Someone pointed out Roy North at night game at Fulham...City won 1-0...Shook his hand and said hello, but he didn't say anything...'Boom...boom'... I recognised Alan Plater standing outside of the Roundhouse theatre, Camden Town, about ten years ago..Went over and had a chat about City..Nice bloke....Think he sadly passed away not long after...He didn't look in the best of health and the way he was puffing on the cig in his hand, didn't help
Dave Rotheray goes to city all the time also see him at away games! Must be our biggest unnoticed celeb?
Writer & lead guitar! Him Heaton 2nd only to Lennon & McCartney and he drifts through the ranks unnoticed!
You know what - I was confusing him with Dave Hemmingway who replaced Hugh as Housemartins' drummer and then went into Beautiful South.. You can tell I'm not a fan, I think they were absolutely ****e.
Rotherray wasn't in housemartins! The person you was confusing him with was! That's why I didn't have stipulate
He drummed with The Housemartins. I saw him on Top of the Pops, think it was Build. edit - quick bit of research shows he's drummed since school apparently: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Hemingway :
