I used to see him every morning when I was cycling to JL VI Form Col along Ashby Road. I think he was in digs somewhere off Rochdale Road and he would jog to the OSG where he would then run up and down the steps of the cantilever stand until the rest of the team turned up.
He trained harder and longer than anyone else so to say he never did a day’s hard graft is doing him a disservice.
