HugeChin Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 I was reading my match programme from the Newcastle game in 2002 and there is an interview in it with a guy called Lee Grooby. I'm sure I've seen Grooby mentioned on this forum but there is no member with that name. Is he on here under another name?

T4E Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 He's just called Lee on here. I'm not sure if it has a hidden meaning, you'd have to ask him.
ABBEY Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 hes an alien with 666 tatooed on his head he also has 4 nipples and as a wart in the middle of his chin and he has had a sex op too
modes98 Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 Yeah it's Lee the official guy. He has one of the best jobs in the world
tchocky Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 He started this site, and then went on to work for the Rovers. Lucky fella!
SouthAussieRover Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 He started this site, and then went on to work for the Rovers. Lucky fella! I'm not sure he actually started if I remember correctly. However he set it on its glorious way once he took it on. Then he went on to achieve every fans dream. Good on the fella I say.
benhben Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 What job does grooby actually do? Working with players would be a dream. Cleaning Rovers toilets wouldnt be much of a dream though.
Glenn Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 I believe "Internet Manager" is his official title. I would imagine his most visible responsibility is running the official website. Lee is our hero, he is our god. He also means I don't have to worry about having an option to abstain from votes
stuwilky Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 He also generously sponsors the message board awards. Traditionally presented on the last game of the season drinking session.
trs Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 He's the man who loves to be asked "how many tickets have we sold?"
blue phil Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 What job does grooby actually do? Working with players would be a dream. Cleaning Rovers toilets wouldnt be much of a dream though. John Williams' lickspittle according to Vinjay .....
Modi Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 He also generously sponsors the message board awards. Traditionally presented on the last game of the season drinking session. Not strictly speaking. He doesn't sponsor the awards meaning he pays for them, they do have his name though in honour of The Great Man. As Glenn says, he is the God of All Rovers Fans.
Ozz Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 He's not my God. Never even met this diety. I bet it's like The Wizard Of Oz.
stuwilky Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 Not strictly speaking. He doesn't sponsor the awards meaning he pays for them, they do have his name though in honour of The Great Man. I was taking the micky
cletus Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 and hes going to the Maldives on hols! When`s he going? ...& where`s he live again? :ph34r:
bob fleming Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 I spoke to him once in a pub, he seemed a really nice fella. He's not let the fame go to his head.
roversmum Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 He's not my God. Never even met this diety. I bet it's like The Wizard Of Oz. spat my tea out then! I once appeared in a production of the Wizard of Oz (as the good witch, naturally) and come to think of it the guy who took the part of the Wiz did bear a certain resemblance to Lee......
stuwilky Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 I spoke to him once in a pub, he seemed a really nice fella. He's not let the fame go to his head. Apart from the flash car he drives, his palatial home and regular trips to glamourous location - the last time I spoke to him he claimed to be in Morecambe. Im sure that is code for Maldives.
Jordan Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 Apart from the flash car he drives, his palatial home and regular trips to glamourous location - the last time I spoke to him he claimed to be in Morecambe. Im sure that is code for Maldives. He was looking a it brown when I saw him yesterday............he has either been abroad or uses fake tan. Most likely the latter.
Alan75 Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 Apart from the flash car he drives, his palatial home and regular trips to glamourous location - the last time I spoke to him he claimed to be in Morecambe. Im sure that is code for Maldives. WOW The Reserves are playing at Christie Park, Maldives. must be an all expenses paid trip for Grooby.
cletus Posted April 22, 2007 Posted April 22, 2007 I spoke to him once in a pub, he seemed a really nice fella. He's not let the fame go to his head. Think i`ve met him aswell Bob....short arms deep pockets, is that him?
bob fleming Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 Think i`ve met him aswell Bob....short arms deep pockets, is that him? That's the fella. Decent unassuming sort. You wouldn't even know he was there, he just blended into the background drinking his champagne and smoking his cuban cigars.
Lee Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 lol SAR yes I did start this site. Cletus, Bob F, you both ducked out of the offer of a drink the last time we were in the Fernhurst if I recall, some excuse about having homes to go to. Roversmum, the closest I came to being in the Wizard of Oz was when I painted the scenary and shifted it about in a school play once. Right, I must go now, Stalybridge is calling me!
broadsword Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 I believe "Internet Manager" is his official title. He manages the whole internet? Blimey, must be a bit busy ...
