Was Woody born in Sheffield? And don't think he was a Blade as lad, could be wrong mind. Stan, Maguire and Marsden were all Wednesday fans as lads so I believe. Sheffield born United fans that haven't been mentioned yet - Bradders, Mitch Ward, Jamie Hoyland, Chris Wilder, 'Super' Jack Lester, 'Queenie' Thompson and Kyle Naughton. Stainrod was another from Sheffield although on the dark side as a lad.

Wasn't Carl Tiler from just over the border, Aston, Anston, Kiveton or somewhere around there?

from chapeltown

 

[Bert]

from chapeltown

He was born there, like many others because that's where the maternity home was but he didn't live there.
Bert was born there but is from Ecclesfield.

Paul was born in Rotherham.

Brian was born in Sheffield.

Not quite as impressive as the Switzerland v Albania match where two brothers were on opposing sides!

Jeff Eckhardt was from Sheffield, pretty sure he went to Newfield School at Norton Lees.

I think he went to my old school, King Ecgbert. When I used to ask if Eggies had produced any footballers, that was the only answer. No idea who he is, who he played for, or whether he was any good. But there we go.

 

[SUFC Handsworth]

Has anyone mentioned Andy Barnsley. More of a Blade than a right back!

 

[Karaoke Blade]

Dave Herbert who played for Wednesday in the 70s went to our school (Carter Lodge) and was a Blades fan.
(Steve Ludlham played in the same school team, a Wednesdayite who went on to play for United.)

 

[HuddersfieldBlade]

Dane Whitehouse was in the year above me at Brook, think he was from Woodthorpe

It did produce Joe Root and Jess Ennis though... and I had to be the one absolutely shit at sport!
