Nick Tinker, the former chairman of Gainsborough Trinity FC has had his flight back to England cancelled following the collapse of Monarch Airlines.
It's claimed that 300,000 future bookings for flights and holidays have been cancelled after the company ceased trading.
Nick, who is on holiday in Turkey with his wife said the first he heard about the cancellation was from a fellow holiday-maker on the beach.
Quote MessageNo-one's got in touch with us at all, which I thought was quite strange. We've had no texts no email, no correspondence whatsoever from Monarch.

Nick, who now serves as the club's president, was due to come back this evening, but he's now due to fly in the early hours of the morning with Turkish Airlines.
Hopefully, he'll be back in time for Gainsborough Trinity's next game against Leamington:
