Hello Eddy (Nesbitt),

Thank you for the name - it's much appreciated.

Here is a side-by-side image showing Maxie Walsh 30 years ago, and the mystery man, about 18 years ago.
Tom Dobson thinks the mystery man looks like Gordon Greenwood.
Can anyone confirm who the mystery man is?

Maxie-Walsh-Gordon-Greenwood-mix

Cheers,
Barry.

Hello Eddy (Nesbitt),

Thank you. I've changed the name of the pic to:

'Tom Dobson thinks this might be Gordon Greenwood, and Eddy Nesbitt thinks it might be Maxie Walsh's brother.'

Cheers,
Barry.
