    Not such a daft question - I used to live opposite Brian Glover (ex Featherstone Rovers, I think) - he still lives there. Kel Coslett lived a few doors down - but I was more interested in his daughters at that time! (I was only 8!!!).

    Used to get chased by John Mantle too - for cutting across his garden. But I was too quick for him (I wish!!)

    There was a Brian Glover used to play for Saints at centre for a short time. Think he either came from Warrington or went to Warrington. Some time in the 70s think he would struggle to play football now.

    both very good answers however as the previous two posts were about Kestrels ? and Brian Glover in the film "Kes" plays football with the kids, it is a natural assumption that its the one mentioned, oh and the Actor is dead now, really liked him as well.

    Brian Glover, St Helens chap, signed from Warrington. Now has a large beer belly on him; so no running now.

    When I was a kid his missus worked at the Ashe & Nephew in Lynton way shops, and some morons got caught trying to rob the place when she was working.

    It took more Police to keep him away from the robbers than it took to arrest them!

    Being honest now, if they stay true to the designs as per the pictures of the ground and the bridge with saints colours, this really will be the smartest rugby league ground going! Come on you Saints stadium!
