Shutty is defo a Blade, remember talking to him and his dad in the Cross Keys in the early '90s, confirmed he was a Blade but never liked to shout about it when he was at the sty for obvious reasons.

Dont think he supported anyone. I know many good footballers who dont support any club

Fraser Digby another Sheffield keeper. No idea who he supported though.

Simon Mills
Charlie Williamson
Roger Wylde

Impressed if Steve Heighway is a Blade. Loved him in that great Liverpool side in the 70's.

Lived in Sheffield in late 1950s and early 1960s. Went to Ecclesall Juniors and then High Storrs

Cristiano Ronaldo. Met him in Portugal at a VIP event when Robson was in charge. Kept calling him a cunt and saying he was sick of his boring interviews. Sometimes goes in the railway too.

Calls himself Chris Ronaldson though, doesn't like to draw attention to himself that one....

Heard he preferred teams of the porcine persuasion but not 100% sure.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Cristiano Ronaldo is actually good friends with Jose Semedo so he'd probably side with Wednesday.

Oh ffs

 

[Superblades]

Cristiano Ronaldo is actually good friends with Jose Semedo so he'd probably side with Wednesday.

He's promised Semedo to play his last season with him in a few years as they grew up together from the age of 10 or something.

Banks was from Tinsley. I read his autobiography, he didn't seem to support any team as such but picked matches at United, Wednesday and Rotherham depending on opposition.

Am I right that he mentioned that was an admirer of Ted Burgin and Dave McIntosh (Wendy's keeper)? Or was that Bob Wilson who lived in Chesterfield?

 

[CarlingBlade]

Paul Heald, gk ended up playing against us for the pigs but was a blade.

 

[TonyAgana]

He's promised Semedo to play his last season with him in a few years as they grew up together from the age of 10 or something.

Pretty sure that's the only reason they've extended Semedo's contract.

 

[BusheyBlade]

Nah, definitely a Blade. Why else do you think he hoofed that chance under the bar from virtually on the goal line? He just couldn't bring himself to score against United at BDTBL. You'll notice he hasn't even been close to scoring there since...eh...no you know why!!!

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Fraser Digby?

 

[Droppingwell]

I read it sometime ago so cant remember to be honest. I just remember him saying he would catch the bus to the matches from Tinsley. Got the impression the guy just loved football rather than any team.

 

[Silent Blade]

Fraser Digby?

Fraser was a Blade.

 

[Booker4]

Born and bred Wednesdayite,

I was gonna say, who's ever thought that fat pig supported us?! I know someone who knows him and he's definitely a Wendy, despite being from the Maonr.

Micky Adams obviously and Steve Parkin the ex Barnsley manager supports us.

 

[SouthEssexBlade]

Ha, missed all that!

What about Andy 'Bruno' Morris of Chesterfield fame. He was a Sheffield lad, but no idea who he supported.

A nice rumour to get going, the pigs will believe it

 

[Jonboy60]

David Herbert pig centre forward was a blade, same time as Steve ludlam joined us on schoolboy terms, who was a pig supporter.
Both came from Carter lodge school hackenthorpe, where I also went, albeit a bit younger than me.
