It says much for how Postecoglou has changed the mood that the crowd stayed with Spurs. It is easy to imagine how toxic the atmosphere would have been at 1-0 down six months ago; what anger and frustration there was, though, was directed largely at the referee, Peter Bankes, and his inability to deal with what might euphemistically be called Sheffield United’s game management.
