More than 2,360 miles, 7 London teams and a rivalry – Sheffield United Premier League away days

More than 2,360 miles, 7 London teams and a rivalry – Sheffield United Premier League away days

From Nottingham to Bournemouth, via seven London teams, Sheffield United supporters have plenty to look forward to next season as they take to the road in the Premier League.

Supporters will clock up a little over 2,360 miles watching their side away from home in some of Europe’s most famous stadiums.

Their nearest trips are to Nottingham and Manchester, while matches at Bournemouth and Brighton are the furthest they will travel.

Sheffield United fans will find out their fixture list on Thursday, June 15 and the season will kick off on Saturday, August 12.

Their excellent top 10 finish of 2019-20 has certainly whet the appetite of what is to come for the supporters, who were then cruelly denied a season in stadiums the following campaign, which the players certainly felt as they struggled to avoid relegation.

It is hoped United’s latest venture into the league regarded as the world’s biggest and best will be far more enjoyable than that second season and fans are already looking forward to the stadiums they will visit.

Who can forget those scenes at the Vitality Stadium in Bournemouth when Billy Sharp netted an 88th-minute equaliser to spark jubilant scenes in the away end? Or when John Fleck levelled at the Emirates to cause a stir?
