Well done to this lad because it is a remarkable achievement. On a similar theme does anyone remember Action Group chairman, Dave Dewberry doing a sponsored walk to raise funds for Hull City?
He, and I think a couple of others walked around the perimeter of the Boothferry Park pitch non stop for 24 hours, ending just before the kick off of a home game. I forget which game it was. The club were famously on the edge of bankrupcy at the time and although the Action Group was at odds with the clubs ownership it was Dave's idea to offer an olive branch by doing this sponsored walk. He completed it too, telling me the club didn't even offer him a cup of tea or any encouragement at all, even showing him to a door when he completed the walk, which led him outside so that he had to pay to get back in to watch the game.
It's the little things that you remember.
Wonder where he is these days?
