To be fair that’s the Sky interviewer saying Ricoh.

To be rebranded in Red Bull kits like Leipzig and Salzburg? Hard pass.

Never heard of Horner attending a game. And Jordan flip-flops between us and Man Utd depending on what day it is.

This guy picked us when he was at Loughborough Uni in the 90s (over Leicester) and has shown more love for the club than either of the other two (in my opinion). Not sure what the occasion was but this looks to be our 2015/16 top.

I put something about this in the F1 thread, trying to work out why he chose us. Best guess is with Leicester being relegated in 94/95 he wasn't going to support them but Forest (who finished 3rd) were out the question with all the Leicester fans around him so he went for us (who finished a mightily impressive 16th). @Sky_Blue_Dreamer mentioned our links to the motor industry as well.

I suspect the F1 thing has a fair bit to do with the close locations of many of the team set ups having headquarters between Cov & Oxford, and with many of the technical crew originating from Cov, with our traditional connection to the motor industry.

Given that Latibeaudiere had an F1-themed birthday party earlier this month (with Haji etc also in attendance), surely someone can get him an introduction?
