I’ve never met the woman but you can just tell from watching the way the players interact with her and speak of her that she would be a gem.

Should have gone to Johnny Tobin RIP.

Was he actually nominated for real?

Can anyone tell us a bit more about Cathy King? Sounds like a popular choice. I don't know anything about her.
