    Just spent the weekend in Mayfair with a friend and were in the same hotel as Kanye West. Bumped into him in the lobby a couple of times and acknowledged each other without really saying anything. Too much security to attempt to start a proper conversation :-(

    As a younbg lad I had the honour and privelige of being coached by the late Sir Bobby Moore on a week long holiday at Butlins. Didn't know he'd be there, so just fluke. But what a great man. He was really genuine and down to earth and had loads of time for everyone. Spent about 6 hours every day taking football coaching for the kids and mixed with everyone really well. Legend.

    The coaching doesn't seem to have worked for you though.

    Met a few footballers at dinners etc but the one mad random chance meeting which i would describe as star struck was Romario. Couldn't have much of a convo with him like as he couldn't understand a word I was saying.
