“Bloom saved the club from extinction in 2009”. What?
Absolutely Dick Knight and Tony Bloom have equal legend status for me. Dick Night’s and Martin Perry’s absolute unwavering commitment to getting us permission for a stadium, while also keeping us afloat unbelievable achievementPiss poor. There is no doubt that Dick saved the club from extinction.
