Title: Guess the Sporting Personality 2
Post by: Somerled on July 28, 2013, 12:57:14 AM
Considerably easier than some of the other similar threads. And at great personal embarrassment.

With which famous Sporting Personality was I photographed at Gleneagles during Pro Celebrity golf in the early 1980's?

Others I remember being there were the likes of Ronnie Corbett and Kenny Lynch.

As a child I was continually mystified as to what the likes of Kenny Lynch and Lorraine Chase actually did as you only ever saw them on the likes of Blankety Blank or Pro Celebrity Golf.

I'll post the relevant pic when someone gets it right. yes or no answers only of course.

I can remember a few of these (sigh). If it was embarrassing I'm guessing it must be a celeb so I'll start off with a serious question.

Has the person in question been arrested as part of operation yewtree?

No, not a rugby player.

Golf would count as it is a sport which involves a ball. That's my definition of ball sport.

If golf is not a ball sport then I assume by definition cricket isnt either..Its not a Rugby player so cant think of many more ball sports


so its highly likely to be a footballer ?

Bryan Robson  ?

Not a team sport player.
