Alan Ball Soccer Ltd<\/strong> was set up to ensure that Alan Ball would always be remembered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alan Ball was a very good friend  and since his death I have stayed friends with his former colleagues and acquaintances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 40 years of doing sportsman’s evenings, Peter Osgood and Alan Ball were 2 of the best on the circuit. On many occasions I had them on together. Never once did they let me down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below are just 2 of those evenings, the 2nd image also shows one of “Bally’s favourite comedians “Jackie Hamilton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picture 3  off the pitch shows “Bally” doing something he loved, making people laugh, also updating on the values of life.<\/p>\n\n\n

When Lesley died Alan was heartbroken, a few weeks prior to Alan’s wife’s death I had Alan on in Maghull. I put Alan and Lesley up at Holland Hall, when my driver picked up Alan from Holland Hall, to take him to the venue in Maghull, to their surprise and as a thank you to Lesley she was presented with a massive bunch of flowers to show our appreciation.<\/p>\n\n\n
