ballie Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 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? Ray now lives in Short Ferry near Lincoln he was my mates uncle I met him in 67 when he was visiting his sister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crookesey Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Its about time this thread was shut down .... You obviously don't care for this thread, you have posted on it twice, once to have it merged with the'Big Hitters' thread, which I can understand, and one to close it, which I can't. If I don't care for the content of a thread I tend to stay off it, but I don't see any problem with this one, perhaps you could elaborate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
