RIP. Great words and condolences to you and your family.

Condolences. Brunsmeer were a top team in the early 80s along with throstles and Middlewood rovers. I played a year younger than your dads team but remember knocker and steff oldfield, good players. Home pitches were on James fairley where the hotel is at meadowhead. Happy days. Chin up pal.

My brother Mick Fisher played for Brunsmeer with his best mate Sean Deakin both played for Sheffield boys with Chris Wilder

Year older than me. I played for Sheffield boys with Carl Bradshaw, Wayne Jacob's and chris Marsden. Think Kevin Pressman played in your dad's brunsmeer side 81 ish

Sadly yesterday we lost our Dad,Tony Fisher aged 79. My dad was a lifelong Blade,season ticket holder and shareholder. He regaled in tails of how he taught Chris Wilder all he knew,as my dad had managed Chris at Brunsmeer. He told me out of all the lads he managed, Chris was the last one who he thought would become a manager. When Chris took over, my dad attended the fans forum at Handsworth WMC and dads arrival was perfectly timed in sinc with Chris's arrival. Chris made a proper fuss of my dad which made his day. My dad managed to attend the first 2 home games this season,albeit sat in a wheelchair as he was so weak. Happily he managed to see us beat Palace before he passed.Fly safe dad love you always UTB

My deepest condolences.

He did indeed the fat bastard. I remember my dad telling me he bumped into Pressman in a bar and he never acknowledged him. Wilder on the other hand bought my dad a pint and had time for a chat. Chalk and cheese

[Brookblade]

I would like to thank each and every one of you for taking the time to respond to my post. It has truly lifted my spirits. Who knows what the future holds with todays announcement regarding our board. I hope and pray it will be a positive outcome and Dads protege remains at the helm for many years to come UTB fellow Bladesmen

 

[SK10Blade]

I don't know you and I didn't know your Dad but it always makes me fill with pride to see how Blades fans will pull together for something like this. I've heard comments about football being all important when actually, in cases like this its family. No doubt we've all been hit by moments like this and a simple "RIP" help enormously. Go on your journey Tony, say "Hi" to as many Blades as you like but watch us from above, with a bit of luck the best is yet to come.
