Topic: Guess who I just met in the Asda?

[rich87]

Dennis Law in Terminal3 Manchester airport havin a mare with security, smiled throughout, gent.

I had a run in with him a few years ago at the 2006 Open Championship Golf Tournament.

At the time I was only about 17/18 and hadn't a clue who this bloke was. I was working at the VIP Car Park, and he came in, in a huge big 4x4 and just parked it centre of the Field.

I walked over and said, you can't park here, you have to park next to another car... As we're parking in rows, you being there could mean we lose space for about 40 cars, thanks to your sheer arrogance.

(Bearing in mind he completely ignored at least 6 people who were pointing and asking him to pull over to talk to us)

Anyway he decided he'd throw his weight around a little bit, I'm a small bloke (height wise) and he pushed me, and so I radio'd for security who, when arriving, took me to one side, and said, you know who that is; and I said, not a clue, just some arrogant prat, thinking he owns the place, i'm in charge, and if you don't get him to move you can inform him his car will be towed away, anyway the security guard said Ex-Manchester United Star Dennis Law...

So I thought brilliant, walked back to this bloke who I had no idea who he was and said, if you don't want to get charged for an assault and don't want your car towed away; i'd suggest moving it quickly; because I hadn't a clue you were a Manchester United player before; but I'm sure our Tow truck driver Chris, whose a die-hard LFC fan, will be only to pleased to find that information out...

Needless to say, we didn't see him after that, he drove out the car park and didn't return.

Dont believe you lad, you were prolly being a jobs worth. The guy (football legend) had his pockets rummaged through, hand luggage swabbed, wife and family in tow held up and humiliated ( along with mine over me daughters ipod) and he just smiled at me and said "ridiculous". Not sure your anecdote sheds you in a good light, bit small time regardless of wtf 'chris' is.

Wife was flying to Dusseldorf from Manchester yesterday during the late afternoon flight and was sat next to Emre Can. Had a few people shake his hand. Question is: What's he doing flying to Germany the day after the game? Would of thought he'd be in training.  I know we bought him from Leverkusen so he may well have been visiting his family/mates but I would of thought what with Hendo's injury he'd be staying in Liverpool.  Bit confused at this.

[Alan_X]

Bumped into Colin Farrell going into a newsagent on Marylebone High Street. Looked a right scruff.

Posted an instagram with his mates so I guess if it's only a 2 hour flight or something and he's got the cash he could pop there and back for a day if need be and be back for training.

[Hoppy]

Saw Ronnie Whelan at The K Club just outside of Dublin a couple of weeks back.  He was there to play in Ronan Keatings golf day with various other 'celebs', whilst we played golf on the other course.  Stephen Graham was on our flight over from Brum and he was also playing.

Apparently Ian Wright had a few too may lagers on the evening and took one of the sponsors Volvo's and drove it straight in to one of the practice bunkers!!

Sat in Nandos on Monday noon and Jay from Eastenders comes in to pick up a delivery. Didn't look like he paid either.

[Floydy]

She used to sit in the Kremlin Road stand I think.

Didn't she used to live on Moscow Drive?

[macca888]

Bumped into Colin Farrell going into a newsagent on Marylebone High Street. Looked a right scruff.

He was on the telly on some chat show or other and Mrs Macca says to me "He looks really dirty him." So I said "Aye fucking aye, if I said some girl on the telly looked like a dirty minx, you'd have a fucking face as long as the rent man's mac." She said "I don't mean like that. I mean he looks like a scruffy twat who needs a good wash." 

[macca888]

I'm sure he must have got his end away. She looked hot to Trotsky.

[DeLeiva]

Saw Ronnie Moran at the Bootle FC game last week, looking well.

[Crosby Nick]

He's asked her for a second date but she's being very evasive. Personally I think she's Stalin.

[Fiasco]

It's because he hasn't got much going for himself. She doesn't like dating no Marx.

Don't Tsar him with same brush as you and Macca.

[macca888]

I don't know why she's being so coy all of a sudden, Nick. She's been Putin it about all over town, so I've heard.

[Anfield89]

I think I did pretty well out of season as far as meeting folk.  I went to an evening with Robbie Fowler with 3 mates brought the cheap seats and ended up getting a free upgrade to VIP table and we all met him got his autobiography/shirts signed.

Then the following Monday a went along to the Hilton with a friend who is doing all the shoots for a Liverpool captains book that is coming out and met Gerrard (he wasn't happy as nobody told him he was doing a shoot) and Carragher who was a pisser. Also met Jason McAteer in there too but not sure why he was lurking about.

Or maybe he's mellowed in the decade that's passed since then, or maybe he was on his best behaviour with his family at the airport, or maybe he was just having a bad day on that day in 2006? I'm not sure needlessly having a go shows you in a great light either...

