"It's a draw!"
When the news of Norwich drawing with Millwall at home came back to Bramall Lane Stadium, Sheffield United fans all widened their eyes, not expecting their rivals to falter at such a crucial moment.
"A draw?!"
"Who drew, Queens Park Rangers?"
"Norwich! Norwich drew with Millwall away, and they now only have 97 points!"
In the stands, fans holding phones spread the news, and those who had been anticipating it started calculating quickly.
"I've seen Norwich's goal difference; it's 40! A draw doesn't change..... and before this game, our goal difference was 44, add in the 3 from this game, it's 47!"
"A 7 goal difference?!"
"So even if we lose the next game, Norwich would need to score 8 goals to overtake us?"
"Isn't that..... confirmation of promotion?"
"Yes! We are promoted! We are confirmed promoted!! Sheffield United is back in the top league!!"
