Blackwell faces Blades exit

26 May 2009 - 09:04:52

Sheffield United manager Kevin Blackwell has admitted that he might leave the club following their failure to gain promotion to the Premier League.

The Blades were beaten 1-0 by Burnley in the Championship play-off final at Wembley on Monday, leaving Blackwell to ponder his future at Bramall Lane.

He said: "There is a rebuilding job to do at the club and it might need someone different to do it.

"I will go away and reflect on it, but I am thinking that I might have taken the club as far as it can go.

"I have been in this position before. I know the ramifications. To pick clubs up from the floor after this is difficult.

"It is a gut instinct. I would rather make the decision myself than have it made for me. But I know these decisions will have to be made.

"A lot of lads will have to leave the club now. The whole wage structure has to change."
