TonyMac 720 Posted June 25, 2007 With the BL list set to appear in our next issue (to be posted out this Thursday), we're now looking further ahead to the following issue (No.22) and our Great Entertainers for the National League. Don't forget, the period we're focusing on is 1970-1990 only, so come on, please let's have your nominations... There are probably more candidates than at BL level. Here are some obvious contenders to get you going... Barney Kennett Martin Dixon Richard Green Jack Millen Barry Thomas Alan Mogridge Andrew Silver Rob Grant Kelvin Mullarkey Arthur Browning Rob Woffinden Roger Johns Martin Goodwin Jens Rasmussen Joe Owen Neil Collins Merv Janke Colin Cook Mark Loram Tony Childs Tony Featherstone Gary Havelock Tiger Beech Dave Kennett Gordon Kennett Phil Collins Les Collins Malcolm Ballard Geoff Maloney Eric Broadbelt Bob Garrad Gary Peterson Stan Bear Simon Wigg Les "Red' Ott Peter Collins(!)
