Had a chat at Wembley V Villa.....nice bloke. Not a Scottish accent.
The first time I came across Pete was watching him place something on the top of police horse shit.Being a nosey twat I laughed like hell when I read what this little note said ... "United were here". LOL
Seen him at The Etihad and a few years ago he was still at it.Don`t know if he still bothers,but what a character and wonderful to read his Q & A session.
Spoke to him on many occasions
don’t think he’s ever washed his gloves hat etc
Ha yeah I saw him put a card down early this season....or it could have been late the season before.The first time I came across Pete was at Maine Road,watching him place something on the top of police horse shit.Being a nosey twat I laughed like hell when I read what this little note said ... "United were here". LOL

At some point, maybe 12 months ago, maybe two years ago, i was walking to a night match from town. I decided to walk along the canals from Piccadilly. It wasn't dark so it must have been at the start or end of a season.
Anyway, I cut down and Pete The Badge was doing the same thing, having just come from the train station, I presume.
As he is an older chap and there was only me and him there, I was conscious that I didn't want him to think I was going to mug him on the deserted canal path. I don't really wear City colours and definitely not to the extent he does, so as far as he was concerned I could have been just some dodgy bloke following him down to the canal.
I was walking quicker than him and I thought I'd get past him on the path and crack on, as you don't want someone following close behind you down there.
It's quite tight on the paths and I didn't want to get too close to him and shit him up so I went past quite quickly and then, a few steps after I had passed him, because I was rushing, I stepped on some slime and nearly went arse over tit into the canal, making a stupid shape with my arms and legs. I just stayed on my feet and then thought I had better acknowledge it. I turned to him and laughed "I nearly went in there." Having heard on here that he was a very unassuming character, I thought he would have been amused and it would have shown that I wasn't some scumbag just waiting to do him in for his lunchbox.
He looked at me like I was a total prick and just blanked me completely! Hahaha.
