dunsbyowl1867 Posted June 8, 2007 Share Posted June 8, 2007 So you're there, Dr Who appears and you step into the Tardis and in a blink of an eye are transported back to a game at Owlerton c.1910. You take your place in the stand and up goes the chant "Play up Blades" and you think what the hell is this all about? Then you remember... Everyone knows this of course but it's still a shock reading in black (or red) and white. Still nearly a century of them picking up our cast offs! Nicknames, Curran, Bromby, Quinn...

United's original nickname was The Cutlers and we were The Blades....the change came about after the move to Owlerton. Oh and we left Olive Grove in 1899....
