Guest Teetowl Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 I used to sit on the kop all the time. the year we got relegated, there was a bloke who used to sit at the bottom of the south kop end he looked like an indian and was awesome at pointing when the ref was wrong ( come to mention it he still pointed when he was right) I was only talking to someone the other day as to what happened to him. We always used to call him roadhouse (he was the spitting image of Sam Elliot) proper animated all the time. He once gave a pig fan a right cow tailer when he jumped up in the south stand after they scored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shandypants Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Go for it owl, you can only count realist, big guns and Fedor as one catch , for obvious reasons. It must be an Ecclesfield thing because I hate Tango with a flipping vengeance. He does my fving head in and gets right on my boobies. Oohh look at me everybody - I've got my shirt off!!

I've known him for 25 years plus (although, he still doesn't seem to know me) and he has always been 24/7 'Wednesday'. He must think about the Owls every waking minute and then dream about them when he sleeps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Starling Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Mick from Mansfield. He can tell you every attribute about every player to play for Wednesday just simply by listening to the radio whilst looking after his 20 something kids.

leetheowl Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 So she went as a 2 year old, ok Think her memory might be playing tricks Think you may be mistaken with your maths here mate. I said 'in her eighties'....I think she's probably about 86 or 87 which would make her 9 or 10 when she saw the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vontemp Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 (edited) Frank from Swinton, can be seen at every game home and away, and thats how its been for decades. Old Frank, he's about 4 foot tall, like a Wednesday version of Ronnie Corbett. Edited March 20, 2013 by vontemp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanharper Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Has anybody got a photo of this Frank? I've been to a few hundred away games but can't place him. I know one little old fella who I regularly see at away games but not sure if it's him or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know one little old fella who I regularly see at away games but not sure if it's him or not. He's reight short wi glasses, looks like moleman from simpsons. Goes to every game, even abroad pre season. He's 73 i think, n been going since he were a kid. He's a regular in my local. He even bollocked his daughters for getting married on saturdays. Only 3 matches he's missed in decades were their weddings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have given him a lift home from a few far flung grounds to save him spending hours on the train, top man. Gave him a lift home the other week, 1 on his own is Frank The fact not many people know of him says it all, he goes to support Wednesday not to be famous There's a few from the Dearne area that have paid their Wednesday dues over the years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Grandad missed his nieces wedding because we had a home reserve game (in the days we played reserve games on Saturdays) He always defended himself when asked by shrugging and saying "I went to the night do" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
