The Provost of Fife ‘comes off the bench’
[Wednesday, 08 January 2014 11:49]
Somewhat disappointingly Frank McAvennie who was to be one of the line-up of speakers at the Annual Sportsmans Dinner in May contacted the club over the festive period to advise that due to commitments down south he would be unable to make it to Forfar.
However a very able substitute has been found in Dunfermline Athletic Chairman and the Provost/Bard of Fife Jim Leishman. Jim a much sought after entertainer at such events throughout Scotland compered the ‘Loons’ event quite a few years back, but has never actually been one of the main speakers
He will now join an impressive line up of John Gahagan and Yorkshire based comedian Gary Marshall on May 16th for what in recent times has been a sell-out success.
The compere for the evening will that other ‘famous’ son of Fife, our own Dick Campbell.
The normal information pack with regard to the event, ticket pricing etc will be forwarded to those on the mailing list in mid February.
