That's intriguing...what did you put in front of him? And more to the point what did you put in front of him that he refused to sign?
...onwards & upwards PUSB

Brian Borrows is a really nice fella who still lives in Coventry. If anyone other than Robins is to lead the team out at Wembley it should be him, given he missed out 30 years ago.Remember the meet and greet City did at the new Broadgate in 95? Oggy was the only regular who didn't turn up, I'm sure.
Sean Flynn, Brian Borrows and Ally Pickering were the most friendly of the bunch, Bugsy especially.
Asked Dion for his autograph and he barked: "where's ya pen?!" at me, amidst a hail of spittle. Nob.
Borrows used to live very close to where I grew up in Stivichall, probably still does. Often saw him walking his Weimaraner in the Memorial Park. Always said hello.Brian Borrows is a really nice fella who still lives in Coventry. If anyone other than Robins is to lead the team out at Wembley it should be him, given he missed out 30 years ago.
Loving the new Avatar. Good to see the TM love in has ended and you're onto 'new (ish) meat'. Good work ;-)
Bugger this for a game of soldiers, I'm changing my avatar to Tony Mowbray!!he was nice to me and gave me autograph. i was 10 though
You can bet your bottom dollar he hasn't spent much of it .He's 60 in September. One wonders how long he will carry on coaching beyond that. He must have made a lot of money over the years.
Great call along with young Bradley Lowery .Brian Borrows is a really nice fella who still lives in Coventry. If anyone other than Robins is to lead the team out at Wembley it should be him, given he missed out 30 years ago.
The dog always said hello ? BGT quick !Borrows used to live very close to where I grew up in Stivichall, probably still does. Often saw him walking his Weimaraner in the Memorial Park. Always said hello.
I agree , when Oggy was still playing , had a corporate meal and stadium tour before a game at HIghtfield Road,The bloke is a miserable fook every time I have spoke to him. I used to work at Henleys when we were sponsored by Peugeot and he used to have his car serviced etc there. If you said morning how's things he would just sigh as if I had asked him for £50.
See him in the Open arms and Burnt post every now and again but wouldn't give him the steam off my piss. Arrogant miserable fook.
You only take people as you find.

As opposed 2 Tommy Hutch n' Jim Blyth hugging me [Not in a Savile way] after a game n' having a pic taken. tut tut oggy !Went up to him once as an eager 7 year old when we played Sheffield Wednesday away in the prem days..asked him for an autograph and he told me "fuck off I'm training"....thought my dad was going to smack him. Miserable prick

Once walked into me in a petrol station, he said sorry.
Exclusive
Sounds like a Daz advert!!I seen him once in a petrol station wearing cricket whites. He didn't walk into me or say sorry but did hold the door open for me as I was going in and he was leaving.
Exclusive 2.
Is that the day oggy scored
I am genuinely jealous!!As opposed 2 Tommy Hutch n' Jim Blyth hugging me [Not in a Savile way] after a game n' having a pic taken. tut tut oggy !
More like the start of a pornoI was eating a jam doughnut at the time
We had ndlovu do football presentations, now I know he was probably only there to damage the mums.On a more general point would be interesting to hear more about which players were nice and not at all nice off the pitch. My old man used to run one of the Coventry primary schools football trophies and would always get a Coventry player to present the trophy for the final. I recall seeing Stewart Robson and Brian Borrows (both of whom were great), Kilcline (who was very weird) and one year Phil Neil turned up himself to present it - nice guy. Can't imagine many Premier League bosses doing that these days. Can't remember which other players came down. My dad had Micky Gynn in to do some coaching at his school and always said what a good bloke he was but I never met him.
Yeah, call me sentimental, but I do like my heroes to be good guys too.On a more general point would be interesting to hear more about which players were nice and not at all nice off the pitch.

Goalkeeping coach.What exactly is club foots role at the club now? I know its good to keep old boys about the place, but he has carved out a nice retirement gig for himself.
