Perhaps the best person to answer that question Pete is Town's majority shareholder.

I wouldn't expect an answer anytime soon though!

Does he even support or have an interest in Town, or even football for that matter?  I'm sure he's a rugby man.

Wasnt he involved with a consortium trying to buy Leicester City at one point? Edit: He was back in 2002 along with Lineker.

He was certainly on the board for a group called London United which was backing the 2018 World Cup bid and was set about to develop all of the infrastructure that would be needed for the hosting in and around London.

Ask any man what nationality he would prefer to be, and ninety nine out of a hundred will tell you that they would prefer to be Englishmen.
