On what would have been his 87th birthday. He gave us pride, passion and left us with unforgettable memories especially in that wonderful 1979/80 promotion season #BDM

We need a bit of this spirit on Monday night ! "A lovely way to go back" Promotion on this day in 1991- #******** What times ! You Tube :

It's easy to recognise his - he's got his name tattooed on the inside of his lip!

What a fantastic day ! #MindTheGap

Back where we belong.

A magical night.

20th April 1822 ! Cheers

1820 - founded as the Comercial Club, Sheffield. 1822 - reference meeting very Wednesday afternoon at Darnall 1823 The Commerical Cricket Club - Still at Darnall by 1826 referred to as the "Wedneday Commerical Cricket Club" 1828 by 1829 "Wednesday's Cricket Club"

He clearly didn't share the secret with Boothy !

On this day 25 years ago Wednesday went 5 points clear at the top of the Premier League after a 2-1 victory vs Leicester at Hillsborough. Teenage whizz-kid Ritchie Humphreys displayed "precision, accuracy & absolute arrogance" to score a wonder goal, his 3rd in 4 games. Those were the days ! You Tube :

If you build it they will come - Happy 122nd Birthday to the wonderful old Wednesday Ground opened on this day in 1899. Chesterfield were they very first visitors on that day and it was one of their players, Herbert Munday who scored the first goal on the hallowed turf. Wednesday went on to win that day 5-1 with goals from Harry Millar 2 , Archie Brash, Bob Ferrier and the legend Fred Spiksley.

Officially opened on this day 60 years ago by Stanley Rous before a game vs Bolton. The words of Simon Inglis say it all.

It started so well ! One of his best !
