Jamie Pollock defending Paul Dickov from bouncers outside the bogs at the willows Salford at citys end of season do, all the bouncers were rags and the event was abandoned!
Anyone else worrying about what happened to Richie's second ice cream?Not football but went watching Lancashire Vs Worcestershire in a cup semi final at New Road back in 2003. It was one of the hottest days of the year and I was queueing up for an ice cream and I got a tap on my shoulder. When I turned round it was only cricket legend Richie Benaud who was doing commentary for channel 4 and he asked me could I break a £5 note. I told him don't worry and I bought him 2 ice creams. He then stayed and chatted with me for about 5 minutes talking about cricket and I got his autograph. Absolute gentleman he was
Did you shake his hand or just exchange glancesI remember standing next to Uwe Rosler in the toilets at Wembley v Gillingham. Anyone else remember?
Similar story here for me but with Robert Croft the cricketer. I wasnt shagging Robert Croft, obviously. We both ended up back in this house in Cardiff with student nursesPissed up and ended up with a girl who took me back to her friends house on the Racecourse estate in sale. Woke up in the middle of the night lay on the sofa and Roger Palmer was with her mate on the chair. Wrong time to ask for an autograph. We just nodded at each other. Good times.....
Reus airport was that a visit to Salou ?Not exactly very strange however, I met David Silva in a Ryanair queue flying back to Manchester from Reus Airport. He was at the back of the queue and I'd been running for the flight thinking I'd missed it.
Also saw Ian Rush on a Ryanair flight. Can't remember where we were flying back from though. It might have been Paris.
Also saw Dean Windass in T3 last year.
He must have glanced. I could tell by the look of envy in his eyes.Did you shake his hand or just exchange glances
