Gavan Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I remember in 1990 he hitchhiked all the way to Lvov when Chris Louis won the world under 21 trophy. 3rd that day was a certain Tony Rickardsson ....whatever happened to him! Saw Noddy at Ipswich at the cup final.....truly a superfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiegal Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I have known Noddy ever since 1969 when Ipswich re-opened on The Heath. Indeed he was an amazing character, often drove riders and promoters mad, but he was so engaging and enthusiastic that in fact he was so much part of the sport. I was in the party to Ukraine in 1990 and Neil MacFarlane would always relate an hilarious tale about Noddy. I will miss his smile, his regular requests for lifts, and indeed if I ever wanted the inside story of a team or rider, Noddy always knew. We have lost some great names from Ipswich..JB John Earrey, Joe Thurley, Billy, etc..etc....Noddy old son, you were so much part of the Foxhall set up.....RIP old son 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
