Topic: Guess who I just met in the Asda?

[Paulie's Wallnuts]

I'm not arsed about him personally couldn't give a fuck but sooner or later the papers will get hold of him doing something pissed and it makes the club a bit of a laughing stock.

You clearly do otherwise you wouldnt say:-

I've seen AYre in loads of different places around town, bladdered acting the goat - restaurant bar and grill, heebie jeebies, peacock and salt dogs and alma. Hes got more than 15 years on me and I feel old in some of those places he sticks out like a sore thumb. Deffo not becoming of a CEO of Liverpool

[Oddball]

Ian Ayre is always upstairs in Salt Dogs in town. He needs to get a grip, he is about 50 and is acting as if he is Gerrard and 20 years of age. Not what you would expected from the CEO of Liverpool.

Gerrards not 20 though

He goes ti Heebie Jeebies??

Fuckin hell I felt old in that place and I was 22 at the time. Class spot though.

[G a r y]

Fucking hell mate, you need to get a grip if you're seriously worried about how Ian Ayre is acting outside of his job!

Don't think anyone is losing sleep about it. Just think it's a bit weird that the CEO of LFC is hanging round in 'young' bars each weekend. He is about 50 and acting like he is still Jack the lad. Don't get me wrong I love a good night out myself, but i'd like to think I won't be still in clubs trying to relive my youth when i'm his age.

Just met Coutinho in Rio.

Was sitting in a  café/bar in my Cou shirt when he walked up to me on his way out. I think someone in the staff had  told him that there was a Liverpool fan there cus we where sitting in a corner in the shadow. Signed my shirt. His bird looked boss   

Sounds like a top guy. You don't often hear of players going out of their way to actually FIND a fan and sign something for them!

[Redzippy]

Just met Sammy Lee, was picking up the dogs from the kennels and there he was picking up his dogs too (really nice fella)... would have missed him aswell if it hadnt been for my 2 dogs deciding to do a shit and then dance in it which meant hanging on until they had been washed.

I was at Nikki beach Marbella the other day and met Luis Suarez ;-)

Was on holiday last week and met ex club doc for 20 years Mark Waller. I know he's not massively well known but had some great conversations with him. Had dinner with him and watched the Italy game with him as well. Asked him a few questions about previous managers, spoke a little about the different styles of the managers and he was very complimentary towards all of them although he didn't seem to like Rafa (which makes sense as he was sacked by him). Says that he reckons Gerrard has only got 1 year left and this is definitely it for his international career. Also said Gerrard was going to retire from England just before he got given the captaincy but wanted the opportunity to captain them at a World Cup.

He probably got fed up of questions towards the end of the match coz I kept asking them coz he's worked with all of the England squad at some point during his work with the U21 (apart from Jones). He was very complimentary of our Hendo and said he's a real hard worker and will play through any sort if injury - which we knew anyway. Was great to chat to a guy that knows his stuff as much as him

[N0rnIr0nRed]

Met Ryan McLaughlin on holiday in Albufeira. Nice chap. I'm sure he was fed up of me asking him questions about Liverpool and the Northern Ireland team. Had a few drinks with his group and wished him all the best for next season.

[Wa11y]

Pulled into a petrol station and former red Layton Maxwell was behind me......he was in a works van

I've met/spoken to Layton a few times through work, without knowing he was, even have him as a contact on a work relaed social network (no plugs here).  Ony realised when other professional footballers kept appearing as 'people you may know'.
I was at his one and only first team game, and have the program.  Keep meaning to messge him to tell hm but don't want to come across as some kind of stalker!

He's a nice guy, nothing was too much trouble.

[bassboy]

I grew up in Barrow in Furness birthplace of Emlyn Hughes. He used to return to Barrow a bit and when I was about 8 years old he came to watch my mini rugby team. My old man was chatting to him and after the match I asked for his autograph and offered him my hand to sign, he laughed said don't be daft go and find some paper and I'll wait here with your dad! I've lost said autograph sadly.

Was on holiday last week and met ex club doc for 20 years Mark Waller.

Was he the doctor who essentially saved Cisse's leg at Blackburn that time?  I'm sure I remember reading an article in which either Doc Waller or Cisse himself tells the story of how the Dr had only recently read an article in a medical journal which covered pretty much the same injury as Cisse had.  I think he had to pull the foot down to free the arteries that feed the foot and thus kept the foot's blood flow alive.

Seems his wikipedia back my vague memory up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Waller_(doctor)#2004_Ciss.C3.A9_leg_break

I grew up in Barrow in Furness birthplace of Emlyn Hughes.

That's a great story - Emlyn is just one of those people who always seems to come across as one of the most likeable people in the World whenever people recount stories of him.  A big loss.

[Party Phil]

Gareth Bale was a few rows in front of me on my flight back from Bristol to Malaga last night. I was really tempted to ask him for his autograph and then say I thought he was great in American Psycho. Just to see his reaction.

[lionel_messias]

Just met Coutinho in Rio.

Okay you WON the internets for June 12th. You jammy bastard, I was probably changing a nappy at the time.

Met him in Brighouse early 90s I said "Alright Emlyn" and he ( whilst mimicking a Yorkshire accent  ) replied "All rite lad" with a big grin on his face.
Because it was pissing down i shouted back to him "Through the wind and rain Emlyn, through the wind and rain "
Nice guy shame, he's no longer with us.

[Paddock.]

Medal Thief at Haydock Park yesterday, unsurprisingly.

[Glass Kites]

Michael Owen has started playing 5 a side at the same place as us in Deeside these last few weeks. Think the first week he arrived a couple of our lads had a chat with him, but now noone seems too fussed.

I wonder how long it will be before someone kicks the traitorous toad up in the air?

[cookie8]

Not really a 'I met' story but my mate works for sky and got Sturridge on the phone the other day, said he'd get enough goals now Suarez has gone.

[MrRaptorTurtle]

So what you're telling us is that 'Sky Sources' have understood that Sturridge will score more goals this season?

[Millie]

Coutinho was in San Carlo earlier - nice guy but I so want to buy him a belt

[SPLee]

Funny week seen Ross Barkley on lark lane Monday, asked him when he was signing for us..he was sound tbf said 'Im not' so I says 'you are lad, ive read it all over Twitter' him and his mate buzzing haha.

He was on his phone had headset in, looked like it was transfer business so I just gives him the thumbs up to which he duly returned then drove off but not before I got a quick pic, Its fair to say I was buzzing, its a sign lads Im sure of it

Saw Coates earlier with his Girlfriend, both of them dressed like scruffs going to the escalators in L1 Carpark.

Funnily enough there was a white porsche parked just behind me aswell with ****** as the licence, which I'm guessing was his.

Wouldn't that be more likely to be Connor Coady's car?

[SuperStevieNicol]

3 real hard men on Saturday night in the print works in Manchester, Josh Charnley, Dan Sarginson and Anthony Gelling followed by the midfield maestro (and sun bed king by the looks of things) that is Dean Whitehead in the Manc Arena. His chin is bigger in real life.
