Where are they now?

The following page contains information regarding chaps that we have lost touch with.

Paul Mitchell - aka Sponge

A legend in his own underpants and well known for large explosions in Sam Wellers toilets. Other claims to fame are the ability to vomit at will as our own Rog can testify and also a bloke by the name of Byron on an Ostend trip. Robotic dancing in Simberesque woolly jumpers was another speciality.

The name Sponge comes from Sam Wellers, when on hot and sweaty Sunday evenings Sponge was often furiously mopping his watered brow!!

Paul Pitt - aka Syrup

Slipped of the radar sometime ago after giving up his season ticket at the Villa. Last seen at Simber's wedding do and known to haunt the shadier parts of Northampton. The name Syrup derives from his 'magic mushroom' haircut of the early 80's and hence the reference to his barnet!!

Mark Kingston -  aka Noggin

Noggin has not been seen for sometime, although his wife Tracey has been spotted on numerous chap sessions. His claim to fame is some well known dodgy dancing, notably the WORM and the WINDMILL routines that have gone down in chap legend. He is also famous for relieving himself in handbags and throwing up on other peoples doorsteps.

Jim Mawhiney - aka Jimbers, Lombardo

Jim made famous the expression of 'Lombing' (falling asleep in the pub), as was his habit during many a chap session. He was also well known for his 'film buff' skills on the quiz machines and the 'Lombers swerve' on the pin ball machines.

Anne Gray - aka Big Anne

The only woman to gain full Chap status, what more can one say. Well known for her legendary Guinness drinking capacity and curry eating exploits.

John Warner - aka Chilcers

Brother of Beano, and one of the famous 'curry house front row'  well known for scrumming their way into curry houses of the Lozells Road, and for curry eating hat-tricks (Friday, Saturday & Sunday nights). John was also inspirational in the naming of Chap's cat 'Chilcers' (who incidentally is female !!!!).

John Jones - aka Jones the Pose or Nose

John was a well known member of the chaps during the mid to late eighties. Well known for his taste in gourish attire (leopard skin thongs, long black coats with bright red shoes, etc, etc), home brew capabilities, womanising (JPW was sponsored by NCP carparks !!!!), huge Union Jack and for snorting illegal substances off toilet seats in Sara Moons.

Gary James - aka Toupos, Touperman or Stuffed Shirt

Gary was famous for having a hairstyle that never went out of place, even in a force ten gale !!!!. It somewhat resembled a black furry mog asleep on his head, hence the nick name toupos and it's variants. His other claim to fame was staying faithful to a girl, who was sha??ing another bloke in the bathroom airing cupboard whilst Toupos was having a barfing session in the toilet of the same room !!!!!!.
