Thousands of Sheffield United tickets unsold for Nottingham Forest showdown

Sheffield United's play-off first-leg clash against Nottingham Forest this weekend is yet to sell out with thousands of tickets still available for the game at Bramall Lane.

According to the Sheffield Star, and as of Wednesday morning, around 3,000 are available to Blades fans amid suggestions that some supporters presumed they had all been sold. But that is not the case and they are still available although they are expected to all be purchased before the two sides clash on Saturday. Forest have already sold out their away allocation.

United fans have already sold out their entire allocation for the second leg at the City Ground on Tuesday (May 17) and all 2,000 were sold almost immediately as soon as they went on sale. The Blades have had the highest home crowds in the Championship this season and have narrowly edged out Forest, who are second in the average attendance table.
