Fulham Broadway 17,312 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 End of Feb 2005 went into the Shakespeare pub in Bristol for a couple of after work liveners and to meet a mate. Pub was empty at around 6.30pm. Got a pint then did a double take as sat in the corner was Peter Osgood. He was having a red wine before going next door to the Unicorn Hotel to talk to the Bristol City players in some motivational after dinner do. They say you should never meet your heroes as you'll be disappointed, but I wasnt -chatted to him for over an hour about old games, He talked about the pub he ran with Hutch, how Ramsay was a snob and didnt really like him which was why he wasnt picked for that Brazil game. He was also very bitter about Ken Bates who'd shown him the door at Stamford Bridge in his ambassador role. but he had some great stories. Also anecdotes about George Best. He bought me another 2 pints and my mate one and I bought him 2 red wines. He was my idol as I grew up and as far as I was concerned the best. One of the greatest evenings of my life even though I was bit overawed, he was down to earth and great company. Sadly almost a year to the day he died.

The feeling to have met a true legend, and to know he was as genuine as perceived, the feeling must be unforgettable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fulham Broadway 17,312 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 Never forget it LDN Blue. Still feel privileged -but i now realise he was the sort of bloke who would have talked to any fan. -My mate wasnt sure what was going on when he came over either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arjen Robben 55 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 My favourite footballer of all time is Zinedine Zidane. Never seen a player like him. Totally amazing and can play a whole team on his own (not now, but when we played) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
