So the pictures from Dunsbyowl, reminded me of Dave Barber, and got me thinking of other non playing staff you can recall.

Mine are mainly from the 80s/90s

Dave, being one, Stevie Splash (our best ever dj) not sure of his name Steve Woodhead? Who ran the Young Owls (and I think ICO), Rita Nettleship who did all sorts from tea lady to the supporters club if my memory serves me right. 

I'm gonna cheat a bit (was closely associated with the team) and include Alan Smith our most famous and best physio.

Anyone got any others ( recall any stories) from more recently or even further back of any other unsung heroes?

Nearly forgot Mr Meadows, who did the work of about 100 people.

 

 

 

 

Steve Evans, I think, although that might have been one of his aliases. Very funny bloke at times. I did a few gigs with him in the early 80s and he ended up buying a nightclub somewhere in town. No idea where he is now.

Steve Woodhead, is he the one who tried to stop unofficial supporters coaches as thought some groups were giving us a bad name by stopping pubs on the way for one or a dozen or so shandys? LOL 

 

 he wasn't coming from a position of strength ...I  once shared a Saturday afternoon(19 67-68) in  the police room under the  main stand at stoke city's old ground with steve Woodhead , i'd been nicked for heinous crime of chucking a bog roll as the teams came out and steve got done for gobbing on the bobby who nicked me, he didn't see the one stood behind him . …….the sods held us to the end of the game and we never saw a minute of a rare away win .
