Tried 2 links, both don't work.
Basically they have 6 straight wins and are second to us on current form.
8 straight wins including cup games but with 6 clean sheets, Wolfgang, however they are 26 points behind us having played a game more.
I'm not panicking just yet.
Might yet meet them at Wembley again.
Wolfgang, both links work fine
We broke Brentford's winning run at their place, we'll do the same to Sheff Utd.
More worried about Walsall this Saturday.

League cup final next season?
We had K-mac from them ! Nothing else really matters as we will destroy them
Still gonna find it tough to reach the play offs I would say, so cannot imagine they are odds on at all.
Didn't they get taken over by wealthy Arabs or something ?
It went through 2 days after the window closed halfy, so no big money buys yet.
I doubt they're odds on. On great form, inspired by the cup success. A win this weekend and they'll be on a super high too.
They're still a fair few points shy of the final play-off position, and reliant on other teams dropping points, but with 13 games left, if they win a good number of them they might sneak it.
It's a shame they didn't start winning a couple of games earlier, then they'd be right in there.
The Wolves game now carries a lot of weight - win that and they're serious playoff hopefuls.

Yep, every game a cup final for our opponents and that one will be no different.
When maclaren took over at derby and immediately climbed the league table I read comments that Nigel Clough had been holding the rams back but he is showing at Sheffield that he is a decent manager in his own right. I can't see them getting promotion this season but they must be a good bet for next season, particularly if the new owners put some money into the club
Clough came in & seems to be doing well so far. 6 games doesn't make a man but he'll make a name for himself if he sticks around & gets them promoted next season.
For this season, they'll need to win almost all of their remaining games just to get playoffs, and I'd love to see it, but I don't think it's reasonable.
They recruited very well in January it seems, and will be in a good position next season provided they don't lose players.
The biggest concern is Maguire - an extremely capable tall, young, powerful CB who has already been linked with Prem clubs, and Baxter, who was at Everton but has dropped down in search of regular football. If they stay, next season could be a good one to be a Blade.
I’m not sure what surprises me most. Whether it’s the fact that the blades <spit> have gone from relegation threatened to in with a chance (however slim) of the playoffs in such a short space of time or that Wolfgang has started a thread about something other than Wolves that hasn’t immediately turned into a bun fight!
Isn't this Maguires 3rd season as regular? Surprised he hasn't been poached before now.
Like Jackett, Clough can benefit from following some terrible managers in terms of standing.
It's strange but great that Mags is still there. He's been a Blade since 2011. At 6' 4" and only 21, he's already played well over 100 times for the Blades.
He's also got an England U21 Cap and was in the League 1 "team of the year" in 2011/12 so it's even more surprising some of the top teams haven't cottoned on to him.
He is a Sheffield lad though, so there's a chance he just loves the club and wants to stay there.
Sounds a bit like batth minus the england cap.
