@FootballInT80s “Don’t let it bounce!”

34 years ago today: The Chelsea and Stamford Bridge of 1992 couldn’t be further away from the institution that exists now. Sheffield United’s winning goal that day belongs to a very different era too.

@HalTheBlade @LewisSwfc1 Sounds like an instruction, or some advice from a village elder maybe?

@LewisSwfc1 "never run rungs ring anyone" - LewisSwfc1 Something for all of us in there, I think you'll agree. Up there with the best quotes from many a learned scholar and philosopher.

Most overrated player ever😂 never run rungs ring anyone

Last @CentralMidsAll league game for @evosoccermain against unbeaten league leaders. 2-0 win for Pat and the young Evo lads. @AnzenGk #cleansheet #keeper

Has the increase in wiggle room taken their budget up to about £750,000 now? #aplaceinthesun

As a Yorkshireman, I’d like to distance myself from these 2 #aplaceinthesun

2 minutes in and Lucy’s already hedging her bets in pronouncing Ibiza and the Balearics by swapping every other sentence #aplaceinthesun

Hi @efl how come James Beadle and the ref are ok to be in the same colour kit? Not enough money in the game for them to have a different colour shirt, when keepers at step 7 are expected to change kit? #BIRMID

@premierleague how come Sanchez and Darren England are ok to be in the same colour kit? Not enough money in the game for them to have a different colour shirt, when keepers at step 7 are expected to change kit? #ARSCHE

“A view that money can’t buy.” 🤪 #aplaceinthesun

@Movies_analyst How did he get the personalised number plate?

In Jeepers Creepers, the actor playing the Creeper, Jonathan Breck, was kept hidden from the cast during early filming. Justin Long and Gina Philips didn’t see the monster until cameras rolled — their first terrified reactions are largely real.

@OldSheffield Not be able to see it for another couple of months then…

1/2 Ladies Bridge has 5 arches, the last one on the Wicker side housed the Wicker Tilt. Over time the river was narrowed by further building and the last span hidden from view. It can still be seen from the Castlegate side on a sunny day like today #Sheffield

@BladesArchives That man’s left foot is magic!

14th Feb 1993 - #OnThisDay 33 years ago… Dave Bassett’s Sheffield United beat Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United 2-1 at Bramall Lane in the 5th Round of the FA Cup 🏆 #SUFC goals from Jamie Hoyland and Glyn Hodges cancelled out Ryan Giggs’ opener for #MUFC #twitterblades ⚔️

@HLTCO Me and my lad stopped going to watch Blades 4 years ago when he was 16/17 and started playing senior football. I watch him now instead. As much as I still watch some games on tv, the Premier League offers little to me. VAR/the desperation to rule out goals is a big part of that.

I’m never sure if it’s just me getting older (quite possibly is) but it does feel as though football has lost a huge amount of the spontaneity and beauty which made it so joyful for me as a kid. Maybe that just happens to everyone eventually?

Triffic! Yamas! Er, no fanks. #aplaceinthesun

Why’s he dressed like Dr No? #ivebeenexpectingyoumisterbond #aplaceinthesun

As good as Middlesbrough have been, and they’ve been far better than us tonight, how bad has the ref been? #twitterblades

@BladesArchives Can you imagine? @deanobri1968 & @JanAageFjortoft being sold in one day? Must have been a dream or something.

7th Feb 1998 - 28 years ago #OnThisDay Nigel Spackman’s Blades beat Oxford 1-0 thanks to a Bobby Ford goal ⚔️ An unhappy Spackman later resigned due to the sales of Deane & Fjørtoft Steve Thompson took over as #SUFC went onto lose to Sunderland in the playoffs #twitterblades
