[Bayingblade]

That's Woody out then, Chapeltown wasn't part of Sheffield when he was born.

So we're narrowing it down to "within the sound of the Town Hall clock" then, Bert

That would rule Bert out then, couldn't hear it from The Hallamshire Maternity Home, Chapeltown.

It's a weird thought but Kyle Walker has to be one of the best ever Sheffield-born players - how many others can say they were England regulars and playing for a top 4 Prem team week in week out? He will end up with 50+ England caps at least.

Assume Banks doesn't count as he didn't play for us, otherwise Wednesday players would also qualify.

Curve ball - what about Derek Dooley?

I've heard you mention that before, so where abouts in Chapeltown was the maternity home?

Brownie is a born and bred Chapeltown lad and knows the area like the back of his hand but can't place where it was.

Halfway up on the right hand as if you are coming from Bevan Way, opposite the prefabs.

Brownie grew up at the top end of Chapeltown at Burncross on Livingstone Road, but used to deliver papers on Steven Crescent.

Slightly different, but no doubt done many times before my birth on here, to the Foreign Blades thread.
Can we put together a Sheffield United XI [inc subs if possible] of players/former players who were born within this great city of ours?

Manna from Heaven for some of you knowledgeable thread-warmers.

Lisbon Lions , oops sorry wrong team

Lisbon Lions , oops sorry wrong team

NEVER apologise for 'The Lisbon Lions'

Right team, wrong board.
