Another gallery of Sheffield United Vintage images today taken from the 1960s and early 1970s. The highlight of these years came undoubtedly in the 1971-72 season when a newly promoted United team won eight and drew the other two of their opening ten top-flight games.

That form would fall away once they surrendered leadership of the division in October of 1971, but a final position of 10th place that season was still a credible achievement.
