Yes, the great... Ken was when I was the captain of the club.

When the lads had moaned, I'd write, he'd say, we need more tickets for a cup final, this, that, the other.

Go up and see Ken.

You knock on Ken's door.

Mr Fryer, I'd like to come in and say, come in, David.

And he'd start telling you jokes.

Then he'd start telling you this.

Then you...

you forgot what you were going to sell.

And then when you'd come out, Ken would always say this thing, leave her with me.

So I'd go with the lads.

I'd go back to the lads and achieve nothing.

I'd achieve, I'd absolutely achieve nothing with them.

So I went in, Gary, and Ken said, sit down.

He gave me a drum roll of this and played 40 games, this, that, and the other.

I'm on 100 quid a week and I'm thinking,

I'm going big time.

The lads had told me, really go for it, you know, the whole lot.

So after about 25 minutes, Kevin said, David, we're prepared to raise your salary from £100 to £110.

Ten quid, right.
