Owl Capone

Oh dear. Like so many other "good coaches" terrible manager!! So many of our players at the time praised his coaching methods , which is bizarre as they managed to lose so many games!! ,Never mind though We were the East Bank Republican Army!!

Just heard the 70's terrace legend Sammy is no more. RIP Sammy

August 1st onwards. "Plenty going on in the background. Waiting for the chairman to come back and give the green light, so we can get one or 2 over the line/ in the building/through the door". Sit up and watch SKY sports news until COB and constantly hit the refresh button here. So Business as usual

of course you did.

Perfect role for Chansiri then!

As well as FF supposedly joining the pork, I heard a less convincing story Fletch was also discussing with them as well. FF has now sorted his house in chapeltown and appears to be moving to the south of the city , so something on that front could well be happening.

No doubt someone else has posted this on the 17 pages somewhere, but hes signing for grunters!

In the mid 70's it was midfielder Phil Henson. Skinny as hell but a lot of ability. Out of place in the 3rd division, he generally got kicked all over. Sadly some of our fan base really gave him the dogs abuse, for what I could never fathom out. Truth was he was too good for us at that time

A programme from the away match at Man City played 07/09/1960 a 1-1 draw. The day I was born. My kids managed to get me one for my 50th birthday

Eric Potts, when married, lived in Chapeltown and used to jump on the chap supporters coach at 1.45. We parked up in Law brothers car park and Eric would sprint round with his carrier bag to the ground. The Port Vale 0-3 game we had the joys of watching the home debut of the worst keeper to ever pull on a Wednesday shirt. (he made Ola Tidman look like Lev Yashin) the legend known as Barry Watling. Vales first shot a tame 25 yarder head high went straight through his hands

The game you are talking about, we won 1-0 courtesy of a Bobby Brown goal. It was early in the season and was an early goal. In the dying seconds Bolton won a corner and Alan Gowling put it into the net, but the ref had already blown the whistle as soon as the corner was taken, so it was disallowed. The season before, we played them on a wet foggy February afternoon. It was a re arranged game and was on the same day as the 4th round of the cup. We had just signed experienced keeper Bobby Ferguson on loan from West Ham. it wasnt an inspiring debut from him as we were 4-0 down at half time. We did win the 2nd half 2-0 though!!!

No idea fella. Was somewhere around Wadsley Bridge when the alleged incidents were taking place. Would you like me to pass on any information i may glean?, You are clearly keen to find out. Whats up, do you secretly desire to get involved with the more aggressive side of football?

Sorry Belfast I was waiting for GEOFFREY to come out of his attic and give us the benefit of his expert opinion. You cozying up nicely with him though I see. All puritans together. Those that understand, no explanation is required. To those who don't no explanation is possible.

Just got through to him. Yes tickets still available

My mate is wanting to sell his train tickets for Reading. Now going by car. He bought them through Splitticketing for £75 but will sell them for £50.00 The times of travel are flexible as long as the train STOPS at Derby, Birmingham and Banbury in both directions. He's looked originally at the 08.18 from Sheffield outward and 18.15 return from Reading. Normal cost is I think about £99 return If anyone is interested message me and I'll sort it with him (he's not on OT)

Glad i've put me specs on now. At first glance i thought it said Sheffield Wednesday Hooligans LTD. Had visions of a board meeting with New chairman Tommo, Treasurer Sammy, and a board consisting of other people best described as characters. On the plus side the first motion passed would have been a posse visiting Gibson for a chat

Whitham for Wednesday Cassidy and Barker for cunthorpe (as it used to say on the old scoreboard when it was on its last legs Along with Frimsby)

Alan Woodward Shoveling S**T Tony Currie walks on water (na na na na nah the barsteward sank) We took the shoreham easy easy Bertie mee said to Bill shankly Tony Curries got VD, he said yes what a mess, so have the SUFC If anyone can pop these oldies but goodies onto a USB stick for tomorrow it would be much appreciated

Birmingham came on twice in 71 &72 and stood up the top not the middle. BLUNTS??? where did you dig that from. I can categorically state they NEVER came on our kop with any intention of trying to take it. Even in Gerry Youngs testimonial when they had the numbers, they still went up to the high point of the kop and steered clear of the middle. The month of January 1969 was one of the worst. Leeds in the 3rd rd of the cup, it was going off all afternoon. 2 weeks later v Man City huge brawl at the back of the kop at the final whistle went on for 10/15 minutes. Then Birmingham in 4th rd of cup. They brought a good 15k and had a few thousand next to the middle section, again going off all afternoon. It happened and as much as the liberal left would like to, you cant rewrite, or erase it from history.

If it can happen, then a front 2 of Winnall & Hooper and get a couple of million for Rhodes maybe, got my doubts about Hoopers fitness though,so could Rhodes do the job under the right manager? .Not forgetting wide men who can actually cross a ball consistently.

funeral is at 1.30 Grenoside north chapel. Wake after at SWFC .Both carparks open until 9pm

Funeral now 1.30 to allow crematorium time to prepare. Turnout will be massive

Terrible news RIP my old mate . UTO

Since the greatest game ever seen at the shrine. Coming back from 4-2 down to beat European champions Manchester United 5-4 (should have been 6-4!!). How time flies
