I lived in the same street as Alan. He was genuine guy and used to kick about with us although we were younger. Sad to hear he has passed away.

Vic was "The Boss" (manager of Rochdale AFC) in 1984/85 and I was one of 8 Apprentice Footballers. He was a great boss, loved a Big Mac as I recall!

Steve was in the year above me at Whitton Secondary School. His year had a good team and played in an all London schools final at Hounslow Towns ground against a school team from East London, which included John Sissons.(later West Ham) They unfortunately won. p.s. My year were rubbish in comparison!!

Pete was our pension advisor for years. Whenever he came round it was more of a social event than a pension meeting. Stayed for hours. A really genuine guy and a real gentleman as well

I was a young apprentice at Grimsby Town when you arrived around 69 mate. I clearly remember your old house in Trinity Rd and the Cortina you used to race around in with Dave Worthington. If you ever read this best regards from Cornwall.
