Years and years ago I met him. We both used to post on the CVG forums and were the only north easters there really, I was only about 15 and he was a couple of years older. He got me a ticket to the Derby and I sat in the Sunderland end. We beat them 4-1, Shearer scored in his last game, you all know the rest of the story.
This is 100% true and I'm sure Nelford will be happy to confirm. Surprised to see that username pop up again.
I was also in the home end that day and was also 15. Somehow managed to keep myself composed, would go f***ing mental now and probably end up getting a good kicking but it'd be worth it.
There's not enough of them to give a kicking anymore, You'd have a block to yourself
