A bit of fun as we approach the possibility of getting the upper-hand against our 'friends' across the city. I know that 'enjoy' and Hillsborough don't normally go together, but it can happen. My best moment was in 1996. The kids bought me tickets for the Euros, and the first game was Denmark v Portugal. I went with interest, but what made my day was finding my seat in the North Stand, and then looking across at the Kop: absolutely packed with Danes, and a noisy sea of red-and-White. I think I spent more time looking at that, with a feeling that all was right with world, than looking at the game. 3 matches with the S6 Kop solid, totally, boisterously red-and-White. Pleasure indeed. What have been your best moments?
 



Watching from the Pigs end (North Stand) as I couldn't get tickets for the away end, seeing United win 2 - 1 and hearing at first hand the moaning Pigs around me and seeing the Leppings Lane End erupt! Asaba and D'jaffo the scorers.

I still have the scars though of having to go to their ticket office and when I asked for a ticket for the derby game their security check was ""which team do you support"!? As primitive as it was, it almost worked because I had to obviously say Sheffield Wednesday!

During the game there was an announcement that said "To any Sheffield United fans, in the home stands we ask that you remain quiet etc"! This guy a row in front of me stood up and shouted "I KNOW WHERE YOU ARE YOU PIGGY B*****S!" Me and my two mates who were also Blades, did then start to sing along to their pitiful chant of der der der der der der, but just missed out the Wednesday at the end! This was the same game where a United fan celebrated in the Pigs Kop and I remember seeing him legging it!
 
For anyone who was there, I can't imagine anything coming close to the 3-1 in March 1992. It was supposedly their revenge for beating them at the Lane in November, but Bobby Bobby Davison on his debut had other ideas. Should have been 4-1 as a cross went straight through Chris Woods' body but Glyn Hodges had assumed he was going to save it and had already started jogging back.
 
Only time I've ever been to that s**t hole was to watch Doncaster dispatch them 2-0 I think. Going back a good 9-10 years maybe, friend had a spare ticket, and thought it might be nice to head down as Donny were playing some great stuff at the time, and had Billy up top too.

Sure enough they didn't disappoint, and true to form Billy got the 2nd goal and looked to thoroughly enjoy it, as did I :)
 



Not been to Swillsborough many times. Being penned in on Leppings Lane for the ZDS Cup - that sticks in my mind for some reason.
 
1969 ,, Ian Bower sending them Down , as a young lad , who only had the Grattans catalouge corsett page , to look at in those days , it was a great feeling , although Bobby Davison came close , however not been since the home teams kept the match takings .
It was 1970. Bert was there that night.

Ah, wonderful memories, rooting through the the bra section of the catalogue when your mum was out.
 
Would that be whilst wearing your mums Bra Alco ? .
No but funnily enough now I remember putting my mates mum's bra on when scanning through hers.

She found us and wasn't too pleased. The nearest an 8 year old gets to a wank, I suppose.
 
Only been in there three times. Once to receive my Junior Star Soccer Coaching certificate (we were forced to watch a fucking dire match afterwards with Pigs vs Fulchester City or summat) second and third time was when my bro in law (a Blade) used to walk over from Dutton Road where they lived to catch the last ten when they opened the gates. Went once and they were 0-3 down, on the old stone steps open kop. Its was MAGIC. Pigs losing, loads of the unclean all swearing and cussing and streaming out into Penistone Road. "Ohhhh ... thaaa't fuckin' yoouusless!" "Fuckin' RUBBISH!" "Nahden (whoever their manager was) thar should fuckin' resign!"

I fucking hate Sheffield Wednesday.

In junior school we went on an educational trip to the sewage works. God knows where it was but when the coach went via Hillsborough on the way, all the little wendyites received a severe ribbing about coach driver's understandable confusion.

9yr olds' poo bantz. Not much has changed since. :)

We went to a function in the Dooley suite once and had a look in the exec boxes where a couple of bogies were strategically placed in the middle of the windows. Also played there in a charity game ,up against Tony Agana of all people.
