    Where did you work with him ?
    We knew him from College and then he went on to set his own business up, can't for the life of me think what it was, I think it was Photography or something similar.
    Nice lad, great personality and a Miller through and through.
    My mistake, same surname no relation, sorry for bothering you enjoy the rest of the weekend with your kids.

    Provided you have got the right surname (Town on Angelsey) then as far as we are aware there's only us but spread far and wide.

    Stendel on arrival in england went out to a Barnsley town centre pub to watch the England world cup games and meet the fans and get a feel for the area , he even wore a German shirt , he was very well received as you can imagine .

    Many things the club could do better but we are one of the better clubs who support community projects and its an ongoing process .
    Key words there are "contractually obliged".

    They have to force the poor pampered millionaires to do a couple of hours community work a month.

    It's arranged that way so that every player does his bit and it's not the same two or three getting out there all the time .

    If the players have a problem with it then they don't have to sign for us , we aren't Real Madrid .

    You're a socialist animal, do you think it's fair that the players are on thousands a week and most of the rest of the staff are on peanuts?

    In an ideal world the paramedics who saved Stephen's life yesterday would be on 5k a week and the footballers would be on £500 .

    The world doesn't work that way though does it and it never will .

    Used to be like that though, Barnsley and Rotherham players used to work down the mines in the week and play on Saturday.

    Not that far back but I don't think they should be paid more than £100,000 a year for kicking a ball around a bit of grass.
