*Twinkle* Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Didn't Dennis Hobson get banned from Sheffield? If so, the Sheffield forum is hardly place to discuss it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timo Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 I'd be interested to know more about the Morgan character. I would have been 8 in 1969, so he was before my time. However, I have heard tales of the man's lethal prowess with the "nut" [head- butting]. I was told that he was very stocky, of medium height and absolutely fearless. If Deadgobby, or anyone else has some background details, I would be pleased. I was also told that Morgan once took on a huge opponent, and virtually climbed up the guy to deliver the fatal blow. Which area was he from? Did he work in the market? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
