Not to mention Shiregreen

Being as noone's bothered to (or are ashamed to ) admit to where they're initially from. I was brought up on Bellhouse Rd., Shiregreen. Went to Firth Park Grammar School where a school pal of mine was Wilf Smith's brother! Worked as a trainee metallurgist at Samuel Osborne's before moving to Southampton as a cartographic draughtsman and later to London working as a clerical officer for the Ministry of defence. Now live in Veracruz, Mexico, as a radio d.j. and singer with my own retro rock group 5 hrs. drive away from everybody's well beloved imre (606 version)

Trueblue you literally live the dream!
Woodhouse is lovely in the evening spartacus but I must admit the chavs from the Badger occasionly wander onto the new estate which in my opinion devalues it!!!

Kendrey. now thats an area Spartacus, ironically my wifes from there!

I am a strapping 23 year-old adonis and intellectual giant. I have won just about every artistic prize going and the Nobel people are eyeing me up following my outstanding medical work in Tonga. I am a surfing god and my sun-bleached flowing locks have the frontal plaits of a Napoleonic French hussar. I have an encyclopaedic knowledge of klezmer clarinet tunes and am a master of the french horn. I have climbed all fourteen 8,000 metre peaks solo by a new route without oxygen. I have attended nearly every Sheffield Wednesday home match since I was 8 despite living in Monaco. I am deeply ashamed of those omissions and have removed a digit for every game missed as a reminder of my blasphemy. I am an ever-present at the back of the Kop, spouting vitriol and booing anyone who slightly irritates me, as endless cups of boiling bovril slip through my remaining fingers.

They have a saying for that in Mexico:

"Tell me what you're bragging about and I'll tell you what you're missing!"

Well heres the story of Mega Milan

Mega Milan and his Jesus-Esque dingle slaying toupee was born in 1981 in the old market town of Chesterfield, North Derbyshire. He has two children (8 years & 15 months) and lives with his wife & kids in Middlecroft, a few miles outside chesterfield and works as an accounts administrator for a global energy company.

He has supported the mighty owls for exactly 20 years after seeing them play Aston Villa in the opening game of the 1991-92 season on Match of the Day. He is qouted as saying "despite us losing the game there was a special feeling about this team, I cannot explain it, it was like love at first sight and I never looked back"!!

I was born in '83 in Grimsby, unfortunately (can anyone smell it?) but soon moved to Crawley. Very soon after that my dad got a new job in worksop and thats when my Wednesday career started. I think my first match started with a defeat to man city.

I moved to Dublin in '02 and worked in HMV where I was one of three wednesday fans! oh shop only employed about 15 people, so thats saying something. Moved back to england and went to uni in Sunderland in '06 and lived in Oz for a year. WW commentary at 1am over there, the missus 'loved' that!

Now I live in the god forsaken cesspit called Leeds and work as a web designer for an international law firm. Try and get down to as many matches as possible but money is often an issue.

Me too Dewalts, cant think why

Sparty at least my kids didnt arrive via my Mother/Sister/GRANDMOTHER...and for your info my kids are well brought up as it goes thankyou, they dont hang round on streets with bottles/ cans of cheap lager, shout expletives at decent folk which I belive is the norm at your tiny little run down village in northern Sheffield

Just do one Sparty, no-one likes you here, im sick of your petty little wind up attempts trying to make our you are the only person in Barnsley that has any remote intellegence when in fact its not naturally bred, sorry in-bred, into your Barnsley born genes

Yet another classy riposte, Tup...

Are the kids still giving you spelling lessons?

You can always filter me....
