Boss of Sheffield United, Wilder, scolds taunting Luton supporters
Rhys Norrington-Davies was hurt early in yesterday’s victory, and Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder was not impressed.
Speaking about the boy’s injury that may have ended his career, Wilder remarked, “Any average human being who loves their football maybe didn’t realise that the boy’s been out for over a year.” He had to get around that by staying away from the lights.
“They’re over Tom (Lockyer).” I’m not putting this and that one together or comparing the two; it’s a different scenario. Everyone was moved by Tom’s story and is clamoring for him to return to the field. Al has collaborated with him on both Jack Lester and the Wales team.
“The boy has been gone for more than a year, but we’re not making any comparisons. He’s returned to being a professional football player, first and foremost. He’s got himself back on the field in the second place, and he’s got himself back in the team in the third. All he needs is a little bit of good fortune to restart his career. It’s a major blow to both of us. We’ll evaluate it upon our return to Sheffield.”
