The People's Hero Posted 9 January 2006 Share Posted 9 January 2006 Mark Morrison is from Leicester... dunno if he supports Leicester though. Paul Daniels lives in Oadby - he MUST be a city fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disillusioned Posted 9 January 2006 Share Posted 9 January 2006 Lembit Opik Lib Dem MP (patron of that other lost cause, Charles Kennedy). I wonder whether dishy weather girl wifey Sian will be in tow when he next visits The Walkers (2025 possibly)? Raising the tone of proceedings, high brow literary novelist Julian Barnes once claimed on 'Desert Island Discs' that Leicester winning the FA Cup was his life-long wish (must have been a long time ago that, when the competition meant something). And then there's that 'Oh No! it's Bill Maynard!', character actor and life-long friend of over-rated humper Frank Worthington. For the hoi poloi, run-of-the-mill Leicester based snooker player Willie Thorne (and best chum of Gary Lineker, who also likes to get down on the coloured balls) was occasionally spotted in front of a mike down at the old and new Filbo's (OK Gary was there too...) Knackered, hard drinking marginally successful 70's rock band Family came right of the closet about their love of City. Their compilation album (imaginatively entitled 'Best of Family') depicts the group togged out in Leicester kit in a fantasy match on the cover. I don't know if Patricia Hewitt has ever claimed allegiance to LCFC. If she ever does and you have the misfortune to live in her Leicester (East?) constituency make sure you vote for anybody but this awful New Labour spinnerette...
