I heard the news today that Mike Tyson (Yes, the boxer) is a Peterborough United Fan. No explanation, except that he and his entourage turned up at London Road for a game against West Ham and he and a dozen mates were paraded on the pitch at half time, presumably once somebody in the club noticed he was there. Mike trained in a local gym and ate at Rony Choudhury's Indian restaurant, all 12 of them. Mike demolished the vegan curry.
While in the area he made friends with local pigeon breeder, Darren Peters, in East Heckington, Lincs, a "sport" Mike follows by breeding the little blighters. This was one of Mike's bucket items on his UK tour. Tyson was the youngest ever World Heavyweight Champion and is famed for bankruptcy, prison and biting an opponent's ear.
