The first player I really noticed was Mick Speight, because he had three fluorescent stripes down the sides of his boots

Bladey Blades have an inferiority complex and do plenty of cap doffing to other teams.

They also all hail diplodocus Dave - and his Neanderthal ways.

My grandad'first United match. His last was the Walsall home game which relegated us to the fourth division. I guess you can't get a greater contrast in games!

Sheffield United had the first black professional football player in the world, this was during a period United weren't managed by Nigel Clough.

We nearly had a girl for a chairman ,,

 

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Harry Haslam, after scouting the international football transfer market, would have been the first SUFC manager to sign a USSR international, Onya Bakyabic, for us. UEFA/FIFA put a block on the deal as his club were involved in supplying arms to the USSR Government (Onya was also a member of the KGB and Olympic wrestler at the time).

 

[Bladesthorpe]

Won a trip to Malta to watch the Blades in pre season friendly through the club, there were 6 of us and the mini bus didn't turn up to take us to the match so Dave McCarthy (CLUB REP ) told us to get a taxi to the game and he would settle up with us later. I paid for the taxi £48 and spent the rest of the holiday trying to get it back off him to no avail, the lying get.
