Norman ran it before Terry B got involved (other than playing of course), but Norman had enough of the aggro he was getting (you'll probably relate to that John!) running the league and not being able to please everyone, plus he was getting ready for coming out of the pub. Organisation was not one of Terry's strong points was it!!
I'm like you John and put me cue down around the same time, never played a match since apart from a knockaround occasionally. Bumped into a couple of old pals a week or so back whilst out having an Indian meal, and they still play (Peel Park Pub), and asked if i wanted to pop up on Mondays nights, apparently its not required to sign on in that league now, and have a game, so might just give it a go, you never know. I think John Chapman and Steve Jukes still play up there if you remember them!
