       Yes, but if he was not going any further up the ladder, that is
       to be an EFL referee, then 42 was the age he would have come off
       the contributory system (NPL and EFL) in those days. Good to
       hear that Keith may still be around and living in Kendal, and I
       wonder whether anybody reading this thread in Cumbria may still
       be in touch with him.

       I can confirm Keith is very much alive and kicking and living in
       Kendal. We often bump into each other when walking our dogs.
       Fairly recently widowed, he spent many years involved in
       administration in local football, as well as serving on the
       committee of the local Netherfield Cricket Club where he often
       does a stewards duty behind the bar. Although he is not Irish he
       generally greets you with the words “And the top of the morning
       to you”. Lovely guy.

       Do make him aware of these posts when you next bump into him.
       Sounds quite a character.