[chrisevry]

Couple of years ago one of my mates married one of Kenny''s daughters. At the wedding, on one table was Alan Hansen,  Terry Mac, Steven McMahon and Ronnie Whelan.

Got absolute trollied and ended up trying to talk to Ronnie. I said "it's mad being here with you lot. I watched my video of Liverpool 5 vs forest nil at Anfield in1988 over and over when I was a kid. Must have watched it a hundred times. Best Liverpool performance I've ever seen".  His reply, " I was injured - Niger spackman played in midfield." I walked off feeling like a TWAT.

Apparently later on I was sat at the table with them all talking for ages but was so pissed I haven't a scooby what we talked about.

Got a nice pic with Kenny though that takes pride pf place on the mantle with the family photos.

Fairdoes that must have been quite surreal. 

The most surreal 'celeb' moment I have had was getting pissed with & arguing all night with Carl Barat at Wakestock, then having the lads out of Dirty Sanchez tell me i'd gone too far with a prank when I got them to pull down someone's tent with me and drag it to the toilet block (they thought I knew the person inside the tent).

Lot of maybes in there, but maybe your right,  I was still fewmin.

Edit; havin read his post back- "we could lose 40 places due to your arrogance" well in reallity at worst with car park spaces its only gonna be 1 bud, but whatever, lets move on.

Just ran into Daniel Sturridge in the LJMU campus, I reckon he was seeing a physio / biomechanist. He asked me if I have a card to open a door to the elevators. You fucking bet I did. Wished him luck this season and told him I can't wait to see him play.

Made my morning!

Even though he played for both Manchester clubs, the guy is by all accounts a gent. I am sorry but your story doesn't ring true for some reason.

Everyone has an off day I suppose but not as you describe. In 2006 how old was he ? Late 60's surely you could have shown him some respect and not threatened him.

Emre Can outside Costa Coffee on Old Hall Street.

My brother saw Mignolet having a bite and a pint in The Fisherman's Rest Southport last Tuesday.

Just been in the ASDA. Nobody famous there at all.

Bought some clotted cream.

Was at a wedding last night and ex chelsea player and now pundit clive walker was there. Spoke to him for a good while and dropped a few choice comments about Mourinho every chance I could. Fair play to him didn't really bite and wasn't too bad to talk footy with.

Met former Leeds-striker Michael Bridges in a restaurant in Sydney last year. He and his bird was sitting to the table next to me and the girlfriend. I saw him so I politely asked if he was indeed was Michael Bridges and he goes: "Yeah it's me mate, footy fan?" and I said yes to that, so we started talking about footy for like 2 hours(both our birds were probably sick to death to listening to that conversation). I said I was a Liverpool-fan and he started talking about how highly he held Robbie Fowler and how both himself and Fowler could have been an England striker-partnership if it wasn't for injuries.

Really nice lad, down to earth and everything. Bought me and the girlfriend dessert as well!

Adam Lallana in Vue cinemas, Southport tonight with his missus. He was seeing Straight Outta Compton.

He needs to express himself a little more in his game.





I'll get me coat

I'll get me coat 

Straight outta St Albans, crazy mother fucker called Lallana
You'll never catch him eating a banana
He's secretly a farmer, and a charmer,
And when he goes on holiday it's always to Havana.




I think that could be a hit.

I saw Cyril Nri near Leicester Square. The name may be unfamilar. He appeared in This Life years back and also The Bill where he played Adam Okaro. I don't know why I remembered his name although it ain't household (it's Cyril).

Anyway, I said "Alright Cyril". He looked surprised. I think he pretended he knew who I was or was buying time to remember. Maybe he thought I was an agent and could get him a job.  Anyway, he stopped to say "Hey, how's it going?" I hadn't stopped walking so I said "Good, thanks" over my shoulder. I didn't look again so maybe he's still standing there wracking his brains.

A few years earlier I saw the ageing lady who played Nana Moon in Eastenders. She was grotesquely rouged and looked confused. I didn't know her real name so the opportunity to do a pre-Cyril was denied. Her loss. She's dead now.

Now I'm on a roll, I can reveal a sighting of buxom beauty Kelly Brook and her then beau Jason Statham at Strood Cinema about 15 years ago. She's had a few more since, and that ain't no beau jest. Anyway, she was wearing loose fitting clothing so I was unable to ogle her famous figure although I can reveal she is somewhat fun-sized. Statham was walking in an aggressive manner, moving his shoulders side-to-side and with a pronounced bounce in his step. He was very short and his head was shaped like an anvil. He seemed very protective, Little did he realise their love would not last the distance. I wonder if her mates ever call her "Kell"? It must be confusing if she's ever out watching the Welterweight division.

David Nugent and family plus another unidentified footballer and family at Sherwood Forest Center Parcs, earlier today. Bet they are in one of those expensive treehouses.
