BIRTHDAY<br />
CELEBRATIONS<br />
FOR MARY<br />
Mary Hall – a Blade since the 1950s – will be<br />
celebrating her 86th Birthday today in the TC<br />
Suite.<br />
Mary will be looking forward to celebrating with<br />
her dear friends Tony and Liz Currie after making a<br />
fine recovery from a serious recent illness and her<br />
enthusiasm for <strong>United</strong> remains as strong as ever.<br />
Mary would like to thank everyone at the Lane<br />
who has supported her so well through some<br />
difficult times.<br />
Son Chris will also be sharing this special day<br />
with Mary, as it also the 60th anniversary of his<br />
first ever match at Bramall Lane when in April 1963<br />
he attended a game against Leyton Orient (2-0 to<br />
the Blades) under floodlights and saw the great<br />
Len Badger make his first team debut.<br />
We hope you both have a great day with us this<br />
afternoon.<br />
TC WELCOME<br />
FOR WADE<br />
Blades ambassador Tony Currie<br />
is welcoming a very special<br />
guest for today’s visit of <strong>Preston</strong>.<br />
Unfortunately, Wade was<br />
diagnosed with a terminal brain<br />
tumour in July 2022 and is<br />
currently undergoing a course of<br />
chemotherapy.<br />
After hearing this news, TC<br />
wanted to make today’s game<br />
a special one for Wade, who is<br />
53 today.<br />
Wade is huge fan of TC and of<br />
the Blades, and also cites Brian<br />
Deane and Tony Agana as two of<br />
his other <strong>United</strong> heroes.<br />
It is a family of Blades with<br />
Wade’s wife Caroline and<br />
daughter Angel all having bricks<br />
in the wall around Bramall Lane,<br />
as well as Wade’s grandparents<br />
and parents.<br />
Wade and his family are TC’s<br />
guests for the afternoon, enjoy<br />
your day with us.<br />
