FA Cup replays to be scrapped from the first round onwards in 2024-25 - BBC Sport As per article. All rounds of the FA Cup from the 1st round proper will now go straight to extra-time and pens on the first match. All rounds of the FA Cup will also now be played on weekends.

They're probably all dead, it was built nearly 60 years ago.

Yes - there's a reason the Tinsley Cooling Towers aren't there anymore.

At the very least, this should have been phase 1 price until the end of the season when divisional status is confirmed. If we go down, freeze them, if we stay up, maybe increase with plenty of notice. But expecting me to part with £570 at the end of January and with no notice, plus only giving me a week to do it before they shoot up, is something I can't justify. Not financing it either as I'm still paying off this season's until April. It'll be membership and pick 'n choosing matches for me next season. Probably no away games either. #ChansiriOut

Would be very interesting to see what the criteria for being eligible for service would be in a hypothetical situation where we had to bring in conscription in this day and age.

I think we'd attract more concerts to the Arena if we started gibbeting people in Attercliffe again.

We still get Christmas cards addressed to two of our previous owners - we moved here 17 years ago.

Certainly Neepsend that side of the Don, Kelham Island is the trendy buzzword which has devoured all the areas around it.

Was it the Broughton on the corner of Broughton Lane and Attercliffe Common? t13970.jpg (600×390) (picturesheffield.com)

Reopening of the Don Valley Line would coincide perfectly with the reopening of the Barrow Hill Line, as after Darnall trains can easily continue straight on into a reopened Victoria or branch south at Nunnery into the existing Midland. Reopening of the stations at Neepsend is Wadsley Bridge is surely feasible. Oughtibridge and Deepcar might need a bit of consideration as the original station sites have long been private dwellings, and to be fair the Deepcar station site is quite a way out of the village centre. Stocksbridge would benefit from a terminus station somewhere along the existing line to the steelworks, perhaps adjacent to the Fox Valley Shopping Park, bang in the middle of the town. Personally, living in Killamarsh, it would become the quickest way for me to get to town (15 mins?) or Hillsborough (25 mins?).

You're not meant to complain when you get a freebie lol.

I do not condone the personal attacks on his family, or any personal abuse. But all he is doing now is starving the club of cash until we adhere to his policies. Making out he is the victim and blackmailing the fans. In retrospect, he should have sold up in 2017 when his 2 year plan to reach the prem failed. His plans might have worked fine had we gone up and stayed up. They're obviously not working down where we are. Since then it has been embargo, relegation, fines and point deductions.

I don't really remember as at the time I was only 5 and 9 months but I would have been in school, having just started second year of infants (Year 1). My dad tells me he was in Argos on Angel Street and my mum was at work. The date only became vivid for me two years later when my brother was born, and for the first few years my memories of his birthdays are just TV channels playing documentaries and relocations of 9/11.

The last official day was Wednesday but they were still open yesterday selling stock off.

This photo from 1984 shows it still open as a pub. Later became the Riverside Court Hotel and is now a series of apartments upstairs and small businesses downstairs Print details Picture Sheffield

It depends on if you just count the Wicker itself, or the continuations of the Wicker route and its offshoots. On the Wicker itself there would have been 7 -: The Station The Viaduct The Bull & Oak The Brown Cow The New White Lion The Big Gun The Lion But then on Savile Street just after the arches there was the Hole in the Wall. On Nursery Street just just round the corner there was the Hare and Hounds. Then on Waingate just after the bridge there was the Lady's bridge and Bull and Mouth. Just on the side streets was the Harlequin (old) and then the Manchester Hotel (present day Harlequin). Then Harlequin now is the only pub I'd consider within the Wicker "area" - i.e. anything between the River Don and the railway arches, though most today would see it as the very far end stretches of Neepsend and Kelham.

Absolutely tragic. We were in there on Sunday for the final "big" session. It's me who runs the From Sheffield With Pubs Facebook page which is mentioned in that article. Have to start going up to the Harlequin more from now on!

Probably deliver leaflets and take contactless payments.

I'll happily take a point a piece from the next two games. having said that for the £47 we'll be paying for a Leeds ticket I'd like to see a 10 or 12 goal thriller.

Is it on telly? 📺

Buy a crate and have a can outside every building which used to be a pub 😁 The Wicker only has one pub now, and has done for the best part of the last 20 years, the Big Gun (even that has closure rumours circulating). Nearest other pubs are the Harlequin at the top of Nursery Street, the Dorothy Pax on Victoria Quays or the Norfolk Arms at the bottom of Dixon Lane. While on the subject of Attercliffe and Darnall, as far as I understand it there is -: Attercliffe = Carlton, Don Valley Hotel, Library by Lounge, St Mars of the Desert brewery. Darnall = Terminus, Horti Club, White Rose, Half Moon, 3 Feathers.

Can we have one last go on the slides?

My thoughts entirely - blooming amateurs 😅

The rule is away fans can't be charged more than what home fans pay for the same view. For example at Hillsborough, away fans can't be charged more on Leppings Lane than home fans are on the Kop as its the same view from behind the goal. So at Leeds yes, the rest of the stand is charged at £47 so away fans can and will also be charged £47.
