Football Caves!

July 24, 2023

Football Caves / Sheds appearing in Hampshire Whites!

It has come to my notice as secretary of Hampshire Whites that we have a lot of ‘designated spaces’ springing up in members’ houses and gardens.

This first one belongs to a new Hampshire Whites member, Alex.


I moved house last year in October to Totton, and wanted a space to watch the football without the Mrs claiming I was hogging the TV.


Wherever possible, my main aim was to try and use materials that would otherwise be thrown away. My feature wall is made of pallets I’ve collected from sites that I work on, and a lot of the wood on the bar was made from wood from my mother- in- laws old shed.


MORE...

The bar still needs some more LUFC memorabilia, but the posters I’ve got on the wall are celebrating the best year of football I’ve ever witnessed as a Leeds fan (the 2019/20 promotion season). I’ve been a Leeds fan since the late 90s/early 00s (born in 1991) so haven’t had many opportunities to see us where I’d like us to be, but hang on to memories like the Bielsa era, and even before in League One. My Leeds heroes of my generation are players like Jermaine Beckford, Pablo Hernandez and my childhood idol Lucas Radebe.


When the bar is completely finished it will be called ‘The Radebe Inn’ featuring some Leeds and Kaiser Chiefs artwork in honour of Lucas Radebe, who’s testimonial I went to when he retired.


Looking forward to (hopefully) another session similar to the 19/20 season with Farke steering the ship, and although it’s not got a patch of Jeff Borg’s man cave it’ll do for a start!

In January 2024 my dad took me to see my first ever Leeds United game. I liked it so much I asked if we could go again. But my Dad said we would have to see as it cost too much for travel. We kept watching on the TV and I kept on at my Dad about going to Elland Road again. Then in July time we met this man in the Range in Andover, I later found out he was Simon the Pie man. We got talking about Leeds United because of his tattoos and he told us about the Hampshire Whites. That night my Dad filled in some forms online and signed us up to the Hampshire Whites. Before long we got our badges in the post and we were members.

A rare trip to Wembley for Hampshire Whites!

To be so close to clinching automatic promotion back to the premier league and then fall away at the end was disappointing to see. But, looking at the overall picture and the mass exodus of players leaving or wanting to leave during pre-season the team have done incredibly well under the management of Daniel Farke.
