    We beat Chesterfield 1-0 at Oakwell. I missed the match that day because at 3 o'clock i was at Elsecar Church marrying my wife to be. 48 years on we are still happily together.
    At the time i married her she worked at the club as Jock Steele's secretary, she reckoned i only married her for the complimentary tickets she used to get.

    Congratulations . I went to school next door and we had our Harvest festivals in Elsecar church, a lovely old building. 48 years ago complimentary tickets were more likely a punishment than a pleasure;)

    Yet another who acts in self interest.! My mate who is a keen Angler only
    married their lass 'cos she had worms.!
    All jesting aside IME, heartiest congratulations to you both. On 3rd June
    this year my lovely wife and I will have been wed for 47 years. I don't regret
    a minute of that time. She's an amazing lass and feel blessed she's my wife.

    I missed that match too. I was busy getting married at Penistone Church. We are still as one today.
