🟠 "[Reporter] Do you fear for your position?"

"That's for others. The one thing about me is I don't quit because of a bad performance. That's for others to discuss. I have to say it's not easy."

We’re on TalkSport and Radio Lancashire this morning chatting all things PNE sponsorship, social media and the wild journey so far🎙️

Still can’t believe we get to do stuff like this- 16 months ago we never imagined we’d be sat here having these conversations!
Massive thanks to everyone who’s supported us - we’re proper grateful! 💙

🚨 @BBCLancashire’s @GrahamLiver will be competing in this year’s #AmazingAccrington Soapbox Challenge in the event’s fastest ever cart… Chicken Run!

Thank you to our friends at Emerson and Renwick, Graham and Leon will be looking to record BBC Radio Lancashire’s best ever finish time 🐥🐔

To date they have never qualified for the final stages, even finishing in last place in 2024 with their ‘Back to the Future’ entry 👀

Is it the driver? Or is it the cart? Let’s find out on Saturday 23rd August in Accrington Town Centre 😉

Our Chair, Murray Dawson, has been talking all things Soapbox Challenge and Accrington Food & Drink Festival on the radio this morning.

Have a listen ⬇️

The hope is that an appointment will be made before the Norwich game on Saturday.
