Tom MacAnearny. One of my mates uncles. Was a great golfer, sadly passed away a few years ago along with his brother Jim who was also connected to the club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alfredo?? I used to sit in the directors box quite a lot and he was a regular back in the day. Not seen that taxi driver either for a while. Long trench coat, beard. Think his taxi reg is Taxi 1. Been to every game since God was a lad. Alfredo had his barbers in Chapeltown. Always pictured with Carbone or Di Canio. Shop changed about 10 years ago.

Keith, his wife & my parents were great friends after they finished playing. He actually moved back to Sheffield from the states & sadly passed away about 6 years ago. Sad to hear that...

hermanowl Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Lily Shelton, who I think was in charge of the stadium cleaners. One of the nicest ladies you could wish to meet. She featured on one of the club videos when they did features on behind the scenes aspects of the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL True fact ........ we used to run “The Dragon” from The Gate in the 80’s and 90’s and had many a run in with mr Woodhead, and I suppose authorities in general. Unbelievable times though that will remain with me forever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable times though that will remain with me forever! Same issues I guess, with ours from George and Dragon in Mosboro, same period of time. If i recall something about not leaving at same time as owls coaches and not travelling together etc, etc giving the club a bad name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
