Grachan 7,314 Posted February 26, 2018 My main experience of Bob Hughes is that I though I'd seen him ride but hadn't. My first ever meeting was Weymouth v Crewe in 1974. Weymouth used R/R for Bob Hughes, but I didn't know anything about that. I just assumed it was him and filled in my programme accordingly. Pretty sure I never did actually get to see him ride.

Rob Dyer 116 Posted February 28, 2018 Condolences to the family. Bob was a very solid scorer and great team man. Often saw him hard at work in his garage adjacent to Bath Green Park station. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
