Did I dream it, or was there a TV cop show a bit like Police Camera Action that was filmed (outside Hillsborough) on the day we played Spurs in 1994 this was the match we lost 3-4 and Klinsmann dived as often as possible (and the 5.9 diving cards were banned). I think the show was on Sky One… or perhaps it was a different game… or did I dream it? Ta

Should have used Chat GPT (Sheff edition) “Ey up If he sells now: He triggers repayment of looans nah. The lad may owe personal guarantees, or lose stuff he’s used as security. He walks away wi a reight huge loss — quickly and publicly, nah then.” I’ll get me cooat

They only sing when they’re fishing.

Rammstein would work. Particularly if we still had Sonner. Get it?

Yes

Come on OWLS. Today is the day to be entirely f**king emphatic and absolutely eviscerate the victim, er, I mean the opponent. Please. Today, just do the right thing! You know what I mean.

Yes

There were some dodgy shops in Woodseats back in the 1970s. Rounds newsagents contained nothing except the eponymous newsagent (who was quite a nice man, but looked like the butler from the Addams family) and some lucky dip bags. Also there was a cobbler near to Cobnar Road who was so traumatised that his shop window was just a load of dusty leather belts and shoes thrown in a heap. I loved Woodseats, but the Owls (although proud and loud) were always in the minority. It was quite good natured banter back in the 80s, but then again you usually had mates and family members who were Blades.

Is he a better striker than Borner? You see where I’m going with this...?

Me too. It was a matter of honour. Lars Bohinen was getting cheered by Wednesday supporters in that game (ironically, but even so).

Yes, he was very good, so they’ve booked him for next time he’s suspended. Can’t wait, he’s a natural.

The only reason you play that poorly is that you don’t like your gaffer. They’re not playing for Woodgate... or maybe Gibson.

Shreeves was assistant to Pleat, but lived in Bradway so may have stayed local.

Welcome back. While you were away we went back to the top of the Champ, which is where we will stay after today when we beat Millwall 0-3 with goals from Luongo, Bannan and Fletcher. Hurrah.

After 1989 the police authority spent a lot of time recruiting from outside the local area. They were unhappy with the promotion of internal candidates as there was a kind of list of seniority. Most of the blokes on the list were local, either Wednesday (like Mole and Nesbit) or Blades (like Broomhead) and also (ahem) Masons. After 1990 more senior people came from outside Sheffield and this probably hasn’t ceased. So I doubt it’s Blades causing the problem, it’s non-Sheffield promotion chasers.
