A lieutenant of the moor.

Found Dan Heath, a goalkeeper (Lieuteneant Dan are a covers band, Moor = Heath). Bit obscure though so unlikely.

It's not Dan Heath but good try.

Well in the US a lieutenant can be a police officer, which we call a Bobby. Moor sounds like Moore so I'll give Bobby Moore a go with zero confidence.

Dismissing Heath as a surname then, my other line of thought was lieutenant is abbreviated Lt, add 'on' to make Elton someone as it's a we hear clue we now know?

Apologies for the late addition of the 'we hear' which applies to the entire answer technically, not just one of the names. And it's a borderline 'we hear' which probably explains why I forgot to add it to the clue.

It's not Bobby Moore but, again, good guess.

That's all I can come up with.

Victor somebody quite possibly...or Michael someone.....
Ignazio

Following your train of thought TC I thought Michael or Victor Bandy.

Sadly if they exist at all it's not on the sports pages.
Terrence Chant
29-08-2011
Could be a cowboys name that makes the last syllable I guess....think we need an extra hint!
