Woodgate, though I sharp thought he was a wanker again shortly after he left. Saw him at Retro at Tall Trees in a pink shirt drinking alcopops when he was injured for Madrid

not someone i thought was a wanker but an anecdote none the less

 

When i was a kid we stayed in a hotel in cork while on holiday, i must've been 8,

First night celtic stayed there, met Packie Bonner etc.

The second night Leeds were there.

 

I ran around both nights getting autographs etc not knowing who people were tbh, morning after Leeds arrived i ran ahead at breakfast while my parents got ready in the room, plonked myself down at a table beside a lone footballer i recognised from the night before and started to talk crap to him about the teenage mutant ninja turtles and how awesome Bonner was in italia90, parents arrived 10mins later and to Dads amazement to see me having weetabix and toast with Gordon Strachan ;)

 

chatted to dad for a while but seemed nice and down to earth anyways

All right, Bernard Manning, calm yourself. This is a family run business.
