STEELY-EYED RESOLVE

Campbell's super to give struggling Blades a huge lift at bitter rivals Wednesday's expense

- BY TOM BLOW

TYRESE CAMPBELL finally gave Sheffield United fans something to cheer about this season by scoring a double against their big rivals.

Tom Cannon also scored as the Blades moved to within a point of safety, while leaving the Owls 17 points behind them.

And Campbell said he could tell there was something special brewing before kickoff.

"You can see by the reaction after the game how everyone was buzzing," said the striker.

"I had a feeling before the game that everyone was locked in, everyone was ready to go.

"It was a really good feeling, and a feeling that we can carry on into the season. Having that 3-0 win away from home, especially here."

The Steel City derby is always loud, but the atmosphere was more hopeful than confident as the game started. Both teams are stuck in the bottom three, and neither side has shown much quality in recent weeks.
