Robbie Williams is to get a restaurant named after him at Port Vale Football Club. The singer, as previously reported, earlier this year bought a 25% stake in the club, which he has supported since he was a child.
Club chairman Bill Bratt says that that the venue will be "a premium corporate area with a bar and restaurant and great views overlooking the surrounding area," adding that Williams was only too happy for the new oulet to take his name: "He has given his permission and was very happy and proud and said yes without any hesitation when we asked. We would like to think he would come and see it but he is in the middle of a world tour at the moment but, when the football season starts we think he will be here."
