From the News of the World obituary:
Charlie Chester used to tell a very funny war-time story about Arthur: ‘When they were waiting outside Caen, Haynes pointed to a trench full of mud and a million tiny frogs and said that nothing would get him in there. With that a German aircraft started firing near them and Arthur dived straight into the trench and later emerged covered in mud and frogs!’ | | | |

That one is probably known to most on here. We've always punched above our weight in musician types, because we're such a cool team. I'd be pleased to interview him.
Rat Scabies springs to mind. |  | | |

Would have been President for last few years when we were laughing stock.
P.S. does your name refer to Authur Longbottom / Langley. |  | | |

I sense a QPR punk/indie band coming on:
Drums - Rat Scabies
Vocals - Pete Doherty
Bass - Glen Matlock
Just need a keyboard player and lead guitar. |  | | |

It does reference the legendary Arthur Longbottom whom I saw play for us although I can't remember it. I'd like to think he's still alive but I doubt it. | | | |
