  1. 8 Days until we start the challenge and we are just shy of £5,000 as we aim to get as close to £25,000 as possible. Any help appreciated https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/ninetytwo-in-92
  2. We are getting some fantastic donations coming through people - a good majority of which are from Owls fans so thank you all very much - you know who you are....
  3. To the two people who have just donated anonymously - thank you very much - it is greatly appreciated
  4. Firstly, thank you for reading this email, as I am aware there are quite a few similar topics that go on. I am hopeful that the football link involved will capture some attentions!! We are three serving police officers from Sheffield, South Yorkshire and in July, we will be taking on the challenge of visiting all 92 football league grounds in 92 hours. Within our trio, we have an Owl, a Blade and Spurs fan (That generally gets asked quite quickly!) One car, 3 cops, 92 grounds, 92 hours, 2,400 miles. We are taking on this challenge to raise money for The Children’s Hospital Charity, which supports Sheffield Children’s Hospital. https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/ninetytwo-in-92 Sheffield Children’s Hospital is one of just three standalone specialist children’s hospitals in the UK. More than 269,000 patient journeys are made to the hospital each year and its work changes children’s lives from across the UK and around the world every day. My own daughter was born with a heart defect which I have previously discussed on here when raising money for the hospital who looked after her welfare amazingly for a couple of years and we now have friends and colleagues who have their own children currently being treated in the Leukemia ward of the hospital. We are so lucky to have this amazing facility here in Sheffield on our doorstep to give people the best care possible. We will be driving over 2,400 miles in a car and riding bikes to reach the London clubs. We will be eating and sleeping (not much) in the vehicle to complete the challenge to make sure we stick to our 92-hour limit.We will start this challenge at Barnsley Football Club at 8pm on Friday 12th July before arriving back at Hilsborough at 3.30pm then Bramall Lane at 4pm on Tuesday 16th July. We are trying to raise £25,000 for this amazing charity and we would love it if you could support us in any way possible. In the last few weeks we have set up social media profiles on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook as can be seen below. Any donation that anyone can give would be massively appreciated. If you are not in a position to donate then any help you can give through retweets, shares and likes, etc to help us gain as much exposure as possible would also be appreciated Every single penny that is made in charitable donations will go directly to transforming the Cancer and Ward at the Hospital. Thank you once again for reading our post and if this is something you are willing to support we would really appreciate it. If there is any chance this could be pinned that would also be really appreciated.

  5. First away game my six year old daughter has been to and we were right next to it - thanks a lot you set of mindless two hats
  6. And people use to moan when we couldn’t beat the teams toward the bottom of the table!!!
  7. Don’t agree but I’ll accept your point. Simply allows the culture to become what it is which is why it is. Leave it with you
  8. Massive difference though! Only way to get rid of them is to highlight them for what they are. This won’t do that sadly...
  9. I just did that and you deleted it!!
  10. Maybe just not very good
  11. Interesting over the years where I sit, same people who think Palmer is worthy of a place also thought Sean McAllister was a good player at the time!! Cringe!!
  12. Jesus Christ!! Have you seen him when he has to deliver a key ball or finds himself in a good position at an angle in front of goal. Corner flags start shaking - horrendous!!
  13. When he eventually leaves will quickly become a league 2 / conference player. Simply nowhere near good enough and kept because he doesn’t command a wage and occasionally does a job although a bad one...
  14. All I’ll say is it’s an absolute steal mate and well worth it and that’s due to Martin...
  15. Just wanted to place on here my thanks to our club for allowing things like this to happen!! After getting in touch with the club a few weeks ago (didn't think it would be possible), Ozzie Owl (Martin) attended my six-year-old daughters birthday party yesterday and surprised her when the cake was on its way out!! She had absolutely no idea he was going to pop out on her and it made her day even more special. He was a top sport throughout, dancing along and getting involved in all the other entertainment that was going off!! Brilliant memories - Top bloke, Top club!! Roll on August!! UTO
  16. That proves my point even more. We are overpriced.
  17. We are overpriced irrespective of injuries. Over the last six home games, Blades are 17th in form table. Over last 6 away games despite all the injuries we sit 10th. Not saying we will win but its definitely a risk worth taking at the price offered. £27 from me on away win...
  18. Yet despite being so unfit we finished 6th and then 4th out of the 24 super fit teams. Strange that - getting boring now
  19. On we go. We are 'literally' unbeatable at the moment. 7 and counting. 12 off the all-time record!!
  20. 27 of 46 pages to go....
  21. Wonder if Sunderland fans suddenly think after the win today a good run and they could make it into the play offs??!!
  22. This is what we achieved last season toward the end prior to the Fulham throw away game. Prior to that the best we achieved last season was 5. We are currently 6 unbeaten. Can we eclipse last seasons record of 7 and could we just could we be building the foundations for an attempt on our record breaking run of 19 unbeaten from the 60's??!! Come on Wednesday....
