The Pervert

By El Patron -

imageI remember one time there was almost a hysteria on the estate as some girl had spread a rumour that she had been confronted by a pervert. I cannot remember what this pervert was supposed to have done BUT it did inspire groups of young lads, myself included, to “hunt for the pervert”.

For a few days in the deepest darkest winter these boy-gangs roamed the estate and indeed we caught sight of a pervert – or we thought we did and then gave chase. Of course we never found a pervert and the hysteria died down after 2-3 days when no corpse was forthcoming. Anyone else remember this? It only happened once in my recollection but happen it most certainly did.

    I think that at the time you were hiding in your fucking den constructed under the map at Studdon Walk in front of the flats.

Here is a photo I found during more extensive research in a library... I remember the football team played for the 'Bagnall Cup' and played 'derbys' v St Cuthbert’s and also v Mountfield, North Fawdon, Wyndham, Montague and Snow Street (we and everyone else always thrashed Snow Street at least 12-0-their home pitch was at an angle of 45 degrees...) Note the' flag pennants' which were inspired by the Leeds United strip from the 1973-74 season on the socks of some of the kids in the front row...these had the numbers of the players on. the 10 first team players are all wearing the blue top with yellow hoop:the' subs' are wearing... whatever! It looks like they must have won the Bagnall cup that year! Anyone recognise themselves or any of the players?... (The tecka is Mr Brownlaw, a true gentleman...)
