Old Photos For No Reason Whatsoever

[Silent Blade]

Where is the photo taken do you think? Inside the pavilion?

Not sure, looks like Luton away game because you can see Harry Hitchen and Tommy Hoyland in their normal clothes and must have travelled with the team as reserves in case someone gets an injury. The biggest clue is Sam McNab as he didn’t make many appearances that season and this was the line up for 2 home games in October 1952 and the away match at Luton

Neither did I

Yup. Made one appearance for us (Edghill).

Can't remember him.

Was he any better than Rush?

Nah, stupid question- an inanimate carbon rod could play better than Rush in a Sheffield United shirt

I always appreciate your knowledge and help in me dating my old photo collection. Most are from my Dad’s era of watching but he’s hopless with dates.

I’ll try and post more. I also have a fair few pre-war.

Using his nose as a counterweight, to avoid another challenge.

He has to be one of the worst loans we have had, and that is a high bar.

I think I had the pleasure of watching him ''play'' for us at qpr. But I might be wrong.

You did. I was there too. I think he provided an assist for Dean Saunders
