'Cricket Lovely Cricket'

Great bowler, but long ago looked like he had heart atttack potential. In that respect he reminded me of many big, beefy, thick-necked former South African rugby players (not just Springboks) who ballooned once they stopped playing. I used to see them in supermarket queues, look at the contents of their trollies, and think, this won’t end well.

By contrast, this thread’s initial post was about a skinny little guy, who even though he owned a fine Saddleworth pub, made it into the nineties. Not bad for a bowler!
