In addition to the obvious legends, including the above named quartet, he recalls his dear friend, the late Bob Kilby, plus Phil Crump, Jason Crump, Neil Street, Bob Jones, George Craig, Mick Mitchell, Reg Lambourne, Ian Williams, George White, Ken Middleditch, Clive Hitch, Barry Duke, Mac Woolford, Mike Keen, Ernie Lessiter, Danny Malone, Geoff Bouchard, Jimmy Nilsen, Brian Karger and Darryl Ritchings.
