Old Photos For No Reason Whatsoever

Apologies for the misuse of the thread, it’s not an old photo, but I’d be willing to bet that a piece of engineering like that has been in place a long time.

A few months ago I saw a video of someone exploring the tunnels under the station. Whenever I go through I always wonder at what's beneath our feet.

Coincidentally, I went on a guided tour in these tunnels last weekend, organised by the Sheaf and Porter river trust.
It certainly was a cracking couple of hours, splashing, stooping, stumbling and for short way, crawling along these tunnels.
Although not quite as spectacular as some of the staged and back-lit photos which you may elsewhere see would lead you to believe, they are still very impressive.
I know this season's tours were a very fast sell out but would recommend them to anyone with who still may have a modicum of mobility. If you can manage the BL upper tier steps, the scrum for a half time cuppa or wazz, and still can bother to pick up that 20p you've dropped , then you are fit enough .
Details for any future guided tours will be here I guess....

Woody Welcoming Steve McKee and Peter Dornan from Linfield in Nov 1976, Dornan returned to Linfield a few weeks later

Peter Dornan was going to be The Next Tony Currie, and Steve McKee always looked tricky - I used to think he deserved a bigger chance.

I remember watching McKee in a reserves match and it seemed that blood came out of his nose. I asked a schoolmate who is a Linfield fan about it and he said it was the same when he was playing for Linfield

I saw this lot turn up at Triple Point yesterday before kick-off, and they arrived back afterwards looking a lot happier than we were.

I was distracted half-way through this post, talking to my sister about the tunnels of Sheffield and the Porter, hence the strange way my original post ended (now edited).

So he genuinely got a nosebleed? I wonder if that was when he got back in defence, or when he found himself in the opposition's box?
