I think we played Sheff Wed at Ninian Park a few weeks after the accident.

The supporters club and the Rams had a collection for the families involved annd a cheque was presented to some Sheff Wed fans on the pitch at half time.

Years ago when I was home on leave from the Army I was up in London. The tube was full of Sheffield W fans on there way to Orient for a fixture.

They were brilliant fun and made so much noise I decided to go and watch the game. They lost (2-0 I think) but basically took the ground over and gave the best away support I have ever seen.

I have always had a soft spot for them since then and would love them to beat C Palace next Sunday with Pursey scoring the winner :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
