Began his football reporting career with The Sheffield Telegraph back in the sixties. A truly nice bloke, who always harboured fond memories of his time in Sheffield. When a local amateur football society asked Kenneth Wolstenholme to speak to their members back in the seventies, his agent asked for £500!
Motty later came up from London for free and didn't even charge expenses!
Happy retirement John.
