The Den- Millwall

I was thinking Millwall but for some reason I couldn't remember a roof on the away end.

I saw it earlier on FB and the consensus was that it was Millwall. I honestly wouldn't have known.

In the FB comments it says this the Cold Blow Lane end. Blades fans in the far left of the pic.

One of mine.
"Shittylegs" was the name known to only a select few of us Myrtle Rd lads for the poor unfortunate groundsman whose life we made a misery

Victoria Station, with the old war memorial on the right

Thanks, I thought so, looking at the buildings it seems obvious but the War Memorial was a bit of a cununderum to me.
It appears the memorial, in memory of all Great Central Railway workers killed in WW1, erected 1922, enclosed into a station extention, 1938, till 1970 when the station closed. The bronze name plaques were resited under the Wicker Arch 1971

Due to neglect and vandlisum the plaques were moved to the Royal Victoria Crowne Plaza were they now reside.

"Mr Reliable", if he'da played for a London club, a hundred caps no trouble.
Even in his Halcyon Days, Alan had to contend with, Ron Springett, a most excellent 'keeper but there weren't a fag paper of ability and nouse between them and the selectors should have been more generous to Hodgy, at no detriment to the team. They were the two top keepers of their day.
Lucky, nay, honoured, to have witnessed his whole SUFC career.

Before the 1-0 win at home to Barnsley

Agana's debut and scored, Feb 20th 1987-88 and relegated to Div 3.

V Leeds probably, TC this side of the centre circle, Eh?

No, it was v Bristol City in September 1970. We have had a discussion about this photo before and it was definitely the Bristol City match, we were losing 3-0 midway in the 2nd half but fought back to draw 3-3

The internet's rife with folks slagging off the redevelopment of Sheffield city centre. Here's Hong Kong, 1962 and modern day...

I can see my house in there, Alderson Place and the old chapel that stood on the corner of Bramall Lane and Rowland Rd.
