Hi Carolyn

Martyn,the someone Herridge?looks like Kevin Hurley(Turley) always knew him as Tubey,although he is from Crumlin/Newbridge way.I was at Crosskeys College with him in the mid 1970's Laughing

Hello Ian,
Its definetely Steve (stack)Herridge who sadly passed away a few months back.

Ian

I bow to your superior knowledge,two very similar looking people then.I couldn't work out why the other one wouldn't have been playing for Crumli/Newbridge youth.I guess this would have been the same age group as me,so my memory isn't what it was Laughing

Oh My!! That's sad to hear about Steve Herridge. Crying or Very sad

I hadn't heard about that. Sad

Seeing those pics don't half take me back some years!! I was in the same year group as most of these lads, Topper and Deano were in the same Form with me at Gelli - 3A!!
Woody I knew from Bryngwyn. Wonder if he thought the year we had at Gelli was the best though.
Cheers,
