It was great to see the poster from the Fairfield Halls where I held a weekly season ticket for the Tuesday night wrestling for many years. Believe it or not I actually remember the Les K v Johnny Y main event that night which Les won after his famous trick in the ropes. When he appeared to be disappearing through the ropes Yearsley turned his back on him and raised his arms in triumph - bad mistake as Les bounced back into the ring (of course) and got the winning fall. Being a naïve 18 year old at the time I thought that was very silly of Yearsley, until I realised a few years later that it was in the script.
I know forum members will have seen the same trick from Les hundreds (thousands?) of times but that night stuck in my mind. 54 years ago, oh dear!
