  1. Isn't there more to life than if, or if not there's a Burger King on Fargate? Like Fargate itself?
  2. Perhaps by the point but Sheffield is/was the only UK city that never had a remand prison. Holding Cells don't count.
  3. Did Neil Warnock go there, as he was a Frecheville kid then?
  4. Like Leicester, (who's county it is in), or Bury, Stockport, Oldham and Heckmondwike?
  5. Did part of the store go around the corner to the Moor? (and thank you).
  6. Lots of posts on SF relating to above but did anyone have the unfortunate experience of having their coach break down on the way there, depriving the kids of a day at the seaside or maybe half a day if bus repaired or replaced in the middle-of say--remote Lincolnshire?
  7. Why do Castlegate shops keep getting mentioned- there was never any shops on there ( only bus stops) except a betting shop next to the old Bull & Mouth pub. Perhaps what's meant is the triangle of Castlegate. Waingate and Exchange Street?
  8. Chelsea were two-nil up in that game.
  9. I think former football manager and Shiregreen born lad Jim Smith was a Firth Park pupil around mid- 1950s, mentioned the magazine in his biography.
  10. Off the immediate subject but wasn't there a Don Inn in the Newhall Road area?
  11. I believe the Mambo had downstairs premises, if so, from which side was access, Cambridge Arcade or Union Street? Sheffield United Tours had a booking office on the arcade, near bottom left going down from Pinstone Street.
  12. Wasn't Barrowboy near the bottom of Dixon Lane or am I confusing myself?
  13. Thank you Staninoodle. 23 points? That looks like being a Herculean achievement for a team not a million miles away from Miller town.
  14. Perhaps Hilda had a 'Big Girl's Blouse'?
  15. Then don't tread on your roof slates either!
  16. Yes -and with respect to you -it was Cuttsie, at the bottom of Cambridge Arcade (the other end from Barney Goodman's). In the late 1950s I was only eleven, so not really a a Mambo wannabe!
  17. I know it's early but who has the record(s) for the least points in the Championship or the old second division, which was only two points for a win then?
  18. And then there's Plymouth, who are just above Watford, where the Owl's go to in a mid-week long away trip but then it's the Miller's at home.
  19. You're right Irene , perhaps a stroll around the old Castle Market could have induced the same experience ?
  20. You could actually 'book' seats? Hillsborough Kinema wasn't the London Paliadium.
