Darn you, it took me longer to come up with the anagram than it took you to solve it ...
 Correct, Mith. Your thread.

Take it as a compliment - it was a clue that "followed the rules" perfectly which made it easy for someone who knew the rules and had been around long enought to be aware of a MIA downer with an eyesplitting name.
As ever it will be a hard act to follow... One for Downers of a certain age perhaps.... The Downs' answer to John McEnroe?

John MacEnroe is a Tennis player, isn't he?
So... The Tennis Ball Kid ?

You were on the right path Bethberry but drawn the wrong conclusions...
Beleg I don't know who you mean but I mean (oops) John McEnroe, three time Wimbledon champion.
