Billy Casper

Totally 100% agree Gazza! My favourite manager of them all. So he was only in his early 40's when he took us over...He looked old even back then!

I quite like Rotherham, always have. Nothing offensive about them, apart from it seems the majority of their fans hating Wednesday Anyway, the distasteful Steve Evans is a thorn in their side, and whether they stay up or go down, hopefully that lump of a man will be removed from his job. Thinking on, where did he come from anyway? Who is he?

I very rarely listen to P&G but did for a while before the presenter (Rob Staton is it?) said he didn't like callers ringing in calling for the manager to be sacked etc etc. So as the opening post says, unless you agree with their opinion it doesn't gain favour with the presenter. State run radio! Also, something that has always annoyed me on P&G. Someone will ring in saying this player played well, that player had a nightmare, then they'll ask them if they've been to the game...comes back the answer "No, i listened to it on't radio!" Well, sorry, but unless you've actually SEEN the game, you can't really have a valid view of what happened. Afterall, you wouldn't critique a restaurant if you hadn't eaten there!

Well, my Dad said that he thinks he could still get a game at 76 after watching that! 5 home wins and 15 home goals is a travesty of a season at Hillsborough. No pulling punches with me as you know...it was utter garbage and i'm hoping the majority of that squad never pull on a blue and white shirt ever again! Oh, and season ticket prices jumped through the roof now too, i wonder how much match day tickets will be?

Cheers mate! Here's hoping!

Looking forward to the match Saturday. Always do but this Saturday my old fella will be with me again. He's been a Wednesdayite since his first game back in the 40's. He was a talented right back himself and signed as an apprentice in the late 50's but never made it as a full time pro as he was battling with the likes of Peter Johnson and Don Megson at the time (I dare say he'd have got a game or two these days lol). He took me to my first game in 1975, he's travelled all over but the older he gets, the less mobile, and winter games are a no-no lol. He's struggled with his knees these past couple of years but recent surgery has given him a new lease of life and he will take up his rightful place on the Kop once again tomorrow! The one thing you never lose at any age is that passion for your club, whatever division, however good or bad things are, a good or bad result can either make or break your week. What you do learn is to accept who you are born to support, it's in the blood, especially if you're a Sheffielder, blue or red! No trophy hunters around these parts! UTO!

Absolutely agree with you regarding Glenn Roeder!

Ya got that right! Grumpy!!! Just having one of my rare visits here these days and wanted to say that you are well thought of on both sides of the blue and red of this site. Keep going fella, when your lot get promoted things will be much more fun on here next season! Take it easy! BC x

I remember it well! I also remember Man City centre half Michael Vonk saying Hirsty was the best centre forward he'd ever played against

Well done CB! Here's to next season when we can really get back to proper sparring in the same division!

Hi all you lovely forummers! The forums very own Billy Casper and his band True Gold will be yet again be playing Sheffield's Genting Club & Casino on SATURDAY 16th MAY! We are celebrating 10 years together and where better than our home town. We played there last August to a packed house of which many were forum members (Inc Potlegs who danced her ass off!) If you are an 80's fan, a fan of fully live bands, and more importantly a fan of Spandau Ballet then this is the show for you! You can contact me through inbox for tickets, or book online at... http://www.wegottickets.com/event/311583 Tickets are just 12 quid! Hope to see you there BC x

The height of this section was back when Owls & Blades were vying for promotion 3 years ago. The banter then was back and forth, it was a good place to be! Since then it's gone a bit downhill, a lot of Blades who i used to give stick to, get stick from and also have some great convo's about football from both sides have gone. Bladebloke, LADYBIRDS, PaulBlade (r.i.p) all pains in that arses to me, but lads i know i could have also gone and had a good laugh with in the pub! Still some good posters on here, Potlegs, Gazza, CB, Rossy (glad to see you back mate!) Grappler, Longy etc etc... The best thing that can happen for this section is for the Blades to get promoted, that'll see some good banter coming back!

Yes i remember seeing that and wiping a tear away for not being included Joking aside, some great posters there, some sadly not with us anymore

I'm sorry, i don't recall this day at all...

All the best to you Rossy lad. A honest and genuine fella. Can you pass on my best to Pete too Gazza. BC x

I owe you one Laurie...Will miss you shaking your booty x

Big reason Casper doesn't post much these days! Anyway, how's your good self Corker lad?

Cheers fella's! I keep popping by to have a read now and again...just to keep you all in check!

All good here fella I agree, nothing can change our love for the teams that are in our blood!

You're right CB... Sad state of affairs for such a big city. You're Dad almost 80, seen no cup win. My Dad almost 77, seen one cup win. One cup win between 2 men with a combined age of 157!

Good post Potlegs...But i think you might have fried a few brains on here with the word 'expotentially' being bandied around

Thanks all! Much appreciated. Will let you know how we go on

Hi all, I have a problem regarding a website. It's a long old story but to try and put it in a nutshell... I am in a band, our now ex drummer has a brother who builds websites, he asked us if we'd like a website building by him for the band. We said yes, and a site was built. Unfortunately the lads Mum was a bit a control freak, and wanted to take over the running of the band, the poor drummer was stuck in the middle and had no option but to leave. Now, the problem lies with... We then had to have a new website built but the mother of the drummer etc being vindictive said even though her son was no longer part of the band they were going to leave their website up so that it would compromise our new site. Now, is there any way we can get their website removed? They have nothing to do with our band, it has our logo, biogs, pics, info on there, but obviously they won't reply to anyone wanting to book us. Thanks in advance, BC

Mr Garneti has recently replaced my Dads right knee. That was done at Thornbury Hospital. 7 weeks on and he's more mobile than he has been for years and the scarring is the neatest I've ever seen, Dad is 76 and doing great! Highly recommended!

Hey all! Seasons Greetings to one and all (Owls and Blades alike!) Sorry not been around much this year, but just too busy with other stuff. Special thanks to Laurie for dancing her butt off at our gig at the Genting Club in August...Will be appearing there again sometime next year so get your dancing shoes polished girl All the very best!
