Oink oink

Thankyou very much for Billy Whitehurst?

 

Apart from them singing
We want Allams In. Which was funny.
They were quiet
The Silence of the Pigs

 

Talking to a Blunts fan not so long ago, on about how the atmosphere is not so good nowadays. He said Bramall Lane, except on odd occasions was crap. Wednesday when they had a Kop without a roof was deafening. Now it is pretty poor there as well. Sign of the times.
Watching on TV the crowd close ups showed a far different demographic than used to be the case with Blunts away followings.

 

Maybe because the one you remember are 40 years and more older these days, as we are.

 

Yes, but no raucous younger ones taking their place, unlike some clubs.

 

Its the same everywhere Buck.

 

Indeed. We sold them Whitehurst for around 40k - as far as I recall - during the season when Bassett took them up..

 

Yes, it was me reading it wrong way round. Only excuse is I have an abcess and am not concentrating.

 

I was sure Whitehurst had a Sheff Utd connection but first purchase was Mexborough wasn't it.

 

Ha. No you're reading that the wrong way 'round - you were right in the first place.

 

He played for the pigs after he left us for the second time .

 

Oinkers very cocky before the game, scornful of City and the fans.

Lo and behold, a few whistles and sponge balls and the tone has changed.

From mirth to whingeing resentment.

With such thin-skinned bipolar fans, it's no wonder they were blubbing down Wembley Way in 2014.
