EARLE, STEVE

Updated: 12-03-26

My Dad, Les Kehoe, went to school with Steve and they remained in touch up until Steve went to the States. I vaguely remember visiting Steve and Jackie in their big house when he was playing for Leicester and playing with their two sons Jamie and I can’t remember the other sons name!

Did Allen marry a girl from Stapleford, Notts? I believe she lived on the next street to me, but I cannot remember her name.

MACDONALD, MALCOLM

I was working at the Crest Hotel South Mimms when Malcolm Macdonald was transferred from Newcastle to Arsenal 1976. I think he had two adjoining rooms in the hotel that he and his family shared for a couple of months when he first arrived. I just think how today he would have been fettered by a Premiership club and given a house to live in instead of a 3 star hotel being a record transfer.

Played in the same side as Colin at Dunston Hill Junior School and at Anfield Plain Secondary Modern. Tremendous schoolboy footballer!

CONWAY, JIMMY

Updated: 01-03-26

Played for Jim at Bolton institute of higher education early 90s. I captained the team to win the Enhlush colleges Cup final in Stafford we won on penalties. I turned up first training session in a Celtic top had no idea who he was but had amazing chats with Jim. He took me to some football trials and got to spend time in his company in his car. He relayed his times playing for Celtic and I sat in complete jealousy of his career. Fantastic man and a proper football man. Often wondered how he was and hope he had a great retirement.

BOWLES, STAN

everything that has been said about stan his true-good &possiply bad! best player i saw at CREWE ALEXANDRA in 60 yrs. played for crewe between man city & carlisle, never missed a game in almost 2 seasons. was warned off going to other clubs by allison and joe mercer, sent out on lone to bury,came to crewe and never looked back. first touch of the ball i could tell he was CLASS. followed his career to qpr & england. saw the record goals he scored for you in europe. would have had many more caps if he applied more dedication or with a different manager-jago/sexton. finally heard he wore odd boots for england & was paid by both sponsers!
