dingo 1,388 Posted June 12 (edited) I wonder what that "place" actually means. Is that only a short stay for getting to know the heya like some Japanese students do? Or is it an actual membership. I vaguely remember some talk about a British potential joiner before but I don't remember where I saw it. Very possibly on this forum. Edit: yup he was mentioned less than a year ago in the new recruits Aki 2024 thread http://www.sumoforum.net/forums/topic/43998-new-recruits-aki-2024/?do=findComment&comment=522648 Edited June 12 by dingo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jejima 1,443 Posted June 13 Hull.... What does @Fujisan have to say? (I grew up in Grimsby - where Fujisan lives - and whilst at school, I was indoctrinated to dislike people coming from Hull - BUT I am backing this guy to do well! Although, isn't he a little young?)
