'I played for both' ⚽️ Ipswich v Blades

[Gin&Juice]

It was Nick Henry who was sent off. Spackman signed Bobby Ford.

Bobby Fucking Ford. The beginning of the end. Gone from whatever the midfield was to Ford and Ian Hamilton.

Nick Henry. Another waste of money. Remember him being unveiled the same day the club introduced us to Captain Blade. Henry was on our books for years and i’m pretty sure he only played for us under Kendall for about 3 months and just sat in the reserves.

Didn’t he get sent off three times in about a dozen games? Can’t remember if he was actually any good though.

Captain Blade was clearly the bigger success

Mick Hill

He was the one i thought of. An undervalued player. He only played 37 times for us but had the weight of the world on his shoulders when he had to fill Mick Jones shoes. Notable for scoring the winner against Weeds and the equaliser at S6 in a Sheffield Derby.

What a night that was .....I do remember some trouble outside train station after game ...
We drew 2-2 think we had 10 men ( Bobby ford ) sent off ,I think
Went through on away goals ....One of my favourite ever away games .

I remember my dad telling me a story about this game. It was bad tempered, we'd had a bit of history with Ipswich, and was a bit sketchy leaving the ground. They got to the car, drove off with no real issues, but then another car pulled up alongside them at the lights. Black, tinted windows, looked a bit menacing. The window wound down.. And Sean Bean popped his head out shouting WE ARE BLADES, WE ARE BLADES, OH WE ARE WE ARE BLADES then drove off!

My dad said our fans sang "You have signed the wrong Mick" at the Leeds fans
