Sheffield United’s relegation from the English Premier League was sealed after suffering a heavy 5-1 defeat to Newcastle United. The loss marked their exit from the EPL this season.
Chris Wilder’s team has endured a challenging season, breaking records for most goals conceded in a 38-game Premier League season. With 97 goals conceded, they are on track to surpass Swindon Town’s record of 100 goals conceded in the 1994-95 season.
Having already surpassed the record for the lowest points tally in Premier League history, Sheffield United faces a tough road ahead. Despite upcoming fixtures against Nottingham Forest, Tottenham Hotspur, and Everton, their focus now shifts to the Championship season, where they will start on minus-2 points due to sanctions by the English Football League.
