Article needs revision.

I doubt if I am qualified to do so but someone needs to rewrite this article. Mr Channon has been a racehorse trainer longer than he was a footballer and as a racehorse trainer he was successful winning some important races. I believe he has now retired and his son Jack Channon has his taining licence. The article is thus, out of date and skewed to what he did over forty years ago. Would someone with good racing knowledge be interesting in updating and rewriting? Dorkinglad (talk) 12:41, 12 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
