Announced tonight that the Duke of Westminster has passed away

Damn, I thought he was favourite to lead a takeover bid! Did he ever actually attend a game?

Apologies for my flippancy in the event that anyone on here actually knew him. Or even met him.

Distasteful comment Keith...........

Not to my knowledge he didn't Keith, no.

Still, Jim Bowen only attended games that were featured on tv so he could get some publicity (Cambridge and Ipswich)

Pot. Kettle. Black.

P.S. Not distasteful Keith. A genuine question. I think we always hoped for a bit of cash from him.

Obscenely wealthy. A sad loss for his family but apologies if I don't doff my cap. He was always generous with various charities I'm involved with. Only cheques I'd seen that had a personal stamp rather a signature. Allegedly lost £1 billion of his wealth after the Brexit vote.
