Which famous people can’t stand you.

Gerry Gow no less....I slid tackled him in a game MUCH later in his career...I Gerry Gowed him so to speak. Called me a little c**t and wouldnt accept a beer off me after game. Id been dying to talk to him about City in the bar. Was very upset.
Soz mate, but I’m with Gerry on this ;-).
I avoid interactions with famous people as generally I am left disappointed
I’m pretty much of the same mindset mate unless forced too, there’s a reason for that old proverb “never meet your heroes” as it generally holds true.
 
I sat uninvited with my friends on a chai (tea) mat at a full moon party in Goa with Richard Gere and a few of his friends in the early 90s- we just kind of stared at him and each other in disbelief in a state of supernova, to be fair to him he seemed to be unperturbed and oblivious to our arrival. Quite embarrassing and surreal thinking back.
 
Whilst playing rugby at school I was tripped from behind when clean through for a certain try. I took exception to this and offered the guy who did it a solid beating after classes.

later that day, whilst sat in Maths I had a good look at the perpetrator. Hmmmm. A good few inches taller than me, a damn sight better built than me, in fact, would intimidate a brick shit house.
Clearly, a tactical retreat might be the order of the day. Having spoken to one or two of my teammates, I was able to determine that the trip was actually a perfectly executed ‘tap tackle’.

Just the loophole I needed.
’well played mate, perfect tackle, no need to fall out about it’
this was generously agreed.

Just as well because Derek went on to become one of Scotlands finest back row forward, winning the elusive Grand Slam, triple crown and representing the British Lions in Australia.
 
I congratulated former City legend ,Barry Conlon on his goal for Barnsley in a drubbing v City and he requested that I xxxk off. We were both pissed in a bar in York which to be fair was not unusual for either of us then.
 
I want tell my story of Brian Robson and Trevor Francis, but I wont. All I will say is I got Trevs autograph and left Robson open mouthed. In short, they were together, I asked for Trevs, after which Robson said 'I suppose you'll want mine as well,' I looked at him and said 'why the fuck would I want yours?' I then walked off, my mates said his face was a picture and Trev pissed himself laughing.
There is a back story which makes it better but.......
