Tommy Baron actually left Shopfitters and took over as Manager at Valley refrigeration in Rawtenstall, (who moved to Forest Mill in Bacup)I worked for Tom at Valley. Knew Ernie Crook and David Smith to but not that well, twas a quite big factory on the whole. Waterhouse died before I started, Mrs Waterhouse was always knocking about, but the big white chief CEO in those was David Dunn a big Rovers fan, he always came into the works on a Monday to have a natter about the weekends game with myself and another guy called Bill( can't remember his last name) his daughter was married to the then Rovers midfielder Amonn Rogers,
