    Nobody! Absolutely nobody of any note whatsoever. I played with a guy called Andy Jones who later played for and managed Paulton Rovers - he's slightly locally famous for when they played Norwich in the FA Cup a few years ago (lost 7 nil) but thats it, and strretching it at that. :emoticon-0102-bigsm
    I was fast, dirty and vindictive - one of my old pub team managers told me I was more suited to the battlefield than the playing field, so I never played at a level where good players were likely to risk their bones.

    Tenuous but I loved it; I've had a kick around with Matty and Bally (RIP) at Bally's grandson's 3rd birthday party!

    That definitely counts!

    Easily one of the nicest people I have met. Gutted when he went; one of life's true gentlemen!

    I tried to chat up one of his daughters at his 50th birthday party. Does that count?

    Haha, that may well have been Keely; an amazing lady. She was the spit of him but beautiful-think they call that a paradox!?

    I got back in touch with Jimmy about 15 years ago and then lost contact again.

    I forgot about Jim Steele. Pretty sure he played in that match as well.

    None of those guys were very good though. Kept getting scored on by eight year olds!
