Ban-jani said:Didi Hamann was top notch, I met him outside manc airport a few months ago, whilst he was having a cig outside.
We chatted for about 5-10 mins whilst my then girlfriend stood bemused as to who it was.
He was incredibly down to earth and said he still really wants City to do well, even though he said when they play Liverpool he slightly favours them.
I couldn't believe how friendly he was and how passionate he was about football and the project at City.
Our Kid knows Didi well - I've met him a few times - and he is a good guy.
I've met a number of "celebs" and none of them has worthy of being called a prick. Closest would be Phil Lewis when he was lead singer of a band called Girl, who were supposed to be supporting Kiss at Wembley Arena in 1980. He had a bit of a cold and kept going on about how much Benylin he'd drunk and how it was making him "sleepy, man". Anyhow, Girl pulled out of the second night's gig due to Phil's cold, which Gene Simmons certainly thought made Phil a prick: Simmons was very much of the show must go on mind.
Simmons, in fact refers to himself as an asshole and I'm sure plenty of people think that he is a prick but he was happy enough to chat to a bunch of nobodies who happened to be backstage at his gig.
