Saw Suarez with his family in cafe sports express last friday too, didnt think players would go in there knowing it would be swamped with liverpool fans esp on match day!

Are 'backdated' bumping-intos allowed here??

I mean really backdated?

I'm talking 1978?

Picture the scene....

I'm 9 years old and I'm collecting panini footie stickers for the Argentina 78 world cup. I go down to the newsagents with me mate, and we've both been having no luck whatsoever getting Kenny's Scotland sticker, even though our albums are fairly heavy and we've got tons of swaps.

I buy a few sticker packs and me mate's got a couple more bob on him than me, so in order to talk him into buying me a mars bar I tell him that if I get Kenny in my sticker packs, he can have him.

[I really didn't believe that Kenny would be coming out of any of the packs I'd bought, so I thought I was doing good business..]

Yep...you've guessed it, I'm tearing open me stickers and as I'm thumbing through them in front of me mate....out pops the sacred Kenny for Scotland sticker !!!

Talk about a test of character for one so young.

Anyway, me mate looked at me with a " Go on gobshite....make good on your word " kind of look, and I'm proud to say that I didn't even flinch as I handed it over to him.

[Me Pa always taught me to be a man of my word....kind of thing..]

With the benefit of hindsight, If he'd been a real mate...he would have just been happy to test me on this, and having satisfied himself that I was going to hand it over, he should have just pressed it back into me hand knowing just how bonkers I was about Kenny.

But no...he just swiped it right off me with a smirk and that was that !!!

Anyway...

[And this is why I know there IS a God...]

Later that autumn....me Ma and Pa took me and our kid to a *restaurant in Southport. This was a once every few months kind of thing for us because me Pa was by no means minted...

* [The Little Gourmet]

We walk in waiting to be seated, and whose just sitting there finishing off his grub but Kenny and his missus.

I was 9 years old for god's sake and there was me hero just sitting there sucking the fat off his lamb chops!!

Me Ma and Pa clocked him too, and they then looked at me as though sensing the danger of me having a joyous heart attack.

Long story short: [Or is too late for that now?]

Got a handshake and a few nice wee words off Kenny, a signed napkin...[since lost and I'm gutted]...and ended up sitting in the chair he'd just vacated. It was still warm from his arse and I thought I'd died and gone to heaven.

I was 9 years old and I fucking loved the man...

I'm now 42 years old and nothing has changed.

Great that lad, i'm a sucker for the old stories, nice 1.

Saw Vernon Kay and Tess Daly in Marlow the other week. Not football-related, but they're the only two slightly famous people I've ever seen, let alone met, outside of the environment they're known for working in

Surely if the fella at the end just ask him for a photograph he would of? Instead of just standing there like a fucking plum pointing his phone at Ryan.

can kinda confirm this as two of our lads got jobs from that area both going to his house in formby ways.

was gutted it wasnt him ordering the cabs for them to come home, was tempted to say, "not sure where you mean mate, can you put the owner of the house on the phone please?"

my mate picks alex up all the time, he also used to work for the two cancers but i could never convince him to drive them into the mersey. ok he'd have died as well but he'd be a martyr, 79 virgins and the grattitude of millions of reds..... good deal to me.

firm i used to work for pick up a few of the first team, lot of the younger ones too. only one my current firm picks up is royston drenthe. sounds like a dutch barry white on the phone.

oh, and i tried to resist, but the hillfoot is in hunts cross.

ScouserAlec · « **Reply #3017 on:** January 15, 2012, 10:23:37 am »

Yeah knew it was Hunts Cross got mixed up haha. Stevie was in there with his accountant apparently, bit of a random place for him to be?

Does drenthe live in babels old place in hale?

Met Lee Sharpe the other week in Dubai. Said to him "I must warn you, I'm a big Liverpool fan" he says "That's alright, I'm a big Villa fan". He's actually a lovely bloke.

I work in a school and we have an after school Table Tennis club which is funded by both LFC & EFC, anyway Jose Enrique and Sebastian Coates just came in today, the kids where made up. They had no idea they was coming in so you can imagine the look on their faces when they walked in!

They done a little Q&A session aswel and signed photos for all the kids( and staff

Saw Lee Sharpe in the Bar next to Mojo's in manchester about a month ago with some tidy housewifish type. Looked very smart, didnt speak to him as my beer goggle wouldnt focus properly in the gloom.
Realised it was him as he was leaving, seemed pleasant enough as he didnt object to my beer grimacing as was gettin ghim into focus

Just saw Downing in a petrol station in Formby with his missus (who was quite fit but has a rough accent)

Was tempted to ask him to 'do a balotelli' and pay for our petrol, but then realised that I was the only other person in the petrol station!
