Meant to post this the other day and not seen anything on here about Frank Rothwell is rowing 3000 miles from Canary Islands to Antigua to raise awareness for Alzheimer’s disease which is horrendous condition and it effects thousands of families. He has set up just giving page for donations. I remember him being interviewed during a Oldham game at halftime and as they ask him a question he bursts out laughing about the rags getting beat 3-0 at halftime made me roar with laughter. Anyway I’ve donated £10 and I hope you city fans can help out with any donations for a good cause.

Second time he's done it I believe.
Think the family are blues and he's talked about having a hospitality season ticket here in the past but gave it up because he didn't like the way he was treated.
That interview where he takes the piss out of the rags is a belter!

Was on Granada News at weekend, about half way through his trip. Great cause and he seems a character.

It's an extreme way of getting away from Ice Station Zebra at this time of year !
Hats off to him though, it's a great effort for a very worthy cause.

Well done to Frank.He arrived in Antigua yesterday three weeks later to what he'd hoped to.
