Identifying artists of British sport comics

Any sports comics experts here?

Does anyone know the name of the artist who drew the features "The Tough Game" and "File of Fame" in Tiger in the early 1980s? (I'm almost certain that the artist of the two strips are one and the same.)

And who were the artists of "The Marks Brothers" and "The Footballer Who Wouldn't Stay Dead" in the Roy of the Rovers comic book?


Thank you in advance,

- Both were drawn by James Bleach

Many thanks!

I'll surely be back with more questions.

Another one, who did "Kamikaze Kid", the strip about the speedway star Steve Richmond, from DC Thomson?
