Roger Osborne?

The FA Cup was truly magical, I’m reminded of a sad anecdote, after he was finished up by the City and before he took over at Newport I spoke to him on a bus stop on Greenway Rd, Rumney. Weirdly he was door to door selling jewellery so he told me, looking back he may have been under a driving ban, hence being in the bus shelter, I was so surprised that such a famous man was actually waiting for a bus. Anyway he shook my hand after we spoke and for ages after I regarded it as a massive thing that I had touched the hand of a man who’d held the FA Cup, the FA Cup meant that much to me.

Jesus, I’m still so overcome, I forgot to mention that it was Jimmy Scoular

When I first read it, without the name, I thought it was about Brian Harris

Now you mention it Tony, this might be one of my imagining things from the mists of time, I’ve got a really vague recollection of Scoular mentioning that him and Harris were working together. This could be total bollocks but there’s a nagging something in the back of my mind.

Well you have been locked up for 8 weeks

Used to have a drink with Brian, upstairs in the doubles bar, at the Globe in town, most Saturday nights.
Great fella
