Who recognises any Blades in this photo?

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

This was taken in The Earls of Arundel I believe, many years ago by me.

Who recognises any of these Blades fans?

Also, can you remember what their SUISA/Viewpoints/Blades United handles were?

Greenwich Attila and Son Of Cartman.Lepps?

Greenwich Attila and Son Of Cartman.Lepps?

Lepps of course. What was her handle in full? I seem to remember she developed MS if I'm not mistaken.

Which do you think is SOC?

[BigBed]

The guy in the background is Dean Hammond, looks like hes not changed, always hanging around where he isn't wanted.

 

[Wapping Blade]

From L to R: Musical, Greenwich Blade, Radio_Blade, Camden, Lepps, Atilla, Shiny.

 

[BornOnShorehamStreet]

Camden was the only one I couldn't remember.

Camden was the only one I couldn't remember.

He's still in trap 2 with the cleaning lady (old LBs running jokes)

That's Atilla or Ian Longley as you will know him

 

[alcoblade]

That's Atilla or Ian Longley as you will know him

Where's he these days, doesn't post on here does he?

Same for Son of Cartman?

UTB

 

[Foxy]

Still at uni, think he's got an account but doesn't post.

 

[Trigger Blade]

Second from left is Craig Cash

The likeness is uncanny

Is that Jim Phipps in the yello shirt?

Definitely Shiny Blade, who used to post in industrial quantities about all manner of obscure subjects like Tuvan throat singing then just disappeared. I think he found an internet bride and emigrated to America.

It's a reminder of how time flies, that must have been in the last millenium

 

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Man in yellow is Vlad Ilyich Lenin who's been hitting the goulash a bit too much.

Extreme left is the only Blade to be born with two heads.

 

[Keen Blade]

Extreme left is the only Blade to be born with two heads.

Compare and contrast with Sir Kevin McIncapable who was born with 2 faces , one staring into each of his deep pockets.

 

[Billyblade]

I recognise the bloke second from right. Knew him as "Ian"? I talked to him a lot about the Blades when our paths crossed on a night out. I seem to remember him having a very loud voice at the game
Bloke in the middle with glasses is Statto from fantasy football

 

[pommpey]

Shiny, with his trademark yellow shirt.

Greenwich (or as he was then 'The Cat') is still with us, not seen owt of Camden or Lepps and Musical emigrated to NZ a few years ago (after marrying Glasgow Blade), but is still a Bladesman.

Many of them in that pic were in the infamous QPR pub rumble in the days of 'Santos!'

Shiny emigrated to the US of A with his lady friend from there wot he me on t'internet. I won't divulge Soho Blade's (sight unseen) description of her.

 

[Greenwich Blade]

A blast from the past, all looking so young but not full of hope.

As for Shiny Blade, I last saw him at a pre-season friendly at Exeter prior to the 2001/2002 season. I was heading back to Sheffield for my dad's 70th birthday party the next day so as Shiny was driving to Darkest Gloucestershire he gave me a lift in his open-top sporty-job up the M5.

He dropped me at a Service Station near Bristol and as the weather was so nice I kipped under the stars that night.

And I never saw Shiny again. He was responsible for coming up with the title "Fever Hitch".
