I did google him and I'm sorry to say I have never heard of him.

Aah

"On Saturday at five to three
There's only one place to be
Down at the Moss Lane football ground
The team come out, the crowd all roar
We come win lose or draw
The only team for me is Altrincham FC
Oh the Robins aren't Bobbins says me
The Alty!”

a legend I've never heard of. I'm sure I'd remember his face if I'd met him

wont they just get another guy to wear the costume?

[jb190281]

he was a legend in his own circles, but i must admit, his paper mache head used to freak me out as a child!

[bigfoot3000]

I always thought he was a comedian? He used to wear that creepy paper mache head and talk with a scary buzzing lisp.

how sad, even though he was a sandwich short of a picnic, he was sort of funny in his own way

RIP FS

Did anyone ever visit that Manchester megastore?

[MarkRae]

Blimey! I saw him live quite recently - he was supporting John Cooper Clarke...

i think he was more a northern and local thing.

i met him a few times in his human form - and had no idea it was him til the third time - haha
