BOBBATH Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 This comes under the heading "bobbath get a life"-actually it follows on from the Norman Hunter thread because he had a beard in 1963. I also came up with : James Bond, Tommy Sweetman, Reg Reeves, George Major, Jimmy Squibb-there must be others but I can't remember.!! BTW re the West Ham memories youtube video , John Chaplin came up with many incisive comments and was extensively interviewed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said before that 1969 was a big turning point for me as far as speedway, and I have constantly studied it.

We are talking about "beards", but how many of them could actually be classed as beards? Crutcher, Andrews, Cole, Broadbank, Roger Hill (I think he grew his in 1970), all they had was a bit of fluff on their chins! Strange when you think about it...
