Whatever happened to Simmons? Does he still go to football matches?

 

[Marc]

gah they only have audio even though its says "Watch/Listen" at the top

Remember the Gulls Eye cover after that game? It simply featured a picture of Cantona with the words "Vive le France!" written underneath. Also featured an article inside that said "if Cantona wants advice on how to kick the shit out of Palace fans, he's more than welcome to get tips off us".

"Off, off, off! It's an early bath for you Mr Cantona!"
What Simmonds claimed (under oath I think) he shouted at Cantona as he was walking off the pitch.

 

[Lammy]

Apparently he ran down about 11 rows to say that too!

 

[Vinyl Richie]

[Lady Whistledown]

Many happy returns, Eric.

We continue to salute you, a Brighton legend for eternity.

 

[Dunkstar]

Palace fans do seem to have that effect on people don't they.......

 

[MRRF 10]

cantona was playing for brighton

Cantona was a character and his temper brought a spark to Man U. I am sure the reports of what Simmons said is right - after all Palace fans are so polite aren't they??
