Mirror: Sheffield United official agency was hacked and posted several posts to mock Xie Wednesday star Bannan

May 20th According to the Mirror, Sheffield United's official Twitter account was hacked, and the hackers posted a post to mock her mortal enemy Sheffield star Barry Bannan.

Hackers began publishing a series of strange posts on Monday afternoon, attracting the attention of fans. Some fans asked the hacker about Xie Wednesday star Barry Bannan, and the hacker replied: "It's out of date." Then he posted: "Why do you hate Barry Bannan so much? Should I fire him?" Another post said: "Okay, I just like Barry Bannan." Another post read: "I will follow everyone who devalues ​​Barry Bannan, and I just found out he is from another club."

Bannan, now 35, has been playing for Sheffield United's archenemy Sheffield United since transferring from Crystal Palace in 2015. He made nearly 450 appearances at Yorkshire Club and helped the team advance from the League One to the Championship in 2023.

However, the hacker quickly changed the topic and posted another post: "Let's forget Barry Bannan, new topic: Manchester United > Manchester City."

Sheffield United club quickly released a statement about the hacker attack, which is as follows: "Due to the cyber attack, Sheffield United's X social media account was temporarily broken. Any posts, interactions or private messages posted by the account are not authorized by the club. We will inform supporters of the account status at any time and update after regaining control."

Then, all posts posted by the hacker were quickly deleted, and the account seemed to be restored to normal service. The club wrote in a statement following up: "It can be confirmed that the account has been restored to control and all posts posted by the hacker have been deleted. The club apologizes for the offensive content posted by the hacker on our page, which does not represent the opinions of anyone from Sheffield United."

Sheffield United certainly has a lot to consider this week, and the Yorkshire team will strive to return to the Premier League in the final of the Championship play-off against Sunderland over the weekend. Due to poor performance at the end of the season, the team failed to advance directly. However, they successfully advanced with a total score of 6-0 in the semi-finals.

If Sheffield United wins at Wembley, it will be their third Premier League advance in the past six years. Meanwhile, Sunderland hopes to return to the top league since relegation in 2017, during which they have also been downgraded to the third-tier league.
