(By the way, it's, again, testicular cancer. So I assume he dopes like all those other sportsmen with testicular cancer.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

maryportfuncity 10,646 Posted July 24, 2017 I was banging on in the football thread about a great book on non-league football called The Bottom Corner. There's discussion in there of Derik Brooks one of the founders of FA Cup giant killers Eastleigh. He founded the club in 1946 and - unless I'm missing summat - he appears to still be above ground.
