Sorry, for being thick, And folk wonder why some don't bother much with these forums

Very confusing,

I know/knew most of them Neil, I know you too, and you know me ,

correctamundo

I think you will find I'm right, as usual, Alison

Almost sure this is a very nice lady named Rose, from Cannock,

A tad harsh

Same guy in the centre of the picture here having a great time

Yea, I do, I just thought I would mention a personal one from a Saturday, remember stood on the main road at the bottom of Lord street waiting for the last bus to Bolton (Sunday), fighting the townies off wishin it would hurry up, remember Gazzo?

Know and remember Gal, still see Mildoo (John Mills good friend of Dave Rimmer on here) sometimes, Billy is a great guy, will know me for sure, but when I mention Leigh to him he looks unsure lol but we got along great in the 90's, he's still with Netty I take it, I have a feeling we're gonna get told this should be in all our yesterdays soon, sorry mods

Longy, I used to hang around/sit on the right hand side near the stage as you look at it, with Ordy and Billy Gannon and a few others on Saturday nights, and sometimes go with the Bolton lot on a Sunday Night where it seemed to kick off at the end of the night every week, It was a Saturday Night though that a Leigh lad for no apparent reason decided he wanted a go at me on the way out, I ignored him long enough to get away from the entrance and duly sorted him out, funny thing is I was an apprentice at Wigan Met at the time and worked on Higher Fold, Monday morning in the canteen all everone is talking about is Billy Smith (sure that was his name, not made up) got a kicking off a load of big Bolton thugs, I was about 5'8" 10 stone and with my girlfriend apparently he lived on the same estate I was working on so I didn't say anythin, Edit -Only just seen your earlier post where you mention Billy Gannon, didn't know Dean til Golborne CC days in the 90s, where I met up with Billy again and for months didn't realise it was him lol

that's the first I've heard Gary Ord mentioned since about '79, used to see him regularly at Leigh Casino early sessions

The UK release is a different title, heard somewhere it had to be changed due to some kinda protest from the anti-abortion movement, dunno how true but makes sense,

Come on Ronnie, spit it out

So Hovis is still with us but Scottish Kenny is brown bread, Sorry

But Jim where in this dodgy webpage does it say he mistreated the lady with the same name he 'may' have been married to for a short time that you alluded to in post 55?

You're right but 'may have been' when we are talking about an ex heavywieght world champ and a Motown legend doesn't fill me with confidence, as I said earlier I could be wrong

Very good, so no Ernie connection then

Was just gonna say almost the same thing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Okeh_Records

I agree 100% Jim, but it's hardly Ernies responsibility, because they had the same name, he was busy nursing his own injuries sustained from repeated whacks over the head from Ali's right hand, he wasn't bright enough to call the greatest by his real name, let alone defend another Terrell he probably doesn't know lol

And no mention of Tammi here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernie_Terrell

I still say there is no connection between Ernie and Tammi Terrell apart from sharing the same surname, so I'm not sure why he should give James Brown a good hiding, but then again what do I know?

Like I said, thankyou

Ernie was who's brother? Not Tammi's surely
