Me and an England player

[Big Swifty]

I was in a quiz in Altrincham and we had to wear badges with our names on. A guy I'd never seen before came up to me and said "What's it like having the same name as the worst footballer who's ever played for England?"
I was a bit taken aback.
Anyone else share their name (Forename & surname) with a footballer, crap or otherwise?

Not many called Phillip Neville about, unlucky Swifty.

 

[Big Swifty]

No, sorry, not him.........

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Got to be...

 

[MillionMilesAway]

Got to be...

That would be my guess too.

Only Kerry and Lee with my surname that I can think of, not spectacular but decent players

 

[blue roo]

Brian Greenhough ... surely!
If he had played for anybody else he wouldn't have got within a million miles of the national team ... man he was shite!

You are either called Carlton
Or
Palmer.

Nope, just a bushy eye browed ex Sky Sports presenter. Think he's knocking about on bein sports these days. It's not Richard Keys thankfully - that would be unfortunate.
