You're correct with them (on my list anyway :thumbup: ), it started with Cliff Morgan and Henry Cooper I'm certain of.
I have 14 names if all correct just two footballers short.

Others as I remember are Frankie Dettori, Ian Botham, Brendon Foster & John Parrott.

Correction I have 13.

Of the footballers one must have been early doors, 3rd & 4th on the list similar era to Emlyn Hughes ?

The other between or against Bill Beaumont & Willie Carson.
