    It was David Fairclough who was always known as 'supersub, not Heighway.

    Apologies Duffens - in another response to you I got Heighway mixed up with Fairclough being known as Supersub.
    Daft old sod I am, but they did overlap a few years in their days at Liverpool

    Fairclough doesn't count anyway as he was a 'Ginner'.

    Wasn't Heighway known as Big Bamber because of his university education? Little Bamber was Brian Hall.

    Sorry for the double post. The first was sent in error.

    First time I heard it was in the Phil Silvers Show in the fifties, where I believe it was used to mean 'leave' (from the army)

    Paxo Paxman is the current boffin on UC. Bamber (Gazza's old man) was the 1st, but was there someone inbetween?

    BTW....I was on UC... '(insert name) from Hull. Reading gas meters.'
