Noodles34 Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Last night i met Billy Mitchell at West Ham. I have also met the fit bird from some tv show and her boyfriend Will Mellor at Old Trafford, they were sat in front of us. And Graham Taylor, ex FA Chief at Anfield but I thought it was Grahm Hiley from the Echo, and said 'Hello Graham, how you doing?' and obviously he replied, weird! I dont think the last one counts as its a football related person, should be non football celebs really.
Hatch Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Bernard manning told me to fuvk off at Maine Road once.
Thedelldays Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 jim davidson sat in a Box behind me in the itched when we beat charlton in the prem (on sky) 3-2 a fair few years ago

Saint_lambden Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 I didn't meet him/haven't met him but apparently Frankie Cocozza was a 'special guest' of West Ham last night? Why nobody kicked him in the face I'll never know.
once_bitterne Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 The legend that is Sid Owen at Upton Park....
Lets B Avenue Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 We use a pub in Islington before Arsenal v Saints and on seperate occasions I have exchanged banter with Jeremy Paxman and Alan Davies. Also went to Stamford Bridge in 1980 for the first floodlit cricket match in this country. Sat next to Sue Lawley and she liked the Police song about her.

LOL ... probably wasted on most people on here! I always find myself singing Sue Lawley instead of So Lonely everytime I hear it!! See you didn't add me to your list, as although we must have only been feet away from each other in the pub at Burnley (and The Cricks in Eastleigh!!) we didn't speak!! Where were you at Forest I went in the pub you mentioned and you weren't there ... or were you LOL.

Where were you at Forest I went in the pub you mentioned and you weren't there ... or were you LOL. Yes both before and after the match. Spoke to Steve Keenan and the London Saints who were there after. Didnt think to start the 2012 season of "Where's Eric?"
Johnny Bognor Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 was he hard as fuk...? What the mutual friend or me?

The Majestic Channon Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 sat next to peter duncan from blue peter at stamford bridge in 84, very chatty, infact i could hardly shut the **** up all match.
saintmatt77 Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 David Walliams, Matt Lucas, David Schwimmer, Bob Wilson and Robert Pires at the Emirates a couple of years ago, oh and Theo Walcott - well it was his box. It was versus Pompey, think the gooners won 1-0.
FloridaMarlin Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Sitting in press boxes does give you an advantage, and it's easy to punctuate this with the CLANG!! or names being dropped. You rub shoulders with all sorts of famous ex-players - Gullitt, Leonardo - who are working as pundits, before games. But my favourite people who have ponced their way into press boxes include Robert Plant at Wolves, Michael Grade at Charlton, and Billy Crystal at New York Mets (but then he does own a chunk of the club). Oh, and I once got into a lift with Merlene Ottey in Barcelona.
thegaffer Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 My missus had her pic taken with him so can confirm he was there.I didn't meet him/haven't met him but apparently Frankie Cocozza was a 'special guest' of West Ham last night? Why nobody kicked him in the face I'll never know.

Supersubpuckett Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 at a corporate lunch , ex sunderland chairman bob (?) murray at York races, about 2000/1 - i was bemoaning lowe but he seemed to like him and thought we'd be alright with him in charge.
LaptopSaint Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Robert Plant when we played Wolves once. He was eating a burger, and I said pass the ketchup.
VectisSaint Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Who the phuck's Billy Mitchell? This. I thought this was about famous people.
Glasgow_Saint Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Lucy Pinder tried to kiss me at SMS a few years back!

Weston Saint Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Yep, season ticket holder and friend. Sits next to me at SMS.
VectisSaint Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Who the phuck's Billy Mitchell? Apparently he is either known for recording high scores in classic video games or he is a fictional character in East Enders (so technically does not exist). So, none the wiser, certainly don't think he is famous, even remotely. I once met Martin Chivers at Highbury, he had broken his leg after ho joined Spuds and was sitting in the stand. I spoke to him and he autographed my programme. If I knew when he broke his leg I could work out how old I was, I would guess about 14.
Dan Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 Met Emile Heskey in the Hilton Hotel bar in Sofia in September after Bulgaria v England. Also met Noel Gallagher on a train back from Manchester to London after Huddersfield away 2 years ago.

krissyboy31 Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 We use a pub in Islington before Arsenal v Saints and on seperate occasions I have exchanged banter with Jeremy Paxman and Alan Davies. Many moons ago, in the Angel pub shared a few drinks with 'Arfur' Mullard.
Channon's Sideburns Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 I once spent an entire Cross Channel ferry journey between Soton and Cherbourg drinking with Peter Rodrigues. He was steward at Shirley Con Club at the time, and told me he'd rather talk footie with me. My old man didn't believe me when I got back.
so22saint Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 had a curry with Stewpot from Grange Hill in London after Arsenal won the double about 10 years ago. amusingly went into the Bailey pub at Highbury & Islington tube last year and he was still propping up the bar there. my Dad literally bumped into John Major at the Dell on boxing day when we beat Chelsea 3-1 and Frankie Bennet scored the 3rd. opened toilet door onto him
Hockey_saint Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 The first game I ever went to at the Dell, Emilyn Hughes r.i.p, was sat right in front of us.

Katalinic Posted 15 February, 2012 Posted 15 February, 2012 I watched the Saints v Liverpool Valentines Day game c.1994 when Le Tiss scored a hat-trick in the snow in a pub in Swansea with the guy who was Danny Kendall in Grange Hill.Just say no kids.
