MAGnets - links to Sheffield United FC

"Is this the real life, is this just fantasy" starts some Queen Song.

 

Following Saturday, it is a question I too pose of Notts County 14/15 thus far.  Patchy start, Long unbeaten run followed by another patchy run.

 

Which is true and which is temporary?  What can we hang our season on, and what is blips / peaks?

 

So, onto Brammall Lane on Friday night, and a club surprisingly still plying its trade in these "depths" last coing so near a couple of years ago.  The day we won at Wycombe, Stevenage drew with Sheff U.  A result that proved to be costly for both us and the blades; we missed out on GD to the 'newtown lot' in that years playoffs; and Sheff U were left to rue dropped points as they missed out on the autos - their City rivals Wednesday.  Anyhow.

 

Links - plenty here of both managerial and playing variety; I'll try to go with a couple of slightly offbeat examples, and here's to this being the largest MAGnet thread thus far....

 

Paul Rodgers (brought in to replace Peter Butler!) and Tony Battersby ("the new Alan Shearer").

Billy Dearden played for them and also managed us of course.

A player I remember from the 60s Doc Pace who joined Notts in 1964 from Sheffield United and played 29 games scoring 15 goals.

Willie Carlin a great midfield player who @super_ram will remember has also played for both clubs along with Derby County.

It's a bit obvious, but can I be the first to say Jimmy Sirrel? Who not only managed the Blunts, but also designed their badge ...
