Bob Houghton ended up in India managing their national side until 2012. Colin Toal is in India and a recent on line Interview mentions Bob. Here is the original photo followed by one of a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redmike Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 As someone who worked at the club at the time, and was treated by him, I can assure you 100% it was Bill Heatherb(Physiology). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall he was assistant coach but thought his hair was light coloured, voluminous and frizzy, not as per the first photo. The mystery bench warmer also doesn't look like the modern image if that's supposed to be the same bloke ( first photo the geezer has a high forehead unlike the modern version which although years later shows a touch of widow's peak.) If the first pic was 81/82 I still think it might be Tainton wearing glasses. He had quite a high forehead but combed his hair down one side.
