Celeb Fans

Post by longlivethecrumbie »

One of the more prevelant Twitter accounts has asked fans to post names of any famous supporters of the teams they support. Nobody has suggested any famous Tigers fans. Anyone have any idea if we even have any?

I did read somewhere that Gino D'Acampo is a Tigers fan, but not sure how much truth there is in that.

I'm not 100% sure, but I believe Ed Stafford is a fan.

OK, I have to say this and the I'll leave it to others.
Anti - social media and "celebrities" - can there be any thing more representative of the malaise in modern society? The revering of the shallow, the meretricious and the barely talented.

I would hope that a Tigers' crowd would treat "celebrities" with the indifference they deserve - we have rugby to watch.

Tom Hopper is supposed to be a Tigers fan.

Waiting for the world to change
Beginning to wonder if we'll wait in vain

Jack Hartley is a long-standing fan and attends most games - before anyone asks who is he - my grandson has the answer.
