This week on Hang It in the Louvre, we’re joined by Travelling Blade to choose three images from his life following United.
There’s Billy Sharp, arms outstretched after scoring his first Premier League goal at Bournemouth. There’s a deeply treasured photo from Sunderland away, capturing the friendships and community that have come from following the Blades, including the late Jonny from Shoreham View. And then there’s Chris Basham at Fulham, an image that marks a brutal end of an era.
(We’re not reproducing the Basham injury here. Everyone knows what happened, and if for some reason you’d like to revisit it, you can choose your own preferred level of gruesomeness.)
Three very different pictures, but all getting at the same question: what is it that makes following Sheffield United mean so much?
