yea like john Parkin has ever been a vegan.


He's even had cake named after him.

Gutted I missed today's Sun, sounds like a great story!


Didn't they chuck out some equal click-bait crap of the FGR players getting some sausage rolls from Greggs after we beat them in the play-off final?

Still will take something to beat the Daily Mail story about some Z-List Celeb stepping over a puddle that goes viral on Twitter every now and then.

Quoted from Chrisblor


No, because Forest Green's status as a vegan football club extends only to the food they sell at the ground. The players are allowed to eat whatever they want.


Well, well. Thank you Chris. I would never have guessed that in a million years and I am so grateful you pointed it out so nobody would think the players actually had to be vegans.   Perhaps I should make my little ironies more obvious in future or maybe not.

Didn't Steven Saunders wear vegan boots at Grimsby during the late 1980s? Think he was the very first footballer to do so.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Not sure about Saunders but I remember Neil Robinson (from the Dave Booth era) being the first prolific vegan/veggie to stand out in the team, possibly him?

That's the one Robo, getting the players mixed up. Definitely Neil Robinson. Saunders was the Eddie the Eagle lookalike.
