Crawley Town manager Richie Barker told BBC Surrey:
Richie Barker: Crawley boss after Sheffield United draw
"It was a good point and on a positive note, six games unbeaten.
"I've just said to the players the longer this run goes on and obviously that should motivate us more.
"But the lads are devastated in there and it comes to something when Crawley Town go to Bramall Lane and draw and the players are devastated, so I think that's a measure of how far we've come."
