Anyone remember Alan Kilby, Brian Wise and Chris Salt working the doors around late 70s early 80s.

 

Wasn't it Chris salt that appeared on Match of the Day wrestling with the Leicester police circa 1972?

Does anyone remember the bouncers at that old club in Barkers Pool?

 

Names from the 90's like Big Jim (RIP) the former wrestler and Mick Mills, the noted Rotherham boxer?

I remember Big Jim, he was like a house side. The wrestler was Alan Kilby, he was deaf and dumb and a very tough lad.

I knew a lot of the bouncers at various places, Pete Bex from the early days.

Also Hungarian Mick, Joe Durrant, Ronnie Crookes and Ian McIntyre to name but a few.

How's the weather in Bournemouth, I used to live there for a while,(Holdenhurst Road)

Last I heard he had a Pizza Take away in Killamarsh, that man was as full of crap as a silage tank just before emptying.

Most of them were actually on duty getting paid for nothing.

It was the dark days of the Sheffield Police force.

Some of the regular coppers in Josies were Terry Price, Brian Wilson, Farnsworth,and Storer, the latter got locked up for being bent in the metals case, another one called "King" got time for dealing drugs with Tony Bashforth.

All a lot of sheffield coppers thought they had to do was verbal suspects up and then flit around Sheffield night clubs and pubs larging it up.

Ronald Sagar of Humberside police was brought in and they soon had to clean their act up.

 

you say the dark days of the SHEFFIELD police, not a lot has improved so i am told, i left in the 60s prior to then i had dealings with that lot and they never won when it came to me. All they are is a mob of BULLIES
