On this day in 1992, Michael ‘Zico’ Lake scored this screamer for Sheffield Utd at The Dell. Absolutely unstoppable. 🚀

Got the club back up when it was sliding down the divisions - we will be forever grateful for that, those early years and, crucially, the appointment of Dave Bassett - a period that for so many fans ranks among the best years as a Blade. RIP ⚔️

The club has been informed that former Blades chairman, Reg Brealey, has sadly passed away. Rest in peace, Reg.

Deserved win, solid team effort and a lot to like about how United went about that today - much-needed new arrivals also close, which will add quality and depth - really encouraging signs for the remainder of the season #sufc #twitterblades

The players you know. The stories you don’t. Alan Kelly’s introduction to life at United had me in stitches - one of many great stories that sum up what it was like to be part of such a special era. Bassett’s Blades @VerticalEds #sufc #twitterblades

"They could have won the league, but we stuffed them...” 1992 revisited as the Blades do the double over their title-chasing neighbours, with a player who'd been signed about 25 minutes earlier writing his name into folklore. Iconic ⚔️ thestar.co.uk//sport/footbal… #sufc
