Looking at the GTFC Wiki page I noticed our sparse 'famous fans' section had been updated to include Lloyd Griffith. Anyone know the chap?

He is apparently a part time comedian and part time professional choir singer- what an unlikely mix! Listening to him sing on stage it's surprising he actually has the balls to get up there! Mentions Grimsby a fair bit.

How come the Telewag don't know him?

Can't remember them mentioning him.

Having said that, I've never heard of him either.

Yeah he lives in London, I've seen him before. I have a feeling he may have edited that section himself though

Correct - he's an ex chorister at St James - his mum now runs a Cleethorpes guest house - my wife is her cousin.
