Little known fact that Man U wanted TC to replace Bobby Charlton, TC told me that

They did. It was in the papers

A load of down and outs going into Sheaf Market. Could have been yesterday. Here's famous one of a Blade in a pig shirt wearing a pig's head in the South Stand for the (2003?) derby.



And here - on 21/4/93 - was when we lit up the sty like the San Siro. 1-1 (Deane).

Anyone any idea where this was? I've an idea it was Paradise Square, but it doesn't look at all familiar.

According to the interweb thing.....


"...No 18, Paradise Square ( former Hebblethwaite's Academy)...."

Edit: Also found this "....Middle Class School for Boys and Girls. For more information, see 'The Story of Paradise Square', by Alan Hall and Alice Walton, Cat. No. 942.74S...."

To be fair, if it's the Wednesday v Oxford game in 1975 you can understand why it would be "sparsely populated" given that it was towards the end of a relegation season where they didn't so much go out with a bang as a whimper. Their exact sorry record from the turn of the year was as follows:

Man Utd away 0-2
Portsmouth home 0-2
York away 0-3
Blackpool home 0-0
Notts County home 0-1
Fulham away 1-2
WBA away 0-4
Orient home 0-1
Cardiff away 0-0
Millwall home 0-1
Southampton home 0-1
Notts Forest away 0-1
Norwich home 0-1
Bristol City away 0-1
Oxford home 1-1
Aston Villa home 0-4
Hull away 0-1

Actually, those poor sods huddled on that roofless Kop were in for a rare treat: a Wednesday goal - their second, no less, in fifteen games.

the shittiest return ever after xmas by any sheffield club 3 points out of 51

It looks like a Morris to me, but could be an Avenger or even a Cortina.

No, I thought the lights and grill looked wrong for a cortina but there might have been a model I don't remember.
