Slightly over five years ago, Rangers winger Jamie Murphy was helping Sheffield United into FA Cup semi-finals.
Sheffield United fans are tweeting warm messages to Rangers winger Jamie Murphy.
Five years and one day ago, the Rangers star helped United into an FA Cup semi-final following a 2-0 win over Charlton.
The Blades’ official Twitter account made a post about the famous victory on Friday, with Murphy responding ‘What a day’.
And suffice to say that the 29-year-old was pelted with messages about returning to Bramall Lane.
Murphy, who spent an excellent two years with the Sheffield giants, would certainly be welcomed back by many fans of the Yorkshire side.
But Rangers are his boyhood club and he won’t be going anywhere for a while – mostly because he only joined the Gers on a permanent basis for £1 million last summer [The Daily Mail], but also because he’s injured.
The Scotland winger hasn’t kicked a ball for the Ibrox side since August due to injury.
The English club – then in League One – were ultimately beaten 5-3 by Hull City at Wembley, Arsenal going on to beat the Tigers in the final.
