I had mario balotelli in work the week before we got beat by arsenal three nill. He was waiting for his missus who was in the fitting room trying clothes on. Had a chat with him. He told me to put a fiver on him scoring the first goal against arsenal but he didn't pass his fitness test so kept it safe! I was shaking like a shittin dog!!

Kinkladze, right in his hey day for us. Was in a shop in St Anne's Square, turned to go out towards the door and literally bumped into him. Was surprised how big he was to be honest, would have took a lot to get him off the ball. God.

Went out to celebrate my 18th birthday. Low and behold we bumped into Mark Hughes in the Boddies arms. We got thrown for hurling abuse at him, he was playing for the rags at the time.

Nicky Weaver having a pint on the Drop Inn on Wilmslow Road watching the England v Argentina match in the Korea/Japan World Cup.
Jason Beckford knocked on my office door at university a couple of years ago asking where room such and such was, because he was lost and was giving a talk about something or other.

Was quite surprised to meet Didi Hamann at my Aunties 90th birthday do about 18 months ago. (turns out he's living with my cousin's daughter)
Hamann is not the archetypal German is he? Took to England like a duck to water that man
