A battered old transit used to come and unload a few of those old equally battered hot dog stands. They were filthy. Scruffy blokes with a dirty white coat on used to come to push them around . Always had a fag on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sheriwozgod 3,462 Posted April 13 (edited) Remember the old guy selling The Star who used to sit behind the goal , Kop end in his white smock. When Wednesday scored he used to throw his flat cap in the air and catch it about half a dozen times accompanied by a thunderous Raaaaaaay from the Kop every time he caught it.

Blatter 2,392 Posted April 13 My Dad taking me to the players entrance behind the South Stand. Giving my autograph book to the commission-ere. Then getting it back ten minutes later signed by Springett Johnson Curtis McAnearny Swan Kay Finney Fantham Shiner Froggat and Wilkinson. Plus a few names I’d never heard of at the time. Young Gibson O’Donnel and Quinn. Treasured it for years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
