Battle of Bramall Lane | 2002 | Sheffield United v West Bromwich | Santos tackle & match abandoned. 

@4:15 -- I'm so grateful for the announcer adding this bit of backstory which fills in so much context for what's about to happen 😅

Commentator said he wanted to see what the first challenge is like, and he saw it. 😂

Albion were awarded a 3-0 win and the three points by The Football League.The decision was unanimous, and Nagle said "any other decision would be grossly unfair and set a precedent that would not be in the best interests of the game". United were fined £10,000 by The Football Association, Santos was given a six-match ban (four, plus two for violent conduct), Suffo paid a £3,000 fine and received a six-match ban (three for the dismissal, three for violent conduct), and Keith Curle was made to pay a fine of £500 and received a two-match ban, while Warnock was made to pay £300 for "improper conduct towards the fourth official".. .. .. . (just in case you were wondering.. .. note - taken from wikipedia)

This is ten times more entertaining than football nowadays lol

Great commentating to tell us about the previous incident re the over the top sending off. The guy really did his homework..

I'll never know why Suffo dropped the nut on McInnes, just pure madness, tempers were freyed, but bloody hell

The drag that must have resulted from those oversized jerseys! 😏

Will never understand why a goalkeeper or last defender commits a professional foul so early in a game.

Remember it well. Went with my dad and was sat in the Kop end. Madness!

Sheffield looked like they were trying to red card themselves into the match being called. Like 3 more could have been given.

Megson v Warnock. The Sheffield Derby everyone wanted but were sadly denied 😁

6:45 hahah how brown wasn’t given a second yellow for that just because it would have meant sending off a 4th player LOL

10:55 Hahaha is Warnock wearing the first team shirt ?? Hahah what manager does that LOL

Vengo de parte de un suscriptor de La Media Inglesa. Nacho fantasma.

At least there was some fighting spirit

Warnock has become something of a national treasure this game really emphasises what he was really all about.

Camera pans to the scoreboard's "Do you want to improve your skills?" Which one would that be, eh? When people talk about Playstation football, this is what I had in mind.

The only good thing in this video is the PASSION. The passion that you won't see in nowadays football. Football these day is all about money and win only.

The referee bottled some decisions. Michael Brown should have had a second yellow which actually was worthy of a straight red, but just got a speaking to. Keith Curle should have had a straight red but was only given a yellow then later should have had a second yellow but only got a speaking to. The referee obviously bottled those decisions because he was mindful of the game being abandoned, which in the end it was

The usual Warnock ill discipline.

"It will be interestring to see what that, first challenge is like." *Santos fucking kills him.*

Twenty years later and the pair of them are still hoofing it around in the second division. Some things never change.

There was definitely a dodgy aspect to this game.

I have a book about famous red cards and this match is featured. It had 4 reasons why in hindsight a storm could have been predicted to happen in the match: 1: West Brom manager Gary Megson was a hero for Sheffield Wednesday 2: Neil Warnock was... Neil Warnock 3: Neither side had a playing style likely to top the fair play charts 4: The history of the Johnson/Santos incident That said I don’t think they could have even predicted what actually happened

That was a disgusting challenge on the WBA no 10 fr

who do they think they are, Leeds?

I'm here for the Media Inglesa. Nacho Ghost

Anyone else think that the Blades were trying go get themselves sent off towards the end, in the hope of the match being abandoned?

The legend Maguire was there

Fantastic stuff

Keith Curle 😂😂 Dichio would have made him wash his dishes

A battle indeed

The best thing about this is Warnock wearing the Sheff United kit under his tracksuit 😂

Moore and Megson 😍

Holy damn 😮

How did Curle not get a red 😄

Proud day for the club

Can't remember what fines, if any, Sheff United got for this, but they should have been docked points. And Warnock was just Warnock, never had any respect for him, second-rate manager at best

warnock "im proud of my lads! megson "it was a disgrace!" UTB ⚔️

it all started with the santos tackle warnock cant control himself nevermind his players

Good old Warnock, sneaky as f@£k!

Two clear cut cases of *assault* and yet....nothing. A ban and a fine. What would give you see a copper walk on and arrest a player for that behaviour? 🤔🤔

I remember this one

Could have put the james beattie win video up instead

Who's here after saw Maguire Spotlight Questions?

Is the full match avaliable somewhere?

JAFFN

What did you expect with Neil Warnock at the helm?

Should be known as the disgrace of Sheffield UTD.

This all warnock’s doing!

I take it everyone knows Neil Warnock is an anagram of Colin Wanker?

Legend says this match inspired Messi to start playing football

A year later Sheffield United played Liverpool at Anfield in the second leg of the League Cup semi-final. United led 2-1 from the first leg. In the Anfield game the Liverpool goalkeeper came out of the area and handled the ball, in the same way that Tracey did in the West Brom game. But the ref bottled it and did not send off the Liverpool goalkeeper. He just gave a yellow card. Tracey, for the same offence, was sent off.

Proper football!

That George Santos tackle was so bad, it warranted a claret card

Kasper Wikestad sent me here.

One thing you will never do is out fight a blades team

I love how they've tried to tell a different lie to explain this

Today is the birthday of George Santos August 15th. A funny old game twitter account remind me of this.

woow looks like sheffield did the rest on purpose

Wait why is the linesman on the wrong end of the pitch?

Commentator "Accidental collision that broke Santos' eye socket"... yeah, very easy to 'accidentally' break someones eye socket. Johnson got what he deserved.

Great watch but did Neil Warnock hatch a plan to get match abandoned once the sending offs happend? Did the fixture get replayed what was the outcome? What a difference from todays games I miss these types of matches.

retrotitt kul!

The facts that Sheffield United uploaded this😂

Conozco el efecto Delia

Warnock was only fined GBP 300? I’d say a fine of GBP 50,000 would be more appropriate, plus a one-match touchline ban.

he got the ball

Of all the old games to show you glorify this one … well done 👏👏👏 shambles of a club

When blade ran on pitch n knicked west brom flag ,, outside outside 😂

More fight than Man Utd have today xD

And he wonders why people call him Colin.

Blades will revenge today

Imagine neymar was at the end of santos challenge.

Another sending off tomorrow. Hopefully for the baggies

They don't make em like that any more😅

Defo a second yellow for brown 😂

He got the ball

So with the game abandoned...i guess it's a point a piece then...despite WBA leading 3-0

truly football is the sport of kings.

Jags wasn't even asked to be goalie. 😂

Pure shithousery from Warnocl

It will forever be the shame of English Football that Warnock made a living out of it

Heads gone

Neil Warnock being a cheat... glad he didn't get away with it.

Warnock should never be employed by any football club again

Bloody hell.Not nice and that's putting it mildly.

Belarus natural reources Clay Sand Gravel Granite

Santos had 1 job 🤑😹

Kesini karena cebol tv wkwkw

Colin W was never known for his sportsmanlike behaviour.

Santos should have gone in higher and harder against that w⚓️Johnson.Suffo headbut great.👍⚓️UTB

Hahahahahahah relegation coming

UTB,FTO and scummy Leeds.👍

Should be known as the warnock disgrace

Shameful United.... How anyone could be proud of players behaving like that is shocking.... I certainly wouldn't consider Sheffield United to be an overly dirty side but on this occasion they were a disgrace.

Curle reckons he’s a hero in this game 😂

Cheating warnock

Typical Colin side.
