Corfu or Cyprus

Latest comment: 18 years ago3 comments1 person in discussion

I don't have access to the article referenced for Alan Knott living in Corfu; most website have him in Cyprus - including Cricinfo. Has he recently moved? Apepper 18:07, 27 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Further to the above, I've found an page about his family (alas, none of the women are called Shirley!) and it's pretty definite he lives in Paphos. There's a picture of him there for his 60th.

The link is http://www.pookpages.co.uk/brothers.htm.

I've changed the article to indicate Cyprus.

Cyprus seemed to have been reverted back to corfu; I've put it back and added some citations. I would suggest the citation given for Corfu was actually an error in the Guardian. Apepper 15:14, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

He always used to touch the stumps when he came out to bat. I've seen him do it many times many years ago, so It does seem relevant to mention it in this section. However, need a verifiable link. Anybody able to help please? 2A00:23C4:7227:2401:F903:4F14:6D85:20F7 (talk) 08:25, 21 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
