That company is a well known Heywood coach company. No association to F. Rothwell as far as I know and I probably first got on a Rothwells coach 30 years ago if not more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this brief interview may have arisen because perhaps Suzanne Geldard reads this board and felt a bit more inside-info was a good move to demonstrate Rothwell is aware of the recent fans' unease at the situation with the manager.

I'm not one to chant Frank's name at matches, but I'm grateful to him and his family for saving this club from who knows what. The general fanbase have shown what they think of him, and speaking to supporters of a local cub, they would love to have someone like Frank running their club.

Excellent reporter, very well respected and, of course, became editor of The Chron. I do miss The Chron (in paper format) it was about the only thing that held people like our local councillors to account. Sad when a town the size of ours loses its daily evening paper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
