Denis Foreman of BHA , Sussec ccc and Hove Montefiore. Coloured South African, as they were called by the Apartheid regime in the 50's. Settled above Portslade Village. Wife and I met him in the park there 4 years ago. Lovely man. Proud of his 69, I think, goals for Brighton. This article says he was seriously ill 4 years ago. Anyone know about his health?

Steve Piper! Now there was a player. I'm sure I saw him burst the net with a shot in the south goal one time.

Think him and his wife split, which happens quite often with publicans, I think that she still runs the pub but wont swear to it.

Pleased to say I met him in Easthill Park Portslade last summer and although walking with a stick seemed fine. I was there with my 7 year old Grandson kicking a ball about and he approached us when he saw he was wearing an Albion shirt.
A really lovely fellow and although I can just remember seeing him play in about the early 60's he was such an interesting chap to talk to, with loads of stories about some of the other players and management of that time and I could have chatted for hours. Certainly not a big, look at me, type but seemed genuinely fond of the Albion. He told me he had been to the Amex and still followed the team.

I have it on good authority that Barry Lloyd lives in a tree house at the university end of Stanmer Park. he built it with his sister in law, Sheila. It's got a rope ladder and window made out of old carpet. Snug.
