Nickname?[edit]

I can't find any sources on this but if I recall correctly, his nickname during his liverpool days was "The Assassin". Anyone else remember?

Gay bar fight[edit]

Why is there no mention that in '87 when he had an injury, Mølby got into a fight in Chester at Whispers on Forest Street. He and the group he was with then tried to turn a car over in the street. Remember it well from my youth particularly as the club he was in was the gay club of old Chester town. Nowadays it'd been the red tops' field day back then it was just a local story. Aye it's still remembered today. The story blew up because he was meant to be injured yet he could still turn a car over !!!

Kolding goals?[edit]

I've made a WP:Bold edit, as in the career statistics it said that for Kolding he made 40 apps with 0 goals in the league, but the total said 40 apps with 2 goals. But I freely admit I've err'd on the side of caution, and it may be the league total that was wrong.

Also, is it correct he didn't appear in any cup games for Kolding and Ajax? 146.112.56.109 (talk) 00:45, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Troy Hawke / Greeters guild[edit]

While it's a funny part of comedian Troy Hawkes comedy routines where Jan is worshipped as a hero, this still increased world search volume for Jan by 3 and 5x more in Jul 2021 and Aug 2022 when his Tik Tik and Youtube Videos about Jan went massively viral.

Many of the people coming to this page may not know of Jan and trying to understand why he is held in such high esteem.

Troy has a routine where he stands and greets bystanders with compliments and encouragement, and he references Jan in as many interactions as he is able to, as a standard for a truly great man.

I added an edit to clarify that for anyone coming to the page with links to the mural that Troy paid for and their interaction. Jaybest (talk) 20:57, 8 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
