money-spinning Premiership for 2006/07, with the play off final generally acknowledged as the single most lucrative event in sport. Nick Harris in the Independent: “Never in the history of professional sport has one single fixture been as valuable as tomorrow's Championship play off between Leeds United and Watford. The £21m earned by Evander Holyfield when he beat Mike Tyson in their 1997 rematch - the richest prize fight ever - is small beer by comparison. The £10m on offer when teams vie for Champions' League qualification is a relative pittance.

Umbro designs, sources, and markets football-related apparel, footwear, and equipment. Its products are sold in over 90 countries worldwide.

Other teams supplied by Umbro during the 1930s and 1940s were Sheffield United, Preston North End, Manchester United and Blackpool. Umbro was the official sports manufacturer of the English FA Cup and official sponsor of The FA, being the exclusive supplier of balls to the body's leagues. In 1952, the British team at the Summer Olympics wore Umbro kits, tailored for the needs of their individual sports. Umbro would supply kits for the British Olympics team for the next 20 years. In 1957 Umbro entered the tennis market, producing sports clothing in collaboration with player Ted Tinling. This collaboration extended for three decades. Another sportsman who collaborated with Umbro was Manchester United manager Matt Busby, in 1959. That same year the company started to sell its junior boys' kits, a set of shirt, shorts and socks that would allow young players to wear the same look as their footballing idols.
