Sadly he gave up his career because It would be frowned upon for him to be a celebrity or a well paying job. ( Education and worldly careers are frowned upon). Prince gave up his fame too when he converted. Peter would be taught by the JWs that he would see the siblings who had passed away when they would be resurrected in paradise after armageddon. However they would need to accept Jehovah and all his rules etc. If they didn’t accept it then they would die again! Everything is conditional. Peter would have been told that he would have see armageddon ( it’s always just around the corner). armageddon didn’t come as prophesied by the Jws in 1975, and it still hasn’t happened and it’s now 2024. Sadly so many people stay in the JW religion due to fear mongering. They live in fear daily of the end of the world and they miss out on soo many adventures because of the indoctrination.

My Great Great Grandfather was called William "Willie" Quinn he was the trainer of Celtic from 1911 to 1923. He left and came back in the 30s. Became the groundsman and trainer. My Grandad who is nearly 94 years old used to pick litter in the stand in the 30s with his Uncle Charlie who was the groundsman after Willie. My Grandad has one of his Scottish cup winners medals from the 30s too. I love that I have some family history tied to Celtic. But I, myself is a Manchester United supporter.

What a trailblazer! To be lauded by Herb Chapman as a player and to have coached on 3 continents. In a time where most men did not see 40. His gift of sharing his footballing knowledge worldwide has surely had ripple effects throughout the game. Thanks for telling his story Finners. Thanks for writing his story Luciano. Keep up the great work lads.

A very nice family and community oriented club. The infrastructure improvements will come with time. Shame that a small piece of the billions from the EPL does not trickle down to the lowest levels where it is needed most. Ahh the joys of unmitigated greed. Still a great ground and video. Please have Tomaldo double check you sat nav entry prior to departure henceforth. Good to see Billini enjoying a day out. Keep up the great work Finners.

Bertie Mee was a physiotherapist before he became our club manager, taking over Billy Wright. We lost in two league cups, but we landed Fairs cup in 69-70 and then the Doubles in 70-71. Arsenal 70-71 doubles squad Wilson, Rice, McLintock(C), Simpson, McNab, Armstrong, Storey, Graham, George, Radford and Kennedy.

Just watched your video. I'm a Walsall fan myself and agree with most of your thoughts. However, where did you park? And how did you end up walking next to the railway line in the undergrowth? As far as I'm aware, wherever you park, there is no way you needed to go this way lol. Tip: Google Maps 😅

People have careers who are jehohva witnesses so why not football Peter would talk of the if broke someones leg playing and ending there career he couldn't live with that well he ended his own career by choice the others a maybe well wolves held out for as long as possible even for months laying is kit every home game hoping he'd come to his senses in the end went and bought jim McCalliog from Sheffield wednesday to replace him sad loss to the game respect for his decision all those years ago

Your channel, your choice. Personally I thought it was a better spectators ground than Pershore. But that's from someone who likes standing at football games. Many grounds at this level that are falling apart and not great for spectators. I'm sure they'll get permission for the new stand Keep the reviews coming 👍
