Not being a soccer fan, I had no idea what all the fuss was about and had to move quickly to bring myself up to speed to come up with a few evocative ideas having very little to do with soccer or the merits and esteemed lineage and of this fine club and its players.

I was also interviewed for a Birmingham radio show. though if that interview aired I never heard it.

It was all in good fun, and got some people seriously confused as I received a few emails either vilifying or praising me as they thought I was the other Doug Ellis with actual plans for the club.
