The TV appearances these days are much more frequent with the introduction of Sky Sports plus.
Most recently , been spotted at Wimbledon ,Bradford City, Harrogate and MK Dons .
Surprising how many people in our town point it out when out walking.

I was once on TV at Southwell Races behind the lovely Alice Plunkett and The Booby as McCririck used to call her at Uttoxeter.Quote:

I've been on TV a few times over the years including a home game v Chelsea in the late 70s (Notts lost 3-2), at Spurs in the 1991 FA cup quarter final (just before KO when the camera panned around the away end) and last season away at Grimsby (a few mates saw me going mental on TV shortly after we scored!).Quote:

I was also featured in the audience on ITV talent show Walk the Line when my musician stepson Youngr was performing on it a few years ago (a cheesy X Factor style programme which thankfully didn't damage his career - or mine lol!) ;)
PS. First time I've been on this board for years. I didn't know it was still going!
