You planning on getting another? 😃 I remember playing then at Burden and them wearing our away kit. "Waddle lost the World Cup" every time he touched the ball He didn't hold back his delight at their equaliser in front of the Burden Terrace Said it before, but the match at their place was my second ever away match after wolves 93 And they served pot noodles I was 16 and thought fuck me this is what it's like to be PL big time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing what sticks in your mind from years gone by. My Sheff Wed memories from that era are 1982, when we had to beat them at Burnden just to have a prayer of staying up, and we won 3-1 (Tony Henry, Alan Gowling), still one of my best BW memories with a big crowd and great atmosphere. A few months later, after beating Keegan/Newcastle, got the train to Hillsborough on the Tuesday. A huge Bolton following of about 350 on the Leppings Lane terrace, lost 3-1, Mike Lyons scored for them, Henry for us again. Always been my favourite away ground since then, partly because its hardly changed, 2 sides are exactly the same and the other 2 just added seats to the terraces. Proper ground, proper club.

Decided I’d throw my hat in the ring. Did 16.5 miles on day 1 (they did 23 in total). And then another 9 today (they did around 24). They’ve got 6 left to do tomorrow. Won’t be joining them as I’ll be doing shots by 10am by the sounds of things on the coach from Vulcan. If anyone spots me at the match - remember it’s just my body - my brain and mind will be addled! oh, for those that haven’t sponsored them - get chipping in.

Amazing what sticks in your mind from years gone by. It was our first home game of the season after we'd played Notts County away on the Saturday. They had played Newcastle at home & the Geordies had rioted all over Sheffield. We had stopped in Sheffield on our way back from County ( coincidentally JC was with us)..... I'm pretty sure Jimmy Nail got nicked that day & got sent down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
