What I said was badly twisted - comments taken out of context etc. when it was published.
Since the article's appearance in the local paper - I've been pestered by the Daily Mirror, local BBC Radio and just now - the Daily Express. All of them want me to embellish the story - which I have no intention of doing. There's enough sh...(you know what) hitting the fan already, especially as I referred to the members who DIDN'T want the ladies to join as "misogynistic dinosaurs"
Make the most of it Rod, there aren't that many times in ones life when you can be famous. Have lots of fun
