I once had my shorts pulled down by Tony Millard.
hmmmm Ian Hart told me a story about something like that at the sponsors dinner last April, but as they used to say in Hammy Hamster thats another story !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The shagging of Kurt Nogan is a clear leader so far although the quip about Millard and pulling down someones shorts made me laugh out loud!

I've got a couple more:

My second cousin is Dan Beck

Kevin Bremner told me to f*** off when I was giving him gip from the old 'Chicken Run' as did Perry Digweed when me and bunch of schoolmates were taking the piss out of him during a reserve game

Micky Adams was trying to pull my missus until I told him she was my wife and I didn't really work for Southern Counties radio, the blag I used to attend his manager of the month dinner (Remember Harty!!!), top bloke - laughed his head off and bought me a drink!
 


Danny and my older brother were triers - work hard, be polite to the manager, put out the cones, etc. to get ahead.

In my year group there was Jack Dineen and his mate Mike Dean [younger brother of Albion photographer Bennett] who had all the quality and zero application!

My younger brother's Preston Panthers team a couple of years below had the real ability - Jeff Bloor, Justin Gregory [off to Anfield with Havant next week] and others.

Went to Newman with Jack Dineen and Mike Dean, was in the same form class as them in the 2nd year.
We had a really good football team in that year, I was shit so never played for them!
I seem to remember Jack got thrown out of the Albion after a few substitute appearances due to smashing a window up town? I maybe wrong about this though. He went on to play for Crawley as well as Scarborough, did he play for Worthing too? He was also in the Republic Of Ireland U21 squad too.
Mike Dean watches the Albion, I have seen him in the South Stand from time to time.

My dad did the cartoons in the Programme in late 70s. Cyril and Cecil the C-Gulls. We used to get in for free.

Steve and Joe Gatting once came along on a works fishing trip out of Littlehampton.

Mick Small ate at the restaurant I was working in (Sorrentos) on the night of the play off semi home leg

Sectretary used to work with once went out with Rod Thomas...which was strange as she was sort of goth and from Carlisle

Was there a connection with Scarborough back then as thought Craig Whitington also played for them for while?

What does Mike do now then?

Bennett may be a 40-yr old virgin, but I bet he has more AUTOGRAPHS than you!

Bennett's autograph book is legendary. I used to play in the same team as them on a Sunday afternoon at Hove Rec, Michael was skilful but a bit lightweight.

I hear he made his fortune in property development. Good luck to him.

Bennett and a few others once came to my house in Manchester and stayed for the weekend whilst the Albion were playing at Oldham. The rest of us went out for a kickabout in the morning of the match, but Bennett stayed behind to sample some of my porn stash.

He wanked into a sock, but my dog then grabbed it from him and ran away with it, I returned to find the dog running around with a jizz encrusted sock in his mouth.

Was training with the Albion when Michel turned up for a trial. Was with Keelo, Orms and Walton nearly shit a brick when we saw the size of him.
My first practice there Keelo was a no show, so i practiced with the first team, Micky put us through our paces to begin with, then went into a game. I was 16 and stopped everything bobby could throw at me.
Meet Mullers tons, he and my dad are mates
Played the the Goldstone, as has my Dad
I have some stories about training, but too long to go into.
