I remember him walking around with a empty bucket and moving things around for stalls could be wrong  every summer I check man utd's transfers just in case.

crookesey   586 #6 Posted March 27, 2011 I saw him on Moor Head last week, I thought he always wore a referees outfit. Anyway he was using the F word at 20 to the dozen, but he didn't have anyone with him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

gina2007 Â Â 10 #10 Posted March 27, 2011 I think the council just move him around, between guest houses. I know when I was homeless (August 2008 ) he was staying in the Earl Marshall at Grimesthorpe, cause I had to move rooms (I was in a 'higher risk' one at first, 16 with a baby, so owner wanted me in the safest room!) for him as he came in the day after me.
