He was a really nice bloke, at the time the USA stuff was a little vague/possibly had been dropped (memory might not be right here). The pub was a mixed/gay pub that the team I played for used as a base. He was amazed to find a football team in there and chatted quite a bit to a couple of us, mainly about Brian Clough and knee injuries as I remember.RedChaser said:
What the hell did you say to him? :-0 (surprised emoticon) Sadly took his own life whilst waiting to be tried in the USA on sexual assault charges.Cordoban Addick said:I met Justin Fashanu in a pub in Daltson about two weeks before he died.

Killer worked as a PE teacher at my school in my last year. Played football with him for a bit and saw him embarrass a few of the kids who thought they were a bit tasty.
Went to school with George Boyd and Rob Elliot.0 -

My Dad met Sam Bartram once, he told him the toughest player he had played against was Trevor Ford the old Welsh centre-forward. As well as the usual body charges, his favourite trick was to throw a handful of mud in Sams face as a corner was coming over!0

Not a great one but I bumped into Charlie Austin at the Ally Pally on Tuesday!
He seemed more interested in getting a photo with me than I was with him.

We were both so excited that someone had hit a 180 we went vertical.0

Not a meeting exactly, but I did get an indirect bollocking from Ken Bates when he was Chairman at Chelsea.
It was the day we got a point at the Bridge with a 1-1 draw which we needed to stay up. My mate's brother-in-law was the Chelsea kit man and we got complimentaries (nearly got mullahed when we scored) and access to the players lounge after. Met some of the Chelsea lads and a few of ours although they didn't hang around long, plus Malcolm MacDonald.Then me and my mate wandered up the tunnel and out onto the pitch, revelling in the history of the place, doing pretend shots and all the twatty things you might imagine. Then an official comes out and somewhat impolitely tells us the Chairman says to get off the f*****g pitch pronto or else. Hey ho, back to the bar.0 -
"Sir Charlie Wright" used to take us for football and tennis when I was at Eltham Green school in the 60s. Used to laze about smoking most of the time. Dick Plumb (the original) did it for a while too.Kap10 said:Harry cripps and pat Holland used to take us for football at School, still remmeeber bouncing off harry Cripps - a real brick shit house.

On a boys holiday in Tenerife in 98 two scouse lads in the room next door to one of ours tagged along with the 8 of us for a week who turned out to be Steven Gerrard and Alan Wright, not bad lads at the time.0

Malcolm Macdonald, I'd forgotten about him. Got a programme from a home game against fulham from the early 80's signed by him when he was their manager. It's also signed by john motson, David Hamilton and Dave Mehmet!Davo55 said:Not a meeting exactly, but I did get an indirect bollocking from Ken Bates when he was Chairman at Chelsea.
