Hide AdZoe Johnson, Sheffield United Women general manager, said: “The success of the Women’s Euros, particularly the fixtures at Bramall Lane, including the semi-final, has highlighted an appetite for women’s football in the city.
'A special moment for everyone’
“In addition to the success of the Lionesses, earlier this summer we announced that our women’s team was to play home fixtures in the 2022-23 campaign at Bramall Lane. The move shows how connected this club is and how dedicated we all are to our women's team and as a result our season tickets have already trebled from the figures for last season.
“Every time we play at the Lane it gives our supporters a chance to watch our women’s team represent the club in our historic stadium. To call Bramall Lane our home is a special moment for everyone involved. We welcome Blades fans and general supporters of women’s football to be part of the journey.”
