I'm fairly certain that someone/some organisation is doubling it all up - assuming at the end? The 1st team home hadn't even got to 6 figures when they hit dry land and there were 5 of them rowing ha ha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The list of better places than Antigua to recover at this time of year is a very short list. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniel Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Chadderton FC have announced free admission for their home game on Saturday, 3pm kick off. They will instead be taking donations for Frank’s row across the Atlantic. A great gesture by them, and with us having a late kick off, hopefully a few latics fans will attend. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
