FAQ


Great idea. I can think of a few more:

- What's Danny North up to these days?
- Why don't we give away free tickets to the Osmond?
- Why don't we sell fish and chips?
- When are the playoff games?

Why are our highlights such poor quality?

Quoted from biggles9999


Wasnt he involved with a consortium trying to buy Leicester City at one point? Edit: He was back in 2002 along with Lineker.

He was certainly on the board for a group called London United which was backing the 2018 World Cup bid and was set about to develop all of the infrastructure that would be needed for the hosting in and around London.


I seem to think the Leicester consortium was more of a business interest, probably keeping cute with the other consortium members.

London United sounds exactly like a business venture.  Developing of all that infrastructure would have been a huge contract.

The point is that he's obviously not interested in having any involvement in GTFC and that's his choice.  Anyone hoping he's going to come in on a Carphone Warehouse emblazoned chariot and overthrow the evil Fenty is sadly going to be very disappointed.

I think David Ross might be an even better person to ask.


Now come on Rodley, just because you live in Leeds doesn't mean you can't have a sense of humour.

I swear many moons ago he offered to take over the club and Fenty refused (back when we was a couple of divisions higher)

It's been stated he has great infinity with the club due to his fathers love of the club but why oh why will he not help us in this dark time


Yes his dad was a big fan, I knew John and he was a decent bloke, not sure if he ever had thoughts of running the club though.

I know the reason for that, they get a big pad of paper, then scribble little figures in the corner then play it back by flicking quickly through the pages.

Although I understand they are going Hi Def soon by getting a better HB pencil.

Then it's a HD pencil, surely?

I consider it a sign of recent improved morale on The Fishy that this thread topic hasn't been posted for quite a few months.

Sort of connected to this, I recently met a business colleague of Mike Parker, who should also be the subject of threads like this.  I asked if Parker left because he fell out with Fenty and this guy gave me a knowing look and said "I can't possibly comment".
