He grew up on the Pollards Hill estate, my sister was friends with his sister or was it his girlfriend ?

My nephew Stuart knew him and he drank in the 'ouse of gloom' (Horse and Groom).

I think he was a bit of a thug/rogue from what Stuart told me.

Not that it is important, but I thought he lived just off the estate in Sherwood park road, which was just aroun the corner from me (abbots rd.) certainly a regular at the groom, which like most pubs aroun there has long gone.


He did indeed at his mums house just passed the shops on the left. I lived in Walton Way, so the H&G was really close.


Did you ever get involved with the "H&G golf society" Jamie?

It was called Groom Manor - my brother-in-law Bob Wilmer help run it with the landlord in the 70's. I played a few times and it had a few bandits playing off high handicaps, but clearly weren't novices. Great drink ups around the unsuspecting courses of Surrey. and Sussex.

Does anyone know who he supported though - was it a Palace or Millwall?

Don't remember him particularly supporting a team. He was too busy with his girlfriend. Most of the school were Chelsea supporters back then.

I remember Nigel Martyn's debut home to spurs, Dennis ran half the length of the pitch to take a swing at Gazza when it kicked off in front of the dug outs.......I liked him!!


Haha, yes that was awesome, certainly the quickest he ever moved in a Palace shirt ! Didn't mind a bit of argy bargy did King Den !!

It was quite funny because he was the furthest player away when the scuffle started, Nigel Martyn see him charging across and could see what was coming so tried to intervene, but he couldn't catch him.

Sorry Hoof, I was never a golfer, BUT I do/did know who you mean, I also worked in the pub for a while during my leave from RN.....God, time flies

Yea, Dark Menace had to go north to get a game, such was his reputation. Palace just loaned him for a few games and he ran around fist raised, spuring on the team. I don't think anyone was safe whatever team they were in. Quite inspiring, the boy from Norbury.
