Weve had them all. Micah Richard's couldn't stop swearing when interviewed live on the BBC after netting a last minute winner. Unlike King Eric who let his feet do the talking many footballers aren't blessed with a filter to save them from looking like a muppet in front of millions. Ian Holloway is the past master, he says it how he sees it, shame he is always looking the other way. Managers are constantly barricking the men in black and then lose some of their childrens inheritance for the pleasure. So what is the craziest quote you have ever heard from the football world. I reckon Jose Mourinho will feature somewhere along the line. He is the self proclaimed 'Special One' after all!
Walking round the Main Stand on an away visit to Highfield Road many moons ago i was confronted with a creature that no one should face, straight infront of me in the alley was none other than Coventry City centre back Peter Billing (a swift google will reveal all) shocked and ashen faced i ran until i couldn't run anymore then i ran some more. I didnt look back but its stayed with me ever since. Halloween always reminds me of this meeting, luckily since i have only briefing bumped into Kenny Hibbitt in a bar but it can't compete with Oooh Peter Billing. So we want your horror stories of meetings with footballers, did Freddie Sears give you the wobbles, were you frightened by Paul Incey Wincey spider or turned to stone by Anderson.
