Is this us? Big Stan on the right?

Yes it is. Tom Heffernan on the left with the 'tache and possibly Joe Bolton behind Big Stan. Could be the League Cup game v Everton in 1983/84/85?

Yes, to all three players. I think the Everton player is Derek Mountfield scoring Everton's 2nd in the 2-2 draw in the 1984/85 League Cup

1st half of the 5-0 defeat to Arsenal. Half time score was 0-2. Alan Ball sat on the ball in the 2nd half when they were leading 5-0.

Think Everton no.8 with back to camera could possibly be one of our worst managers of all time? Not 100% though.

Found these early 80s gems while sorting a load of old photos. The John St shot was taken the day after the Walsall debacle. Hard to believe Hillsborough still has this outdated corrugated construction.

Black tricians tape around arm? Nice touch.

Would you be able to find a photo of a Blade fan with blood pouring from his head after being hit by a brick during the Blades v Man U match in October 1967? I saw the photo in the early 1980s when I was looking through some of the late 1960s football annuals that belonged to a friend of mine.

I’m not certain Peter but I think the photo was in one of those souvenir papers from The Sheffield Telegraph or The Star. It was one of the Heeley Green lads, who I’ll not name on here.

It was white elastic out of my mum’s sewing box blackened with a felt tip

Does this fan still go to the Lane?

Not seen him for a while Peter, but I think he still go's now and again.

Would it have been Andy Gray or ex Blades manager, Adrian Heath, who was their No.8 in that game?

That's really made me appreciate how bizarre that building is.

Great design, shame it's so run down around there now. Could really do with a wash, and some greenery down there now, just seems so dingy.

Can't do that as it now houses council offices and if any money was spent in tarting up it would unleash a tornado of fury about Sheffield Council looking after themselves

Looks like Trevor Steven?

I have so many fuzzy memories of parts of Sheffield which I just can't place any longer. Where the hell is this?

I could get in every one of those buses for 2p. Two pence!
