We had a few hero's Jimmy Johnson, Dennis Fitzpatrick, Swazza, Frank Simpson, Joe and Tom Nadiole, Gary Senior to name a few, all could handle themselves

Two words:

ARNIE LOMAX.

Never saw "The Terminator" take a backward step, we had some cracking players round that time

Just shown Mrs this footage. She new him straight away; He worked at David Browns, she thinks he may of went on to work within the police force?

she's correct, last time i spoke to him he had just had a promotion to a top job in C.I.D i think .

Pretty sure he was a copper if memory serves

Edit, just seen Daz's post

Seems he is

saw his lad,mark in town a few weeks back and he recognised me from when we were youths and his dad used to take us to fartown to sweep the terraces,had a right good chat we did,think mark was only about 8 at the time im sure daz will remember?

TJ is alive and well --in the constabulaire --and as fit as a dog on best steak!!

and despite the hammer he got -- a more laid back and friendly fella you`ll never meet !!

Be down at Cardiff next Feb --so you can meet up for a beer if yer fancy-and maybe he`ll tell yer all about that friendly !!

Not sure about that? I've worked at David Browns for the last 30 years and I can't remember him working there but I might be wrong? His brother has always worked there in the Hardening Department and still does to this day.

David Browns of Meltham. My Mrs has given me that look when I asked her are you sure! it was YES and btw it would have been around 1978-80ish?

Ah understood I worked at Crosland Moor and started in 79.

I won't tell her she is right - I will only get that I told you so look.
