We all piled into him unmercilessly, until in attempt to calm us down he told the owner to present my mate with a magnum of champagne to celebrate the babies birth. My mate went over to him shook his hand and said "Cheers you ****** bastard" and shook his hand. Nicky Buttt just said "there is no need for that"
Ive got to say he was a top bloke!
Me and four other blues were working in Dublin for the first time. When we got on the plane and were waiting to get going we noticed that Denis Irwin was walking down the aisle. My mate shouted "come and sit with us Denis" expecting him to avoid us. He didn't, he looked up, smiled and came and sat with us. He'd scored that wekend but never once talked about it, he was more interested in what we were doing. When we got to Dublin he made sure we knew where we were going and shook our hands.Swales lives said:The Mancunian Way said:mills-mcfc said:The Mancunian Way said:Am i the only one who finds this sad?

Not at all, and please don't think that I for one second can tolerate the Rags, i just don't think things like some of these mentioned are funny or clever. The ones refusing autographs yes, thats funny. Stealing and stuff just doesn't do it for me. Sorry.
Personally, i thought the Denis Irwin coat theft was the funniest - I can just picture his shiny leather slowly sinking into the murky water.

My brother refused to talk to them and when they asked did he want to have a picture he just said "no because I don't take pictures with scum". We brought him up well
