Pretty sure he was(is?) an Old Town fella. Regular in the Beehive/Vic.

This may be stating the bloody obvious, but aren't our email addresses stored somewhere on here, could the mods check to see if that gives a clue as to Reg's identity?

Also he may have signed up with a created specifically for his name generic email address as many new member do to hide their identity.

This thread makes me sad for various reasons.

It’s bizarre in sense.
We are talking about a bloke we’ve all conversed with frequently for anything up to at least 15 years. A bloke which a lot of us have meet in the pub. Yet, it’s bizarre that despite all that no one can seemingly properly track him down.

Obviously we’ve had TEFers pass before but we were outright informed.

No mobile phone, no social media - that such Regness in itself.
I’m not sure if outright knowing it better than forever guessing whether Reg just logged off and never back or not.

Obviously it goes without saying it would be a massive shame if he has indeed passed.

I am pretty sure I was introduced to Reg at a "Turkey Breast Quiz" at the supporters club when I was on the L&P team and I vaguely remember him being called Andy and having a full head of jet black hair, in his early 60s I would say, back in 2009.

One thing is for certain, the legend of Reg will continue far into the future.

I emailed him when he first went dark, though sadly to no avail. And as PV guessed, his email is meaningless sadly.

Only Bazzza can do that now.

Are you telling me you administalkers have not found the way around my pathetic "hack" yet?

Just had a thought. Six degrees of separation and what not...

When I met Reg in Northampton I also met Dexter/Dexeeto then latterly Strooood (I think his username changed to)... He told me a knew Reg when I said I was shocked he was real. Said he'd always known him, and didn't realise he was Reg Smeeton. He was a friend of his Dad's or something.

Now I could be wrong, but I think Bushy was friends with Strooood and a few people know Bushy...

Dex & Bushy we’re indeed pre-forum friends.

We still have Stroooood's details in the DB, so I've emailed him. The email hasn't bounced back, so perhaps we'll get nearer the truth.

I’ve dropped a message to ash, and a couple of others plus a text to a number I had for dex. Will let you know

Nice one. Hopefully someone hears something soon.
