Whilst we are on the subject of missing players, on visiting Scunthorpe Hospital last week I got talking to this really elderly guy, who informed me that he had played for Scunny from 1946 until 1954 and that his name was Chow Mein, he also informed me that he had been a Kamikaze Pilot in the 2nd world war, and joimed Scunny on leaving the air force, I told him that I watched Scunny from, 1951 and could not remember him playing.
I asked him how he had not been killed if he was a Kamikaze Pilot, he told me that “the reason being was because he was “Chicken Chow Mein”.
