    I think he claimed that it was him that agreed a deal to revert back...

     

    ..which surely means we lost out on sponsorship money.  Is that a positive?  Personally wouldn't care if the media had to call our ground Massive Bell End Park, if we were making money out of it.  Everyone that matters would still call it Boundary Park..

  2. On our way to Dave's funeral me and @leeslover were speculating about what music he'd picked for the service. (he was very proactive about putting his affairs in order when he was ill so we knew he'd have organised the funeral himself) Knowing he was a big Chris Rea fan i wondered if he'd gone for Road To Hell; leeslover agreed it couldn't be ruled out.

     

    The funeral was as emotional as you'd imagine; everyone had a lot of affection for him and his family were utterly devastated to lose him so young. He was a lovely bloke (if, according to his oldest mates, a tight arse) and his approach to his illness and making the most of what time he had left was, at the risk of being mawkish, inspirational. 

     

    He didn't go for Road to Hell as it turned out. We left the crematorium to the sound of Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gees. Rest in peace Dave you twisted get.
