Who was your Sheffield Wednesday childhood HERO ?


Recommended Posts

Has to be RonSpringett for me too. I was at a derby match with my dad and I remember him leaning over to me to say - the two best goalies in England are on the pitch today (Hodgkinson was in goal for the Blades) but we've got the best one.

Runner-up: Colin Dobson. I was lucky enough to be at the Fairs Cup game v Barcelona and there was a long stoppage in the play for an injury. Dobson had the ball and started to play 'keepy-uppy' using every part of his body! Unbelievable, and he got a huge round of applause from all sides of the ground after such a magic display ( NB Way before we'd seen anything like it on Youtube!)

He's been awarded one retrospectively about a couple of years ago - so he does now own one, quite rightly!
