Not sure about influence of NW teams. I am not a native but moved to Sheffiel as I met a gorgeous local lass. Love the place. Have three sons who have lived in several places in UK and France but have all moved back to Sheffield. They all chose Sheffield over Paris!
Sheffield has a massive place in the history of football. Much more than any place in NW including Manchester and Liverpool. Oldest team in the world - Sheffield Club. Oldest ground in the world - Sandygate Lane - Hallam FC. Sheffield rules make up a large part of the rules we play under today. Everybody acknowledges the part Sheffield played in the development of the game. Just a disgrace we haven’t got a team to honour our history.
