Name that late-1960s choir leader

[Big Neville Southall]

Looks a character!!I remember Fozzie bear leader of the street end in the 1970's!!

Fozzie and Wurzel was one and the same person wasn't he?

I think Paddy White was the guy who was normally hanging off the stanchion in Gladwys St. back then, but, I don't remember him wearing a hat like that he did go to most of the always as well.

I remember a lad called Paddy who was prominent home & away 68-70. The era of the 'top lads' wearing black berets (after the US black power Olymic sprinters), blue power! Paddy disappeared for some reason? Simmo, Big John, Ammo, at least 2 Richie's (one being somewhat dangerous!) amongst others. 2 lads from Kirkdale/Scotty, Curro and Dave, sprayed painted their name & EFC across most of North Liverpool, made Banksy look like a no mark! There was another younger lad, also called Curro, who was a regular stood on the barrier. All regulars in the Winslow pre match.

Wasn't there a guy called Curro who used to stand right in the middle of the Street End hanging off the drainpipe ?

Edit... See others remember Curro and his oppo Dave too

There was hardly a bus in Liverpool back in the late 60's that didn't have Eggo and Curro written all over it. Happy days, it seems like yesterday.

What was his real name? I heard that it was Les, heard it was Jimmy, and also heard its Wally?

Have several extra marks for remembering the beret boys!

And, yes, that's my fallible memory of it - our choir-master, a witty and profane character of a man who provided such a great focal point at away games for the singers and flag-bearers, simply vanished. Ridiculous, but it's frustrated me for decades - what the hell became of him?
