Curr Avon Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Crikey, this will be embarrassing. Around 18 years ago during a lunchtime trip to the Galleries in Broadmead, I answered a call of nature at the left of three urinals. Staring East I suddenly realised the name of the smooth headed footballer addressing the opposite trough. "IVAN TESTIMETANU!!" I exclaimed, as the shocked Moldovan tried not to drench his shoes. "I won't shake your hand," I continued. Ivan smiled and muttered some platitude. Not my finest hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petehinton Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Bumped into Joe Bryan in the Tesco express in winscombe a few months ago. Think he was walking his dog. Had a subsequently superb £3 meal deal which included a £2.50 naked smoothie. What a fine day it was indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC11 Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Sat behind Nathan Blake during his playing days think he was playing for Baadiff at the time, in the Dolman watching a game, said he was a fan as his old man is from St Paul’s, still not sure if I believe him now! Sat next to Russell Osman on a flight home from the 2006 World Cup, top bloke. Worst I’ve seen is Troy Deeny, stopped in a service station on the way home from an away game with his pals, generally being a dick flashing his wads of cash around.

TheCerneAbbasGiant Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Bumped into Joe Bryan, Korey Smith, Bobby Reid, Aden Flint and Jamie Paterson at a Calvin Harris gig the weekend before last in a nightclub in Vegas.

Lanterne Rouge Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Shared a breakfast table in a Paris hotel with Jose Luis Chilavert and Christian Karembeau (among others) when they played for RC Strasbourg. Derek Dougan once asked me for directions to the County Hotel in Taunton. Saw Alex McLeish scraping dogshit off his shoe at Cherwell services on the M40. Walked past a café in Looe and Colin was sat at a window table having a full English. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was manager at Brum at the time and it was the Monday morning after the PFA(?) awards dinner - he looked a bit bleary, probably why he stepped in it!

alexukhc Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 Served James Ward Prowse and Victor Anichibe in my old job at topman in Basingstoke. Same job I regularly served Liam Kelly currently of Reading until I refused him a refund for a suit cuz he ripped all the tags off, claiming he didn’t buy it(I was the one who sold it to him in the first place) it had been worn and he never returned and got quite stressy. Last I hear he rejected an Republic of Ireland call up cuz he thinks he’s good enough for England, ******* ******** if you ask me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pickle Rick Posted May 22, 2018 Report Share Posted May 22, 2018 I met David Noble in a nightclub (totally unexpected). We got chatting, he bought me drinks and I held his phone whilst he took a piss just off park street. Then we exchanged numbers. Saw him again in the centre and we was all like ‘FRIEND’! True story.
