Thoughts will turn to a new season with new players and new teams to play. Here’s to another summer, a summer that will be packed with sporting events . I’ll watch the Euros, the Olympics , Tour de France and Wimbledon with interest. Come August my enthusiasm for the beautiful game of football and Sheffield United will be back as strong as ever, after all what else am I going to do on a Saturday afternoon?

Why do you go? Why do you go ? They ask, the ones that don't understand ! I say it's in my blood I have been going with my Dad,Grandad , Uncle from the age of 5! I have only missed 9 times since 1976 .But they say you keep being disappointed ! They don't understand & I realised a long time ago they never will , the thrill the buzz the feeling of being one , the pride of wearing my teams colours, we have our ups & downs but I know & I tell tell the ones that ask why I will go to my dying day because I am a Blade
