Players You Have Met

[maccadon]

Jim leighton - he almost ran me down

Buzzer twice - true gentleman

Dennis law - nice bloke and got Willie miller to buy me and my dad a drink(a rare spectacle of him opening his wallet)

So aforementioned Willie miller but I drink often with him so dunno if he counts

I once 'chatted' to Kinky in Kells nightclub. I was so drunk I don't think i realised he couldn't speak any English!

me son treated me a couple of season's ago on the v.i.p. coach to arsenal for my birthday. we had a lovely meal, and lakey looked after us all the time we were in the hotel.

i was watching him milling around looking after everyone.

i said to my son "that's a 200 grand a week footballer".

what a gent.

Joe Hart - top bloke, met him a few times and always smiles and shook hands.

SWP - same as above.

Micah - possibly the nicest bloke in football, offered to buy him a drink in Hale but he bought mine and a few more after.

AJ - complete dickhead, I held a door open for him and congratulated him on winning the title and he stated "who are you, exactly?". I reminded him that I paid his overinflated wages and he soon pissed off.

Mario - met him twice, once at Midnight Mass in Chorlton and another at my Muay Thai gym where he'd just finished a 1-2-1. Top geezer.

Dunney - lovely bloke, had a chat with him outside the Printworks one night.

Elano and Robhino - met them in a Brazilian restauraunt in town on my birthday. I was telling the Brazilian waiter that I was a blue (my birthday cake had city colours) and then he got those two over. Nice guys.

Martin Petrov - met him in the physio. Nice guy, if a little shy.

De Jong - accidently kicked a football towards his families picnic in Dunham Massey, rolled into his wife's leg. Ran over and almost shit myself when I saw Nige sat there! Friendly guy though and had a brief kickabout.

Nasri and Clichy - met in Selfridges the day before the United game, chatted to both in French about United and also the Euros. Told Clichy he should be ahead of Evra in the French team, he described Evra as a 'connard' - make of that what you will.

Distin, Saha and Fellani were on a flight from Paris to Manchester and sat next to me on the plane. All were complete dickheads, Saha completely ignored me despite sitting right next to me literally ignored me as if I wasn't there.

Fuck me you have met a lot of players, lucky bastard!

Like the thought of Clichy calling Evra a 'connard' though

Not at all suprised to hear AJ was an arrogant twat

Got a picture with kinkladze and his autograph when I was a kid.

pantilimon, he looked down at me. lol. also seen richards years ago when he was 17/18.

Joey Barton at his best, pissed up and fighting outside the Press Club. On the Monday morning I saw his face on the front page of the Daily Mirror and assumed it had been reported, but when I read the story he had been out on the players Christmas party and stubbed a cigar in Jamie Tandy's eye. Class act.

Me and my mates also met Niall Quinn, Steve Bould and Adrian Heath in the Press Club on a break from Sunderland as they had been knocked out of the FA Cup. We drank with them for an hour or two. Unsurprisingly, Heath was a arrogant little prick and Quinny was a complete gentleman. Bould disappeared with a 20 year old girl who was with us on the night (tbh says more about her than him).

Jeff Whitley and Micheal Brown outside some late night boozer in Fallowfield one Sunday night. I ended up sharing a taxi to a curry house in Heaton Moor where we boozed for a good few hours. They were both sound, but I did wonder what they were doing out until that time (and where Nicky Weaver was!)

Fuck me I know women go for footballers but Steve Bould, she must be a slag!!
