Give it a few months if we're premier league and they'll all be jumping on the band wagon

Heath Ledger once had this in a time shifting King Arthur tale,at least I think it involved the time shifting element.
Nessa in Gavin and Stacey used to be our GK coach.

Thank you! Yep, you can google this and even watch an episode on iPlayer hosted by a young David Vine. A sort of celebrity farmer bloke called Ted Moult is smoking a pipe as the guest supporter for Forest against Arsenal. On IMDb Mike Smith is listed as a 'cast member', so I didn't dream it 🙂

Quite a good game format actually, could easily be modernised.
Pretty sure every team was allowed a guest member and we had WBA keeper Osbourne ( cant remember his christian name) as ours. He proved to be a huge brainbox and we ended up as beaten finalists In one series... or so my poor memory recollects

He used to sit behind me when I was in the stand behind the goal - cant remember the name - was there from 2005 to when they closed it was that 2015?
Coventry evening Telegraph one end and the new Ladbrooks stand at the Swan Lane end.

I think just 'ok' would cover it. He was never getting any further than the reserves, at best.
It's hard to know really, he was only 18 / 19 and a couple of years after that season he developed arthritis. But among other games, I watched the home youth team finals at Highfield road, and he played well, the whole team did, when you consider who was in the Tottenham team.

I think we are scraping the barrel now 😁 reminds me of the Porridge film - Slade versus a celebrity 11 - and a classic line is the third Goodie still coming ? No idea don’t recognise any of them

Yeah, fair. However, I saw him play quite a few, and didn't see much there (my opinion only).
