French student, I have been received for a week in 1974 and 1975 in a family who was the best friend of a man named Mr HARRIS. This man whas very closed to Sheffield United football club, going many times in other towns locking during match for new players. So I think he can be John Harris, several years manager of this Club before.
Wanting to have news of Mr Harris and his friend family, could you say me if he is still alive, or give me informations about somebody who could tell me the adress he had in Sheffield in 1975 and after (I remember he had changed for a new home this year). With this adress may be I could join this family which name was Thorpe.

John Harris was SUFC manager in the 60.s and early 70,s was always known to be a gentleman,thats when united were a decent team, with players like , len badger,alan woodward , tony currie, ted hemsley, david munks,eddie colquohan, david powell, the list goes on and on. If i remember rightly John Harris would have been the captain of chelsea when they last won the league in 1955.

Best thing to do is contact Sheffield United direct they may be able to help you.
