sharrovian Posted November 10, 2008 Share Posted November 10, 2008 I have noticed that Sheffield United have set-up a fellowship for past players at the lane. When I was working back in the 1960s a player came to work part-time where I worked his name was Cliff Mason, I seem to remember that he captained the side for a while and he played left-back, he was a genial chap and quite a few of us Unitedites were very friendly with him, I just wondered if anybody knew of his whereabouts. I have also in recent years become acquainted with one Roy Turley who is also an ex-blade, I believe he played for United back in the 1950s and had a brother who was an Owls player. Roy lives in Stalham, Norfolk where I have a cousin. Does anybody else know of the whereabouts of any ex-players? United could be interested.

Redfyre Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Cec was one of the best --a really good guy, lovely man, and, as a player, someone who learned how to make the best use of his talents. A terrific servant to United, in the true Bramall Lane tradition for service and loyalty. I hope The Star will give him a good write-up, even though I don't imagine they have anyone on the staff who really knows all about what a good lad Cec was. Pity Peter Howard isn't around to put the record straight. You Blades fans, get sending some letters in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
