Mark Poole - Update

Post by Fretters » Tue Jan 26, 2021 4:39 pm

I posted a couple of weeks ago about Mark Poole, a Burnley fan who was stuck in a Chinese hospital. you can read about it via the Daily Mail here: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... pital.html

The great news is that he's on his way home thanks to his parents emptying their pension pots and the thousands raised in donations. Thanks to all who donated via here and thanks to FactualFrank who shared the story with his 3 million twitter followers which was a massive help.

Just had a peep and there is a mapinchina on the board, last posted in April 2020, perhaps that is Mark. Anyway all the best Mark and wish you a full recovery.
