Garforth
Key points of interest in Garforth, West Yorkshire, England. Of Anglo-Saxon derivation, the name Garforth is a combination of two words meaning 'ford by a triangular piece of land'. The Anglo-Saxons occupied the area after it had been annexed by the Kingdom of Northumbria in AD 617. Archaeological remains from the period suggest that a loosely arranged community lived in houses scattered over the countryside (“Garforth history”, 2006). QUOTATION
Having bought Garforth Town Football Club in 2003, English football coach and entrepreneur Simon Clifford made several major changes to uplift their image, followed by a decision to appoint recovering alcoholic Paul Gascoigne as the club's new manager in 2010. Regarding the appointment, Clifford stated: "This is not a publicity stunt. I want him to be an inspiration to someone who might have depression or problems in their lives. He has walked through hell but he has kept on walking." (“Gazza job ‘no stunt’”, 2010).
