Seeing Stars at City

[bluemc]

Saw Andrew Lloyd Webber going into Wembley, it was before either the rags semi final or Stoke final, can't quite remember. Obviously he was going into the posh bit, and I wasn't .

Cain Dingle and John Stapleton at Maine Road, like many others.

Was he in the south stand near 116 with his daughter?
I thought I'd imagined it.

You didn't imagine it, he was in 117 with his daughter

Cain Dingle used to drink in Clynes Pub at the top of Stretford Road before games

Also had the misfortune of being in the Barleycorn Pub in West Didsbury when Alex Higgins and Phil Lynott were on a session

Being from Chorlton also saw Curly Watts and the rag twat Hutchence a few times

Also ex rag Darren Fletcher asked me where the toilets were in Trafford Centre ;)

Another sighting of Cain Dingle from me too. He was sat behind me away at Charlton in probably the early 2000's. I actually saw Nick Leeson at the same game who kind of counts as a star I suppose!

The actor who played Billy Boswell in Bread travelled all over in the late 80's / early 90's.
We played at Plough Lane one game and were at the Wimbledon underground station (which was actually overground) and Chelsea played at home and a load of Chelsea fans piled off the other platform, saw him and chanted ''one Billy Boswell, there's only one Billy Boswell''

Once bumped into (literally) Rick Wakeman outside the Main Stand at Maine Road.

You didn't imagine it, he was in 117 with his daughter

Ha ha, mad.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Seen Jason Manford a few times at games.

 

[Chris in London]

The last time we beat Chelsea 1-0 at home was a Saturday evening game. Tevez scored a breakaway goal IIRC.

Anyway, I parked in the time on the car park behind the east stand and as Im getting out of the car, who should be getting out of the car next to me but Phil Neville. He was still at Everton at the time who were playing the next day. I didn't waste any breath on him but was highly amused by what my lad put as his Facebook status later:

"Can't believe I missed the opportunity to shit on Phil Neville's car".

That's my boy :)

Bernard manning and Julie Goodyear Maine road..how we all laughed

 

[Fame Monster]

Bruce Forsyth got mobbed by City fans in the 2011 final, that was funny
