I met Joe Hart about 3 weeks ago at the Cheshire v Shropshire cricket game, he knew a load of Shropshire players as he used to play for them.

On the night of the 4-1 derby victory I was watching my mate boxing at the MEN arena with my rags friends. Stood on the concourse having a beer when I get a nudge and realise everyone is indicating something behind me. SWP and Trevor Sinclair are 20 yards away coming towards me, so I stuck out my hand and said 'thanks for one of the best days of my life'. Just looked at me like I was a piece of shit and walked straight passed. Turned around expecting to get ripped by my mates and not one did, just said they were wankers.
On the flip side my locals landlord (rag) met none other than the goat and his family whilst out shopping with a blue he knows. The goat said he couldn't talk straight away but he would put his stuff in the car and come back. They tought it was just a brush off but low and behold Goater came back in and spent 15mins chatting away. Landlord said he was unbelievely sound and such a genuinely lovely fella. The blue reminded him his wife and child were waiting outside and he said something like he had told them to put on a DVD and they were used to it. TRUE LEGEND

alextrueblue said:I have met quite a few players, due to a previous job. I must say though, far and away the best was a certain eric cantona. In 1995 cantona, sharpe and the elephant man, visited christie hospital while my dad was an in-patient. There was a young lad about 19, who was in a side room, who was extremly ill, and a united fan, who couldn't stop talking about this visit for days, unfortunatley this lad was unconscious by the time they got to the ward. My dad was having a chat with cantona and explained the lads situation, the elephant man was blurting shite about it being a shame and that they had to return for training, as the gaffer was moaning about them being so long. Cantona said something in french, thanked my dad for the information and proceeded to sit in the lads room and wait to see if he woke up, he sat there for about 40 mins, and after pressure from the scum staff, he reluctantly left him a written letter and left. Just as cantona was leaving the front exit at oak rd, this lad opened his eyes (sods law) he was crying at the thought of missing his hero, while the nurses read him the letter over and over again. Cantona looked up, and another patient said to him out the window, that he'd regained consciousness, he turned around and came back up the stairs and spent an hour with the lad, untill he drifted off back to sleep. Sorry for the long post, but i know some people in football are the enemy, but i'd just like to make it known that although he is an arrogant prick, underneath he is not bad at all.
btw, the lad died 2 days later.
That's just made me fill up. Bet the lad died happy. What a story.
only jus seen this. what a beautiful story. my little brother was in alder hey childrens hospital in liverpool for about a year. during the christmas time liverpool players and everton players visited his ward. anyway my point is that phil neville came in and apparently he was an absolute gentleman. my dad said he was really good with the kids and when my dad told him he was a city fan they had a good chat about football. my opinion of him has certainly changed.alextrueblue said:I have met quite a few players, due to a previous job.

What a great story about Cantona, i really disliked him before reading that, just goes to show that you shouldnt make judgement on someone who i dont even know, what a top bloke. well done.
