Sean Bean.

He gave me a lift to the match a few times and his Mum used to work with my Dad 😊
 
Wonder which one on that list is the biggest/ truest Blade?

I know Paul Heaton used to attend plenty of matches, including away matches in the 80’s.

Where as some one like Michael Palin only went to the Lane when he was a young boy and he’s admitted he’s a Sheffielder first and a Blade second, so he likes to see both Sheffield clubs doing well.
 
Probably by far the 2 most well known Blades worldwide, given the global reach of the Prem and the Manchester clubs, aren't in the initial poll - Kyle Walker and Harry Maguire. Household names to countless millions of Asian and African teenage Premier League fanatics. (someone has probably pointed this out but I can't be bothered to read back through the thread).
 
Mick Foley when he was trying to cash in (successfully) on a random Billy Sharp celebration he did on a dare

Wasn't it that Sharp did the celebration because Foley was doing an evening talk at Bramall Lane? Not that Sharp did the celebration randomly and Foley decided to turn up.
 

Had the pleasure of meeting Mr foley today, got him to sign my blades shirt.

Had a quick chat about his time at the lane, which he said he throughly enjoyed. He did express his disappointment that Billy Sharp no longer plays for us though :D

The Beast isnt a Blade... once saw him in morrisons car park at Bramley..

'Excuse me mr Beast, can i ask you a question?'

Bastard rolled his eyes at me like hes been asked it a couple of times before.

'Its not a general knowledge question.... wind thee neck in........how come you ended up supporting the Blades then?'

'I dont... the company i work for has some sponsorship thing with them so i just go for the free food'

And off he shuffled into the shop

Next time you see him, ask if he'd rather have pork chops for hands, or steak for feet.
 
I've got a book by Jarvis Cocker which features a photo of him "proudly showing off" the Sheffield Wednesday shirt he'd just been given for his 6th birthday (1969). There's no other mention of interest in them at all though after that. He does also say that the first song he learnt on the guitar was Annie's Song :)
Joe Cocker was definitely a blade though, so should be on the list.
