Used to present World of Sport many years ago (pioneered a more muted
Kevin Peitersen skunk-type silver streak through his hair)...., which
of course you couldnt possibly remember as you are only.. um... 17 or

There are two:
1. The presenter of ITV's World Of Sport in the 70s/80s
2. A football reported on Sky

Never heard of the Sky reporter, but the ITV guy's name is spelled Dickie

No, it's not the same guy. The Sky guy appears invision at times on Soccer
Saturday. Although, I believe that Dickie 'WoS' Davies did present a show on
Sky Sports years ago.
Couldn't see owt at your link.

He crops up occasionally on 'blooper' type programmes for a memorable
