OWL1969 Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Didn't go but can remember it vividly, my Dad went and as he and my mom had split up 5 years previously, he normally had us Boxing day. He wanted to take me but my mom convinced him there would be too much bother. Remember sitting at home as a 10 year old with all the family round, doing Christmas things as kids do but still looking out for the result. (It was the 1st Derby game in my living memory). About 10 minutes from the end look north or Calendar come on and inform us the latest score from Hillsborough is Wednesday 1 United 0. (Scores were still well behind time then) I jump round the house like some demented monkey, mom tells me to calm down its not finished yet. What seemed like hours later, but probably only about 15 minutes, I hear Wednesday have won but not the 1-0 I thought but 4-0. Best Christmas ever, but remember wanting to go back to school asap to give it to the few Blades there. Still wish my old man (Rip) had taken me though.

sibon Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I was on the North, with my mate, his Dad and his uncle. All of them Blades. They gave me a lift in from Anston. It was a very quiet journey back home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashleydavid Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 What a great day and Xmas, lived at Malin Bridge. Worked at Woodhouse & Rixson, MD was David Hall, a blunt, he had my spare ticket ( sorry, should never had done it ) any way his face at 4.0 was a picture. Went to the BEEHIVE at the top of Wadsley Lane after, great afternoon and then Boxing Night in town, bloody brilliant, Wednesday celebrating everywhere. BIG thanks to Bridget Kelly, Julie Butcher, Sally, Jill, Malcolm Frost, Andy Mauger for the best ever. WAWAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelowl Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 thing is you lads not old enough to know the blunts were said to only have to turn up to paste us with sabella (who?) etc we fecking murdered them in every part of the pitch it's a lesson for sunday these occasions are about who turns up on the pitch not the teamsheet and that means the fans too anyone who leaves with their voice intact wants a slap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justbeanz Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 I was there. If memory serves there were no buses after the game so it was a walk back to Wincobank after. Enjoyed every minute of that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
