Hi all,
I've been reading this site for a while (find it better than BladesMad) and I think most of the old posters from the now defunct message board from sufc.co.uk are on here.
Anyway, I'm a Blade living in Gloucester after being brought up in Nottingham (M1 J27 side)
After years of 'playing on Saturdays' and not really supporting a team I was invited to watch United in a cup replay against Arsenal (1996 - 1-0 Carl Veart) and said that night that this is where I want to watch my football.
Little did I know what I was letting myself in for.
Despite continuing to play I was able to get to a few matches from my home in Nottingham, most notably the 2002/03 season when we had so many midweek matches.
A knee injury cut short my football just in time for our Premiership season, so I had my first Blades season ticket which I renewed for the Robson era!
Fatherhood and moving further south has curtailed my live matches, Bristol City away this season, and by quirk will be at Bristol City home on Saturday (first time at the Lane in 4 years!) - hopefully won't be going to Cheltenham away next season!!
I will try and chip in where I can.
