When Lionel Pickering was chairman I was lucky enough to have a number of visits to the Director's Lounge as I was at school with Lionel.He was very keen that old players were looked after.I met many of them there,Ray Young,Gerry Daly,Reg Harrison,Dave McKay to name just a few.So don't know why King Kev never came, he would have been welcomed.Living near Kidderminster I saw in the local paper that Les Maynard was not very well,I mentioned it to Jeff Knight who immediately invited him along,unfortunately he was not well enough.
