The adult were mostly kids when they came out
The great Franny Lee
He did the European Champions some service. His spell as Chairman was hilarious and thoroughly depressing, but that was the City we knew and loved back then.
RIP. I heard a couple of funny stories about him over the weekend from some actors. Apparently during an argument with Garry Hynes he told her she couldnāt direct his cock into a bowler hat.
Was that the repeat of Parkinson on Friday or Saturday night? She was on with Attenborough.
No, she was cooking and licking her fingers and the like.

Ivor Robson. He was the guy who did the intros on the first tee of The Open.
Did the what?
He was the guy who did the intros on the first tee of The Open.

Ineligible Iām afraid.
Thereās a select group of announcers whose names wouldnāt be generally known but whose voices mean something.
Yer man who does the announcements in Croke Park, Jerry Grogan (I do know his name but a lot of people wouldnāt) is one.
The guy used to do the announcements at Lansdowne Road in the glory days of Jackās Army is another. His voice was an integral part of those days. He was inexplicably replaced at the height of his powers.
Yer man who did the classified check on Grandstand and his lesser known ITV equivalent.
The presenters of Trans World Sport.
The āletās get ready to rumbleeeeeeā chap from the boxing.
Eurosport commentators on minority sports whose names you donāt remember.
The Mind The Gap man.
1990ās innocent timesā¦
The guy who did the intros for the 1990s Chicago Bulls
The Hustler is a stone cold classic
The lad at Anfield has a very distinctive voice too. Light scouse often with a hint of a crack/break mid sentence, heās been doing it for decades.
