I remember that game against Liverpool. We won and Brian Deane scored that goal where Bruce Grobellar was trying to dribble the ball out of his area. Deano nicked the ball off him and hit a 30 yard shot into the goal for 2-0 (I think). Mel Rees played a blinder. After the game I met some Liverpool fans in the pub. They were furious with Grobellar who they said was a clown and praised Mel. I told them he cost £25,000 and they said you mean £250,000? I said no £25000. They couldn't believe it. A great Basset steal and great keeper. A tragic loss but a Blades legendWasn't his debut against Liverpool at home? I remember thinking when I heard that an unknown goalkeeper was in net that we wouldn't have a chance. He pulled off five or six fantastic saves and had one of the best games I've seen a Blades goalkeeper have. RIP.
Yeah and I'm not sure if it was the game that Deano scored from just inside their halfWasn't his debut against Liverpool at home?

Remember seeing him and thinking what a keeper, still can't believe it was just 9 games
Brief but brilliant,It was 8 games. And we had a good run:
United 2 Liverpool 0
Villa 1 United 1
United 2 Oldham 0
Everton 0 United 2
United 2 Spurs 0
United 1 Arsenal 1
Notts County 1 United 3
United 2 Leeds 3
last home game of the season was an incredible game where an injury to Mel Rees, cost us a game where I sill dont know how we lost , they cleared 10 good chances and their first goal was offside and freakily lucky
Also there, what a save from Mel.Was at that game at Goodison all them years back.
Unbelievable save. He did quite a few in a short Blades career.
Fond memories.
God bless you Mel.

Tracey injured his shoulder after a challenge by Wise in our 2-1 win (Whitehouse scored both goals) at Chelsea. Kelly was still at PrestonWe drew with Villa due to a last minute equaliser by them as well.
What had happened to Tracy and Kelly?
