I got to know him because I was at UEA back then and drank there alot...

but Roger Simmons for us always knew him, he does a huge amount of stuff for sports, not sure he likes people pointing it out mind. Very very decent chap. Back in the day when dad played for CEYMS with roger apparently Mal was a decent player. Roger Simmons playing Small, what a sight, honestly, a bloke who should have played real county cricket. At 61 still goes and gets centuries!
