Agreed, but I add the scores etc, should I stop then mate.

Not forgetting Miller's fans overseas like to see the score etc.

ELK keep up the good work. I enjoy hearing about any ex miller even those who took the 30 pieces of silver or was it 10 tins of tuna.

Can I just ask - the Steve Thompson who has died age 70 and was associated with the Blades the same one who played for us for a while?

Whether it is or not RIP fella

Different one I think. Steve James Thompson born 1964 played for us. The one who passed was Steve Paul Thompson born 1955.

RIP
