He was a very bright bloke, he worked part time in the same office as me, I never met him though.


My memory fades but I am pretty sure he sold his sports shops to a multinational for a small fortune.

He and Dicky Rooks were the CFs of my first few years of watching the Boro.


Dementia is a terrible terrible disease.

RIP

Bought My first pair of Forrest Hills from his shop £34:50, Borg Elites there too.

Didn't realise Eric was his brother
