I really enjoyed this article, it takes me back and you certainly have captured the atmosphere of playing back then. The Moatfield, was always a mudbath back then, as I remember. I played for Bushey Rangers at the time too. It was a long time ago and I honestly don’t remember being in the same side as Kenny or Nigel, although I am the same age as Kenny. I only played a short time, for the under 12s and under 13s so perhaps they joined after I left, but I do remember both the Peter Henneys, as well as Jegs Parker and John Tyler who were also active in running the side then. David Woodfield’s son Gary played and was a pretty good player, his dad would often turn up on the sidelines to encourage us. Other names I recall from the team were Stewart Tyler, Paul Bloxham and Jegs Parker’s son (sorry forgotten the first name, but it might be Gary).
Mike, getting comments like yours, and KJ telling me he liked it, makes all the researching and writing worthwhile.
Putajumperon please keep it. it’s real journalism about real people, I really liked the Jan Lohman story too. Hopefully when the other players read this they will have better memories than I and can fill out more details.
