Sad news that big Stoke fan Sid the Hairdresser has sadly passed away,top top guy. Spent many hours in the past talking nothing but football to Sid. RIP Top man.

 

Totally agree.Stoke to the core.He used to cut my hair 40 years ago when he was in Huntbach street.Never mentioned I was a Vale fan in case he slipped.Top bloke.RIP Sid.

Sad to hear that Sid has passed away.He was a massive Stoke fan but attended Vale too.He was one of the old breed of fans who attended both Stoke and Vale games.His barber's shop in the early days at Newcastle and later in Hanley was the place to go for the latest gossip from both clubs,as the management and players all went there for their haircuts.Great guy and well respected.RIP Sid !!!

Sometimes your mind plays tricks on you but I'm sure Alan used to smoke whilst cutting your hair. How times change eh?

 

In the late 80s/early 90s there were 4 of them all working in the shop just outside Hanley, and they were still mad busy. I think it was his son and daughter in addition to him and Alan.

 

Any self respecting football fan needed to go there as the talk was of little else, and always in an educated way with no real bias for either club although he was a Stokie. I remember seeing Sid only recently at Vale Park, so his 2 club support continued many years.

 

THE place to have your hair done at that time, and the last time that having it done was an event rather than a chore as far as my personal experience goes

Alan was never without a fag while cutting hair, he used to buy them from our shop just across the road.
