2:25PM Full time: Sheffield Utd 2 Nottingham Forest 0 A frustrating first half for Sheffield United gave way to a swashbuckling second, and they have the win they needed to return to the top two!

Still, a bird in hand and all that... 2:20PM 90+1 min - Sheffield Utd 2 Nottingham Forest 0 There will be four added minutes of highly unnecessary Sheffield United overlapping runs. 2:19PM 90 min - Sheffield Utd 2 Nottingham Forest 0 Still United aren't satisfied.

The Star's James Shield discovers how a pioneering collaboration between Sheffield United and one of the world's finest universities has placed the Championship club at the forefront of a new footballing trend Every single morning, Dr Carl Wells sits behind his desk, fires up his computer and begins filling in the gaps on an array of spreadsheets. It is an arduous task.
