All you lupset wallers, can you remember seeing "dean of ossett" plastered everywhere on rd signs and walls or is this something I dreamt? Seem to remember seeing it everywhere but not having a clue who it was? Anyone know? Lupset in the 70's loved it.

That rings a bell - there was quite some rivalry between Lupset and Ossett, hence the regular meet ups to fight it out on the fields that bordered both (which incidentally, have now been turned into a Country Park, with the beautiful vistas of Lupset on one side and the M1 on the other) so maybe Dean was tagging all over Lupset as a display of provocative bravado?

I agree with you by the way - it was a great place to grow up, despite appearances.

Must have been real tough only having 2 en suite bathrooms in your 6 bedroom house. My heart bleeds for you eusa_boohoo.gif icon_biggrin.gif

Exactly - can you imagine having to keep that lot clean ! And that was in the days when you cleaned with soap, water and newspaper - none of your new fangled detergents and all purpose cleaning cloths.

Good to know that you at least had some empathy for the hired help below stairs.

Popular misconception that!

Street house lads used to wander round in large gangs but on their own, man for man couldn't mix it with Lupset during the 70s.

My family grew up on the cross roads of Whinney Moor and Townley, just recently when all four brothers were out on the Town someone from Spa Grove came up and thanked us.

He said the fact that we lived on the crossroads stopped the gangs from the Dewsbury Rd end of the estate from getting past and offered them protection.
lol

I remember you well - we were at the bottom of Broadway, just across from the beer garden of the Lupset Hotel.

For me, the Lupset experience went sour when they built the Aysgarth estate - it ruined the 'everyone knows everyone' culture and changed the complexion of the estate; it was never the same again.

When i was a nipper playing for the Manor there was always a brawl playing against Sharlston, some real epics, i had just been subbed once with about 10 mins of a game left when it kicked off and it was ferocious or so it seemed at the time, i think i was about 10 or 11 so it was probably slapsies, but Mick Riley ordered me back on the field to crack some heads even though at this point i had my jeans halfway across my boots as i was getting ready to get off home. Great days. I lived just down the rd from your parents at no. 87 i think it was if memory serves me right but not until much later and remember seeing Andy visiting and me getting a right giddy on over it on more than one occasion. a014.gif

Very true, some real nasty pieces of work down there. Sister moved in there with her boyfriend at the time, only lived there a couple of years and managed to get burgled twice.

Aysgarth popularly known ad 'Happy Valley' for obvious reasons.

I kind of agree with you about it changing the character of the area.
