Met Bobby George in The Blaydon Races, a karaoke bar in Tenerife in the 90s.
He was with his wife and wearing very little jewellery. ( unlike his darts and tv image).
I was on holiday with a few friends and family.
After a few beers my cousin, who had been glancing over at Bobby, strolled over and said " I know you, don't I"
" Well" replied Bobby in his soft modest voice " you might do"
"Thought so " said my cousin. "Did you used to drink in the Imp?"
He looked a bit confused, but nevertheless stayed and had a few beers with us and was a really nice chap.

Don't know if this counts or not, but I was a mate of Frank Barton, we used to play in Baysgarth Park in Barton with a tennis ball before he became a professional footballer.

Back in the 1990's, used to live a few doors down from " Livvo ". It was on a small cul de sac so everyone sort of had to know each other. Steve was a great bloke, real down to  earth lad. His eldest son who would have been about 7yrs old at the time, used to come round our house as he was pals with my son, footy mad he was so I ended up taking him to watch his dad play. My Mrs and Livvo's Mrs, would go down Cleethorpes to play bingo ( big bingo hall near train station, bet it's flattened now?). Lovely family, shame Livvo had his back problem as when it was under control he was a great player. Then again, if it had been a problem he could have kept under control, he would no doubt still have been at Chelsea or the likes. Happy days.

Met Ruud Van Nistelrooy in Maastrict in 1999. Had a few beers with him as he practiced his English just before he was due to sign for Man Utd. Felt his clicking knee, told him it was buggered but he claimed PSV said it would be fine.He got me and my mates tickets for PSV games. Top bloke to be fair and very grounded, head like a horse. He ended up tearing his ACL a day or two later in training. Anyway, he signed a beermat 'contract' to sign for town when he was 35. But he's 43 now the big snake.
