Coronation Street and football

I'll tell you one I remember. The derby after the last derby at Maine Road, the show on the day before it had the match being shown in the pub. Showed a scene with half of the pub dressed in city shirts and half united. Les battersby, In a city shirt, said at the end of the show, as the match was supposed to be starting "come on, turn it on, we are all waiting to see if Gary Neville gives us another moment of magic!"

Although Bruce Jones is a big blue, his character was supposed to be a rag - the props department put a rag picture on his house (as a wind up cos he was a blue) - can't comment on any episodes though... can't stand soaps, don't watch them!

Wasn't David Platts's bedroom adorned with City posters though in real life the actor (Jack P. Shephard) is a rag.
He's a Leeds fan in the real world.

Strangely I saw Bruce in a pub in Llandudno the other week. He is fitting tyres part time now!

I don't watch it but my Wife does. But that scene definitely happened. I reckon they forget what's gone before sometimes, different scriptwriters etc. Bruce certainty wasn't going to correct them when given the script, which must have been written by a blue.
