Anyone know him in real life, or known him at any stage in his 30-odd years of season ticket holding?
Can anyone put a real name to the forum character?
My logic in asking this question will become apparent.
Don't go off on one Baldy, it's nothing nasty. Perhaps you could help in the search yourself?

When I meet people I matched I never say 'oh I'm kid in the riot by the way, nice to meet you!'.
Perhaps I've talked to people before but I'd never know it

Question could be asked as to why people post under a "nom de plume" and not under their real name.

Certainly if you know anyone well or over a long period of time you would be aware of their forum identity.

I've met Yellowhoods. It was like meeting Leonardo Dicaprio's twin sister brother......

Nope. No idea who he is. More and more he posts on here the more and more I think he's just trolling.
I always mention who I am on here to people I met in real life. If they don't like what I post on here that's fair enough, i'd rather they said!

I'm just interested to find out a bit more about the poster who is called Baldy. I have suggested, in all seriousness, we meet for a drink before a home game as I'm genuinely interested in making his acquaintance. Baldy has clearly read the invite, but not responded, just as he's not responded to others' requests to meet previously. Why? He attends home games and is clearly not a shrinking violet. Why not have a pint with me? Just got me wondering whether he's the genuine article or, as Bob suggests, a troll The ball's firmly in Baldy's court. How this could be interpreted as an attempt to belittle him is beyond me. Only a psychotic fool could think it is.
