I was named like a footballer.

Just after i was born, my parents went through a few options and then decided on one. Isn't that the way footballers are named ???

Met Robbie Fowler recently. He is now a large white farmer from Zimbabwe. Think his district is actually Liverpool if I understood him correctly.

Actually, I share my name with an ex and a current player

When we played Swindon a few years back a number of NSC contributors found it amusing to chant that either their manager or I, or indeed both of us, were a wanker.







Probably both of us.
