Which footballers have you met?

[Haillay7]

Met Shay Given in Newcastle Airport when I was a kid and then met him again about 15 years later in a bar in the city centre. The latter was just after he'd finished playing for Villa at St. James' and wasn't too keen with any one chatting with him.

We're due to meet again in about a decade if things carry on.

Oh aye, we saw Watford at the hotel they were staying at pre some match or other back in the day, when I was a kid and John Barnes ruffled my hair.

 

[Pagnell]

That's a euphemism if ever I've heard one.

 

[Stevencc]

Silkyman, as cold as ice, swatted John's hand away and uttered "No".

 

[Red]

I met Larry Lloyd, Archie Gemmel and Ian Bowyer at a charity cricket game once. That is all.
