Here he is, front & centre in his cream jumper, at Trafalgar Square getting some promo shots -
There’s also video of him steaming into the middle of Omar Bogle’s interview after the PO Final, jumping around like an anus on live TV. Couldn’t find that one though.
He couldn’t even get the tune right to the Omar Bogle song, the daft pillock
Through the door there came familiar laughter, I saw your face and heard you call my name. Oh my friend we're older but no wiser, For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
If the cameraman had waited 10 minutes he would have seen JF scale the column and push Nelson off to take his place.
And why not?! John wouldn’t have wasted so much gunpowder as Nelson and he’d have halved the grog ration.

It makes me flipping sick, that day at Bournemouth was horrendous, I was stood there in shock at the back of the stand. Every time we’ve had any success on the pitch like the cup wins or that play off final, he’s been out there like he’s score the winner. Classless girl private! I know the players and staff took the urine at the time. I remember him coming out to the fans before the Tranmere game when we got relegated. I don’t remember him coming out at the end or a Burton.

Will you please not mention that Tranmere game.
It's easy to figure out the reasons for his appearance at one and non appearance at the other. At Tranmere we were safe and it would take a number of things happening for us to get relegated, as it happens they did. At Burton we were down unless a miracle occurred, it didn't. So he took to the pitch to bask in the limelight at Tranmere because he wanted to appear as the saviour, surely there was no way we were going to get relegated and he could justify the appointment of Nicky Law. At Burton there was no limelight, we were going out of the league and it was his fault. Time to hide and hope something would distract the fans, as it happens it did with the trouble caused on the pitch by idiots.
And when you fall back into the mud it hurts a lot. No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all. All that was really there was still more misery
Fellipe, you said As a club we could not deny supporters wishes to do what they wanted. - reply 159 this thread
Can you now answer my questions which were 'So if the supporters money was not needed why did he accept it ? So why did the budget need enhancing, surely JF should have had the funds to enhance the budget for promotion . Given that JF accepted the money why didn't he suggest that he would return the money to the fans ?'
I’ll happily answer that question.
The club had always provided a highly competitive NL budget, capable of gaining promotion. How many times had our budget got us into the play offs?
The additional funding was offered to the club in addition to the budget we had in place already. It was accepted as a kind and enthusiastic gesture by the fans, in a manner of good faith and appreciation by the club. As icing on the cake to a budget that had already proven to get us on the verge of promotion, albeit apart from some unfortunate play off outcomes. The Bristol Rovers game in particular
