Behind The Story podcast - Russell Osman

Recommended Posts

An interesting listen for anyone who remembers watching him play, or those who enjoyed his performance in Escape to Victory.

 

He chats about his time at Saints and why he left, playing against us, Bobby Robson, Pele and his surprise about having to act.

In my 6th Form years, I worked in the bar at the Montagu Arms, Beaulieu part time. One afternoon, a rather attractive lady comes in and she asks me what's it like in the area as they are looking to buy a house, turns out she was Russell Osmans wife and in he walks! They bought a house at the end of the village in the end and he used to come in for a drink reasonably regularly (only half pints though, if I remember correctly!). That must have been during a summer holiday and I left for Uni in London the following Autumn so didn't get to know him that well in that short period, but he was a nice enough bloke.
