He explained the deep emotional connection that he still holds with regards to the people he has worked with in managing the grounds and owning the club.
Not having the easiest childhood Jeff left school with no qualifications, but a key philosophy left with him by his parents.
He said: “My parents taught me that there were only three ways in life you could ever be successful, one was to work hard, the second one was to work hard, and the third one was to work hard.”
He then went on to say how all his life he’s has had maximum work ethic as he had no education.
