WOLVES FAN CROWNED WINNER OF BEST PUB SHED OF THE YEAR
A WOLVES fan who spent £20,000 building his own sports bar in his back garden complete with a hot tub has been crowned winner of Britain's Best Pub Shed.
Glen Gandy, 51, worked for around two years constructing the incredible DIY man-cave from scratch at his home in Willenhall, Walsall.
The boozer, called Cognitos, boasts a DJ booth with decks, a Space Invaders arcade machine, juke box, its own beer garden, a jacuzzi and even a toilet/shower room.
Decked out in Wolverhampton Wanderers FC memorabilia, the footy-themed bar has now beat off 1,000 other entries to be named Pub Shed of the Year.
Glen said he never expected to win and the victory is even sweeter as one of the other three finalists is a fan of Wolves' arch rivals West Bromwich Albion.
Delighted dad-of-two Glen, who is a builder, said: “I was just honoured to get down to the final three really, I never expected to win at all.
