Chris Morgan and the players are looking forward to their first home Championship clash of the new season and the skipper says the fans make Bramall Lane one of the most feared venues in the country.

United's leader praises the fans for their backing to date and admits they have a key role to play again, starting on Saturday when the Blades welcome QPR, who have a couple of familiar faces within their ranks, to S2:

"I can't remember the last time we kicked-off at home, it seems like we always start and finish the season away from home.

"It is a special atmosphere at Bramall Lane and the fans have created that over the years. We also know that other clubs don't like coming to play here.

"In my Barnsley days I didn't look forward to coming to Bramall Lane because the supporters always act as the 12th man, especially in the second-half of matches when we kick towards the Kop.

"We all know things are tight financially, but the fans have backed us all pre-season and I am sure they will during the season. Season ticket sales maybe haven't been as high as in previous years, but we all know the reasons for that.

"We have got two old friends coming back to the Lane on Saturday and I am sure people will want to come and see Neil and Paddy."

Morgan is also well-aware that the players have their part to play in increasing attendances and admits playing at home in front of a packed Bramall Lane is one of the biggest lures of turning out for the Blades:

"The best way to get the fans inside Bramall Lane is for us to get some good results and I am sure the supporters will respond in numbers.

"Sometimes you hear players saying they prefer to play away from home because the pressure isn't as intense, but obviously they don't have the support we have.

"The lads love playing at home, especially when we are winning and the crowd is right behind us."
