I was once in a TV advert...does that count?
I was once in a TV advert...does that count?
At Notts cricket, 1977, it was, England v Australia, Bothams test debut and the game where Boycott got Randall run out. I'd gone sick from work to go and the camera lingered on me, full frame, applauding a four in a bright red shirt with a white stripe. Fortunately, I went unseen by my boss.
Peter Beagrie scored at Notts and an image of him upside down whilst doing a back flip was in loads of magazines. Unfortunately it looked like my head was emerging from his rear end!
I also invaded the pitch when we won the league with big Sam. I was one of the first to run on as the whistle went and one of the players booted the ball straight in my gut.
It knocked every ounce of air out of me!
Roeylee : Are you the guy asking for a first class ticket to Snottingham?
Tell us more!? 😜
Yes numerous times ive been caught either on TV or on a photo, as I was the Steward at the side of the away dugout for quite a few years, that's my claim to fame
In the 1992-1993 season I used to sit on the front row of the Family Stand with my mum so quite a few times that season, and I had my photo taken with Derek Pavis and then new signing Mark Quayle when I was queueing with a few others for a season ticket in 1998. The photo was in Monday's Nottingham Post.
