Anyone had run ins with city players outside of football?

I see Michael Johnson everytime I go out, only spoke to him once. He wasn't that interested, he didn't even turn round to talk to me...he was pissed though (obviously)!

However, on the same night in the same club I spoke to Ben Mee! My girlfriend and his girlfriend work together and it was a staff do that we had both been dragged to! Anyway, he is proper sound! I was asking him loads of stuff and he was happy to talk and answer all my questions, and then he started asking me what I do etc. which was nice because I'd just expect footballers to be all about themselves!

When we were kids Andy Dibble lived not far from us and we used to knock on his door, cheeky I know but he was sound used to chat to us and brought us a load of signed photos, once had us all in the back of his Mondeo trying to clip back on a piece of plastic that had come off.
Seen Nicky Weaver out in The Downs in Altrincham one night pissed out of his face, had a chat with him but he thought he was the dogs bollocks.
Also seen Huckerby on the lash in Alty once and had a few words, he was OK to chat to and Steve Howey was also out my mate was annoying the arse off him.
Anelka too, once walking through Alty town centre and once in the Trafford Centre. Never actually spoke but shouted over and he gave us a wave.

Saw Nicky Weaver a few years ago running on the road near my house. He was about 30/40 yards away and I was in the car so slowed down wound the window down and shouted "Go on Nicky". He turned round mid run, and gave a few double fists in the air before clapping above his head, truning back round and carrying on with his run....LEGEND!

Played in a charity match at The Reebok a few seasons ago,Gary Owen was manager of our team,funny as fuck that guy,piss head me thinks looking back...Good Lad.

Also met Pearce/Distin/Onuoha and Croft at the opening of a mens clothes shop in Manchester,got Distin to sign a bit of paper with a William Hill bookies pen,he hadnt seen a pen that small before,so obviously didnt go into bookies !!!

It was at the time that Pearce was just about to become full time manager,and i wished him all the best for his appointment,and that me and my mates were fully behind him,he asked where i was from I said Chorley,do you know it,he said yeah,i though Fuck Off no you dont

when i lived in newmarket Peter Barnes & Garry Owen used to come down quite often to see a mate of mine, have day at races etc, once came back from game at ipswich in garrys car and some **** overtook us whilst a van was coming other way, cut back in at last second, cutting us up & he nearly lost control of car. we followed him for 5 mile,back to newmarket, where this fella pulled into the Bedford Hotel we followed him in and garry let the prick have it with both barrels, had to drag him away eventually. barnesy on other hand, total gent... was talking later that night to a fella who had no idea who he was, we got onto subject of party tricks, pete says bet you a pint i can flick £1 coin up,catch it on my shoe,flick it on to my thigh, onto my shoulder and roll it into my shirt pocket, which he did... funny as fuck to see the fellas face whan we told he was!

Met anelka once outside deansgate locks in town, it was just after the 3-1 derby I think, when Neville fucked up. I remember thanking him for the goal in the derby, seemed a sound guy to be fair, although I was fucking hammered, so hard to tell. Went to get a taxi across the road and saw barthez and dwight yorke, who I assume had both been out with anelka. Gave barthez a load of shit about the derby (singing feed the goat etc) and saw yorke getting into one of those dodgy taxis with what looked like a 16 year old scratter!
