Happy days, when life was simple. Spent a few years travelling, watching Stu and his amazing driving. Wainman and Wolfenden were the opposition, but they were all great to watch.

I remember this well at the time I was playing for Nelson Cricket Club. Because the M65 went through the old pavilion, they had a new one built, so they came out of it well.

2006 was a great year for Blackpool lights. Wish Pig Palace came back.

Though I’ve only walked around many places shown here in 2019 Yet at age 69 I can fairly gauge the nostalgic feel from these lovely photos 😂 Past may be another country but it lives and flourishes in us deep down inside till we live Well done dear Soon I’ll back to Manchester and this place is my priority to explore and appreciate Love and prayers

When the daily mirror was printed in Manchester the horse racing tipster was called longsight..!

Great video. I worked with Les at Argos around 98-99, really nice guy.

Brings a lump to my throat. Great times in 1970s Manchester.

Those were the days, real stock cars and big crowds.

Great video Les. Recognised some places Dave T #21

I went to Crowcroft Park school from 1959-1966, when Miss Tumelty was the Headmistress. We spent countless hours playing in Crowcroft Park and would roam all over during the Summer, with no problems. All these scenes are very familiar.

I love this mate, so melodic & great words.. you got talent brother👌👏

What an amazing song mate 5* and complemented by emotional video.. god knows why this aint got tens of thousands of 👍

I remember the 'Ohhhh Nooo' and 'It's a goal' for the footy. 99% of the time 'Ohhh no' was for City. Used to dread that one 😂

Personally I was a massive Len Wolfenden fan 190.......... But Stu Smith was the Governor......LEGEND

I used to go to the International II which was around the corner from some of these photos.

Great memories .I lived on chipstead walk.

Wow, im 18 and have lived in Longisght all my life, went to stanley grove, quite cool to see how Stockport rd, crowcroft park, stanley grove used to be, hasn't changed much but has a nice vibe to it!

We lived on Mellor road off Slade Lane.....

Rip Nigel Pearson. Amazing commentary always sadly missed xx

Longshight

In hindsight , they should have bull-dozed Nelstan at the same time.

My auntie had a hairdressers on the corner of Homings Road many years ago, remember visiting her as kids and playing football against the big side wall, sadly she passed away about 7 years ago.

They missed a bit of Nelson. Never mind, get it next time.

Well done Les, keep up the good work, hope you and family are well,

Big improvement

Good Greif - I got a mention!!! 🙂

Stu, the best driver ever, I even named my son after him.

Good one Les, keep up the good work, Pete Kenny,

Listening to him makes me feel guilty for throwing an apple core at him when I was a snotty kid. Lovely interview.

All that beautiful countryside gone😢

My dream race transporter a coach these days with a historic stockcar in the back a nash stockcar!

This is when racing was racing

I love this , spend a lot of time on the NLS site tracking old roads and trying to find out what used to be there … Can anyone point me to more motorway building videos
