Leslie Chapman Was in digs with him in early 70's in Huddersfield where we both played football for the terriers. He was a very good friend then and I'd love to get in touch with him.

Fairclough, Mick Met Mick when I was one of the cleaners at Huddersfield Town football ground. He was only about 20 yrs old at the time. Think he had probably only just left home. A lovely friendly lad. Such a pity his career was cut short so early. So glad he was able to find success elsewhere. Fair play to him.
