Barry Hearn on why he loved John Sitton’s 'bring your f**king dinner’ rant

During his 19 years owning beloved Leyton Orient, Barry Hearn experienced highs, lows, characters and his fair share of general chaos that comes when you try to run a football club. But for Hearn, few characters were as memorable as John Sitton . When Hearn bought the O's in 1995 for a nominal fee, he was taking a club drowning in debt at the bottom of the third tier, with Channel 4's cameras documenting the period in their 'Club For A Fiver documentary.
