He lives locally, we are probably his nearest league club.


I think he was saying he was going to build a big covered stand on the North side and re-build the home and away ends so that the fans can have their h/t drinks and pies in a comfortable suite with armchairs and sofas ;) ;) ;)

i have a lot of respect for him with how he dealt with them two Leeds United fans being murdered

as soon as he was told about the incident when them two Leeds fans had been repeatedly stabbed to death where one later on died in hospital

the first thing he did while having a meal was to go straight to the hospital genuinely concerned where he also had to help identify one of the body's

now Peter Ridsdale was genuinely effected and then went to the police station to demand action

and to be honest i really doubt many premiership club chairman now would have done the same

If P/R got his hands on MFC then no need to worry about

relegation to the conference, survival of the club on the other hand,
at least he would not be on a hat trick, he's already got there, not many have screwed up 3 clubs
ps Dawzi I do take your point re his genuine concern re the 2 leeds fans in Turkey though, he did a good job re that incident
