Dont patronise me. 1 I am dyslexic and 2 I do not support either 'pig' team! So dont make assumptions. I will in the meantime get you the book names if you so wish. My original quote is from an extract from a document from the Sheffield Local History Society, which can be viewed at Sheffield's Central Library. Thank you

There is also a map from 1853 in 3 hillsborough books which shows swine cottage and the pig farms. Oh well 'youn man' as the saying goes 'ya cant educate pork' lol

Shefield archives have the ordinace survery maps, in 2003 we all went from universiy when we were doing geography and local structure history. thanks

WRONG. It was a pig farmning area. "The Wednesday football club was formed on 4th September 1867. The football club first played its games at the Olive Grove Sports Ground in Heeley before moving to a new stadium in the Owlerton district of Sheffield. The first Ordnance Survey maps (1850's) mark a building where the stadium now stands as "swine cottage". They also show another farm on Penistone Road, south of where the North Stand is situated, which was also believed to be a large piggery. Pork farming is thought to have been practised in the localised area since the early 1800's, and did not cease until around 1900 when the city's rapid expansion put an end to livestock production in the area. At its height the "Owlerton Piggery," as it was known, provided work for some 50 employees. Initial discussions about a nickname began soon after the Wednesday arrived at Owlerton. In reference to their new home, most club officials were in favour of "The Owls." However, another suggestion was also popular. In view of the area's strong tradition of pork farming, a popular grass-roots alternative was "The Pigs." Although the name "Owls" prevailed, many working class supporters continued to refer to their team as "t'pigs." A popular song of the time "They may be t'Owls to some, (but they'll always be pigs to me)" was performed in music halls across South Yorkshire. As late as the 1920's, fans used to welcome their team onto the field with the characteristic grunting sound we still associate with the club. This peculiarity was once referred to by BBC commentator Edward Milburn, who famously described Hillsborough as a "sea of grunts" moments after The Wednesday won the First Division title in 1932. Aye thank you

Hello, I noticed a carpet shop in hillsborough today. Near sette coli's and a car garage. Anyone know what its like? I need a carpet urgently but dont want to wait days n days for fitting! thanks

This is my opinion, Im not saying anyone else who has an opinion is wrong either, but here is what i think: Obama is like the 'god' to black people. since he became president black people think they have all the power and have big chips on their shoulders. Never known so much fuss over a president. like i said just my opinion.

Do the wednesayites actually realise in years gone by the term 'pigs' which both teams actually now call eachother originated from the 1800's when the sheffield wednesday ground used to be a pig farm. Thats why it funny when wednesday call united pigs, they dont actually know why they are saying it.

Im 27 and I have a bottle of sherry in my cupboard. I like it if I feel ill or cold as it feels warm and smooth. I first had it when I was 14 on a family holiday which was all inclusve, but I didnt like anything on the list like wine or beer so i tried sherry and liked it.

Staffies shouldnt be bred from at the moment due to the amount of them. However, accidents happen to us all at some point. So your doing the right thing now which is making sure you are providing the best possible care
