Details I have are vague. A relative of mine is trying to trace two old mates he's not seen for years.</p> First is a bloke called Derek. He is a Scot originally who moved down to Barnsley around the mid-70's. He would have lived in the Staincross area initially, then married a Barnsley lass late 70's and moved I "believe" to the Darton area, though I am not 100% on that detail.</p> Second bloke is called Steve I think, possibly Staincross too. All I know about this guy is that he was a really good amateur jockey in his younger days before walking way from the sport. I believe he used to work at a pit around the time of the strike and used to go to Reds matches at that time from the Staincross Working Mens Club. Not the tallest bloke (unsurprisingly !)</p> If these details ring a bell with anyone ...... please drop me a line.</p> Many thanks.</p>
Btt. Don't want to make this a sticky But if you older ones could have a think for me ?</p> </p> Much appreciated.</p>
