PS We'd all better be carefull as soon enough we'll be posting old pictures In the early 60's he was known in Derby as a hard man, not many messed with him, i only knew him by sight and reputation.

Yeah. Just turned 59. Ian rings a bell, as it matches mine (first name). Now you mention it, I think he was once referred to as a runt... but probably only the once! ? ??
