Tony leaving the scene of the crime (but still wearing exhibit1)

Here over the next few weeks i'll be laying down the framework to the man that is Tony. Part man part statistician. I will flesh out his character, his inner soul, encompass his loves, passions and foibles. I will try to get to the heart of this intriguing personality, peelback the layers that comprise this multi-layered human being.
 Then i'll dish the dirt and take the p**s out of him something rotten. Sorted.

Tony relaxing at the head of the table

Tony'the Pole ' Borrowiec, dubious bottle in hand.
Tony about to give a "sample". He actually needed three other litre bottles to complete the task! Awesome. The result was positve and Miss W ( ex- politician) is getting £30 a week.
Tony is the elder statesman of the Wilkie Tours crew. At 73 he is 4 years older than Bushy 8 older than Phil 20 older than Colin, 21 older than Wilkie and Nigel and 40 older than Barry and 3 minutes older than me. Often confused with the actor Anton Rogers from the Light program May to September who funnily enough played an elder man f.......with a wife 40 years younger 

Florence's favourite son

Photo from last November's  Florence game. Tony is wearing Rocha John-Rocha. The jacket is a "one-off" created specially to fit Tony's ,erm, alarmingly shaped body. Hat by Malcolm Maclaren from his "conehead" collection. The scarf is a present from Manchester City's Manager Roberto Mancini from his previous Club (Eastleigh Town i think).
Tony is a noted Fashinistsa and has his own line of edible underwear and quick-disolving socks. (He hates washing these items on tour).
A talented sportsman, he was on the books for Southampton (library) and played Non Body contact Cribbage semi-professionally in the lower Shirley pub league. He is an affiliated member of............. What? No? Oh he just has an affiliated member ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

MORE "TONA-PHILLIA" IN FEBRUARY

Just desserts

Here's Tony being given his referees match fees by Shirley Town 5-a-sides Vets President Michelo Andresoni after " helping" them to a 9-8 victory over Barcelona in the final of the Euro Cuppo di Sotonia in 2007. He awarded ST 5's nine second half penalties after sending off 9 Barca players after they had gone 8-0 ahead. Great game Tone, a match to remember. 
So football runs thru Tony's blood and as well as all the Wilkie Tours he's attended he is a 35 year season ticket holder for Southampton, notching up 17 matches in total including 14 away trips to any ground within 50 miles of the open prison he has to report to on every other Saturday.
