I have the programme for that match so the chances are that I was at the game.Have no recollection of that incident though.My guess would be that he was protesting about having to watch the R ‘s at that arxxhole of a ground every week.
The fella who tried to grab the Northampton player was one of ours and a huge fan of Mark Lazarus. A Northampton player had committed a dreadful foul on Lazarus. So he ran onto the pitch to try and confront the player. Lazarus knew the fan socially, and said he was so surprised to see him on the pitch, as he was normally a polite, quiet well mannered chap.
I’ve never seen that picture before, but Lazarus told myself and Steve Russell that story when we spoke to him about fifteen years ago.
I was told that the rangers fan in question was named John Kennedy and from Ladbroke Grove.He was well known to many of the older fans but i cant place the guy.
I think you’ve got him. One of the Kennedy’s from the family out of Notting Hill. They used to travel on the same train as the players to away games. I think that’s how he knew Mark, as the fans and players would play cards together on the train.
