Nothing to worry about it is just a survey to see if anyone is interested in student flats in S2 ;)

exactly what I'd say has happened, just because it's United doesn't mean to say they won't do it to just to make an extra £20.

Two today.

Asking if I had experienced/suffered any noise related issues in my lifetime. Then asked me if any of my friends and family had.

So, I asked why? After giving two "no" answers.

"We're ......... (couldn't hear due to mumbling!!) Sheffield United..... would you care to call in at Bramall Lane in the ....... (more mumbling!!) to meet/make an appointment with someone?

Both calls to mobile...

Asked how they got my details and ...... quiet. Then a "Thank You" and then phone down.

Checked out both Sheffield area numbers, but none connected to SUFC as far as I can see. So why are they using SUFC as a reference? Not once, but twice within an hour?

I had a phone call from a Sheffield number today asking if I had had any issues with noise at work.
 
Just had one of these calls, on my landline (which is not a Sheffield number). Just got a recorded message in a woman's voice saying "an attempt was made to contact you by Sheffield United".

1471 showed it as a Sheffield number, but doesn't seem to be one associated with the club. Googled the number and it has one negative rating on www.shouldianswer.co.uk. My thoughts are it's an attempt to get me to ring back a premium number or some other scam. The fact that it knew of my assocation with the club makes me wonder if the members list has been grabbed. Anyone else had one of these?
 
SUFC (or its agents) are trying to get you to sign up for the Super-Draw

I've been called twice recently
I've been in the draw since its inception...
There's obviously a Twat academy somewhere
 
It's ok chaps, check out the back door of cubicle 3 in Dempseys, the answer is written there! Not for me though, but thanks for the offer!!

Have you at any time wrote your phone number on the gents toilet wall at the lane?

Cheers for that, now you mention it I think I do recall getting one of those calls a couple of years ago, though on that occasion there was actually someone on the other end.
 
After 50yrs on the Kop I think my hearing has suffered, why when fans shout abuse must it be in my earholes

They're not going to sign you up to play CM or RWB so let them call you back.
 



My old man got a call regards hearing and deafness suffered through work. It was connected to SUFC in that the hearing exams were done there.

He was offered out of court £5000. After deductions and their cut he ended up with about £1200. I told him to complain about that because it’s one hell of a cut, and somehow it’s magically gone up to £2100.

It’s ok for free money I guess. if you get a call, go for it.
 
Had two missed calls last week from a Sheffield number. Didnt recognise it and nothing came up on Google.

When I called it back from work it went straight to hold music. Then a woman answered, gave her name and said she was 'on behalf' of Sheffield United. So just put it down.

I think this has all arisen since Ricky put in a claim against the club for hearing loss due to the deafening fan noise at the Lane every other week for years on end.

No disclaimers on the way into the ground either.

Top one says 'if you don't fucking bounce you're a Blade'

Middle one says 'they're all fucking wankers at the Lane'

The bottom one says 'Hi Ho Sheffield Wednesday'.

That's all the songs they have.

That's not terms and conditions - that's a warning in Elvish about entering the Lonely Mountain and disturbing Smaug the Dragon

That deserves a Thread all on it's own, though maybe change it to 'Have you ever written anything on the gents toilet wall at the lane'

I don't know what people have against cold callers. When my minor accident claims and PPI repayments finally come in I'm going to be loaded.

I was over at Pies For The People (a division of Crab Industries) this afternoon and got chatting to big Vern.
After years of using chainsaws and meat cleavers his hearing has been impaired, when he received a call he thought they said have you ever caused an accident or injury.

He now has 32 no win no fee claims pending, and has promised that the drinks are on him when his payout (s) arrive.

Or as we call it, Pies fit for Human Consumption, if still in date.
