BasqueFromThe Past said:We used to joke about TD having World Championship bands sewn onto his club jersey sleeves. Massive ego: I mean he won the World Championships but the need to remind people years later on a club run?
TD - What a ****.. must of been from Staines or Feltham! I've just read the rest of the thread there wasn't too much good to be said about him..
So lesson to myself read thread before claiming kin!
Funny wondered how the mane came about because his real name is Nankerville as Wiki says his father was very famous in his timeBasqueFromThe Past said:BTW (unrelated trivia) Bobby Davro took his stage name from the shop - it was his father's shop originally and the shop's name was a combination of his two son's names David and Robert (Bobby)
"Davro's father, Bill Nankeville, was a runner; a British national mile and 1500m champion, world record holder, and represented Great Britain in two Olympic Games."
