Sheffield United boss Bryan Robson is to have talks with chairman Kevin McCabe after fans protested against him after Saturday's draw with Scunthorpe.

Robson, who admits he could be running out of time in the job, told BBC Radio Sheffield the fans' reaction had not helped the team in the goalless draw.

"They were on my back and the players backs very early on in the game," said the former Middlesbrough boss.

"If we'd had better support from them I feel we could have gone on to win."

Robson, 50, took charge at Bramall Lane in May, nine days after the Blades' dramatic relegation from the Premier League on the last day of the season.

But despite their pre-season aim of returning to the top flight, United lie 17th in the table, and top scorer James Beattie has not played since Boxing Day after suffering a knee ligament injury.
