2004 or 2005? I was at one of those myself actually, didn't meet anyone famous though
it was brilliant, remember when I met cantona he was some size and it I was just in awe of him... very polite man as well.
Don't know id say it was around then... Vodafone sponsored it, best part was during the breaks when the hot Vodafone girls all came out and sprayed water on everyone (including themselves) to keep everyone cool.....

I was travelling back from Krakow to Ireland during the volcano ash cloud a few years ago. Had to take a bus all the way from Krakow to London. While waiting for a connection, saw Marouane Fellaini passing me. Said "hello Marouane" and he said hello back. Nice guy. As he walked on, I told him he should join United in a few years.
He took my advice.

I was there in 2004, so no cantona, have the programme still. Cantona took over the following year I think. It was in Santa Ponsa in 05. Not the best sport in the world though0 -

I was buying a music cassette (remember those?) about 20 years ago in a music shop and Gordon Strachan was standing behind me.
He's tiny.

I was on a plane to Newcastle and niall Quinn was on it when he was sunderland chairman, was funny as everyone else was normal height his head stuck about a foot over the seat as he was so tall!! I asked him when we landed did sunderland need any wingers as I was available...he just laughed and said not at the minute!!
In line with the rest of your posts today, I was expecting this part to read like:
"he laughed and said, sure I'm on my way to the training ground if you fancy a quick trial! So I went along and nutmegged Titus Bramble before scoring 3 hat-tricks and winning World Cup Pick-A-Partner with Liam Lawrence. But I didn't sign because I had a better offer form Turin."

I met Paul Scholes. My boss was involved in a charity ball and Scholes was the special guest. Boss picked him up from the airport and asked me would I like to collect him from his hotel on the Sunday morning and drive him to the airport. One of the most down to earth people I've ever met. Dropped him the wife and a couple of friends of his back. Chatted the whole way from Powerscourt to Airport. Get to the airport and he asked did I have anything to get signed (I had 2 copies of his book and a jersey in the boot) Also had no problem getting a photo taken, his mate took a couple to make sure they turned out. A proper gentleman and a very knowledgeable and humble. Only pity was it was before he came out of retirement, wish he had have dropped that into conversation, would have cleaned PassyPower out

Well no, my cousin & I queued in the hotel he was staying at for several hours to get in a picture with him. We did and were delighted.Maximus Alexander wrote: »Depends. Did the two of you go on a week long bender in Las Vegas and do coke off hookers' backs before he brought you on stage to shred his guitar, or did he just say hi and give you an autograph?

when one person spews the amount of stuff that a certain poster has you'd doubt anything he says...
no one else has been called a liar 0 -

Hey, I initially took it as a joke but you were on the windup after that.
Lets just let it be..
Truce and all that.
On the windup by suggesting your google search history contained an over-abundance of the word "balls".
I don't think I've ever met anyone who would be wound by that before now. I guess I crossed the line, either that or you are taking the internet too seriously. Shalom either way.0 -
