Sheffield United ground out a 1-0 win over Ipswich Town in the FA Cup third round to see them safely into the next round and give the club the ideal boost before next week's Sheffield derby at Bramall Lane.

The Blades were good value for the win, and despite making nine changes to the starting line up, never looked in danger of not coming away with the win at Portman Road, a victory sealed by a stunning first half strike from Nathan Thomas.

It was just reward for Thomas, who has had to wait patiently for his chance in the United shirt, but he nabbed his second of the season when he curled home from the edge of the box. He was replaced early in the second half through injury, but he had done his bit for the day.

Following the game, Blades fans took to Twitter to voice their delight at the performance and give the players some encouragement and words before the big one next week.
