  1. Lots of good blokes on here. Some that aren’t with us anymore.
    My uncle Willis (Brian) Thickett, Sammy Johnson (my 1st manager at Dynamos), Eric Thorpe (who I worked with at R&C when I was just 16), Ronnie Ward (enjoyed a pint or 2 with him in Blacksmiths and Juniors).

  2. Further to my previous comments I believe Ronnie Ward played as a semi professional for Worksop Town F.C. & John Bull played as a half back for Mosbro’ Trinity F.C.
    Mr. Martin or ‘Bob’ Martin as he was known locally lived in Queen Street Mosborough.

    Mr. Martin or ‘Bob’ Martin as he was known locally by the kids was so called after the famous dog biscuits & lived in Queen Street Mosborough.

  4. Ronnie Ward is the goalkeeper who also played for N.E. Derbyshire & England Under 15 Boys.
    Instead of playing professional football he along with John Bull worked as bricklayers for Wm. Drabble & Sons in Mosborough.
