I dont think Ben Mees daughter is called Oliver though.
Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
Do we have any updates how Olive Grace is progressing. It was only yesterday when my wife ( certainly not a football fan ) asked me if I had any news about her. Best regards from Florida to the entire Mee family and as CT said especially Olive Grace

Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
A poingnant end to a difficult year. Thanks CT for the reports and it’s often said it’s just a game....which it is when viewed against some of the horrors of this year.........hopefully 2021 will see us all back on The Turf with the game back to being important in our lives.......
Happy New Year all!
Happy New Year all!

Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
Thanks CT-whilst we took all that pressure from Sheff Utd,, we forget that Ramsdale made two incredible saves too, from Wood & Barnes, that normally would have gone in

Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
Very true and just how cheesed off was Chris Wood with the save he made from him ---even though we did score from the corner.warksclaret wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 6:14 pmThanks CT-whilst we took all that pressure from Sheff Utd,, we forget that Ramsdale made two incredible saves too, from Wood & Barnes, that normally would have gone in

Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
Another thank you from me. A lot of work must go into match reports and the nostalgia section. Much appreciated.The Enclosure wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 6:50 pmGreat report as always Tony...Hard to believe its 6 years since Ben last scored.Can remember him scoring but not the match
Think the game Ben last scored at the Turf was the one where we were 2-0 up and lost very late on 2-3 with Dwight Gayle scoring their winner.

Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
It was. Only his third goal on the Turf, the other was against Millwall in 2012. He’s scored away goals at Chelsea, Bristol City, Huddersfield, Man City & Crystal Palace.Silkyskills1 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 30, 2020 7:29 pmAnother thank you from me.

Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
I believe she’s doing well and getting stronger. To have to go through that and then not be able to go and see her in hospital must have been agonising for them.
I hadn’t planned to write about Ben but it just seemed appropriate given all the challenges he’s had this year and then to score our last goal of the year.

Great report and a very nice tribute to Ben Mee.
Thanks for the reports, always value the reviews from a claret perspective.

Re: REPORT: Blades blunted as year ends
Another excellent report to end another year of excellent reports Tony, much better than anything you read in the press. Well done on just about a perfect and fair summary of just about every match. Best Wishes for 2021, hope you can report on live football at some stage during the year.
