From memory, 22ft 2 1/4 world record won her the Olympic Gold Medal in 1964.
I had the hots for her…RIP Mary.

I was too young to appreciate the 64 Olympics. My first Athletic lustings were on Lillian Board.

RIP. Excellent player. Sad story with his cancer diagnosis and his wife’s depression and death. Feel for the children.

Yes gutted, I got a message about an hour ago from the OS ex team manager asking if I knew what happened but it was the first I’d heard about his passing.
Lovely man, a very handy winger in his day too.
RIP Geoff.

It is always possible he got the news and decided that that was the time to go and if he did get the news he would have gone happy.

Yeah, I heard on the day he hadn’t been able to go and one of my old team mates Gordon Cheeseman had stood in for him. I thought it must have been serious for him not to be able to go.
