Thanks for the welcome. I think I'm finding it's good to be thinking of something else.

Vaguely remember the names Arnold Ema and Van Bellen (probably Ian rather than Gary)

That's half good right there. Arnold Hema was the Sheffield full back who kicked their solitary points for the afternoon. No Van Bellan's that afternoon though.

Other notables perhaps; Vince Farrar, Paul McDermott, Mark Campbell (another ex-Leeds colt.)

IIRC Gamson, Campbell and Powell were Hetherington's first 3 signings at his fledgeling club. I've got a feeling the '84 JP Special Trophy game was the first time we welcomed Sheffield to Headingley.

I thought '84 but those games around then are a blur. Was that the year we won it or the year after we won it?

We beat Widnes in the final the season before. In 84/5 after Sheffield Leeds beat Wigan at Headingley (John Holmes/Tony Currie), then accounted for Bramley in the quarters before going down to Hull at a snow bound Boothferry Park in the semi.

What a pity Hema's forename didn't start with the letter "N".

I think Hema also played for Bramley ?

Didn't he used to kick the goals 'torpedo' style, with the ball laying almost flat to the ground (rather than on its point like most other kickers) and connected with the 'end' of the ball to get it over the posts ?

Narnold Hema

Two good questions and too good for me.

Guess you're right. You don't think I need to see a doctor do you ?
