There is a book in the library, can't remember the title, but it's about Sheffield pubs. And there is an article about the Staff. in the book.

 

thanks for that i telephoned the library in town centre and the guy had a look for me he said that he couldn't find anything but i have booked an appointment to go in today and search the archives for it :)

I got the book from Burngreave library, I seem to remember it may have been about Sheffield ghost stories. Anyway look in the local history section of the library.
