Yeah Dennis Smith is always knocking about up my way. Spoken to him a few times over the years and he's a gentleman.

Jackie Marsh used to live by us when we lived in Sandford Hill. Jackie lived in a council house just off Ashwood His house used to back onto the same park as our flat. The one where Foley and New Penny played their games. Rarely saw him sober. He did indeed. On my Grandad's street!

Drinker or not he's still just about the best full back I've ever seen play for Stoke. Never forget him looking for a contact lens on the pitch funny as fuck.

Ah cool. I will keep my eyes peeled. H Three shocks in one day - A) Alsager is a "village" (??) B) RAF says "cool" and C) RAF says "cool" without an expletive! Well it's a town I suppose, but we've always called it the village. So fuck off! ;) Is that cool? H

No mate, Wilko lives in Whitmore. Andy Griffin still lives in Barlaston, Terry Conroy recently moved from Clayton ( don't know where to ) Dennis Smith is still in Lightwood and Begovic was living in Seabridge. I live a mile or so from Denise Coates, Gareth Barry lives a mile the other way and Yvette Fielding closer still. Aren't I lucky 🙄 You are way too lucky to have Yvette Fielding so close to you 😂 I went to college with her. She was a right stuck up cow then. H

Darrel Russel used to live on the Tixall Road in Stafford. A few people I know who lived by him said he was a complete and utter arsehole.

The club asked my Mum if she could put Terry Conroy up for a while,whilst he settled in the area,she told them she would love to,but it would have meant kicking me out.

Spoke to Ian Cranson earlier today at the Nuffield gym.
He's a very nice & approachable guy. I believe that he still lives at Stone.

Had a brew with him in his old house 👍

Denis always looks in pretty good nick to me don't think he's really pushed at the limits like many of his counterparts in his era.

I think he went to Derby, I spoke to him when he was just about to sign for us, but then Barnsley (who were higher placed than us then) made him a better offer, and he went there.
