[Albion] Teddy Maybank Q and A

[Lenny Rider]

Got a charity lunch in Hove on Friday and doing a Q and A with Ted.

Always like to throw in a couple of fans questions, so help required please Gents?

Let‘s keep it sensible

 

[Mackenzie]

Here’s two to start you off Harty.

Did he really pee down one of the pool table pockets at Corals or is that an urban myth, also did he fall over a lot on the football pitch due to having very small feet for his height?

 

[Barrow Boy]

Hi Teddy, is it true you once knocked yourself out in the dugout at The Goldstone when you jumped up after we had scored a goal and hit your head on the dugout roof?

Always wondered why there was a dent in it, (the dugout, not Teddy's head).

Oh well, that answers one question.

I thought it was into the pot plants, but maybe that was Steve Foster

We‘ll find out on Friday!

We‘ll find out on Friday!

My wife was once unfortunate to be in the sauna at Corals when a few Albion players came into the booth, the only female in there. She felt VERY uncomfortable and quickly left

 

[Dick Swiveller]

Was there a casting couch for Blind Date and The Weakest Link? If so, was it Cilla and Anne?

Please ask him, if he really was a silver fox in the box

 

[Icy Gull]

Can’t remember the fee we allegedly paid Fulham but I seem to remember rumours of the quoted fee being bollocks? What was it?

 

[amexer]

does he attend Amex games

 

[POSKETT AT THE VALLEY]

Rumour has it that Mr Maybank‘s underwear was soiled as a result of coming up against Larry Lloyd in the League Cup tie back in the day. Can the truth now be revealed?

Did it not cover an existing and historic debt between Mike Bamber and Fulham owner Ernie Clay?

Long time ago but I seem to remember it may have appeared on a balance sheet, but no money changed hands so to speak.

Did you shit yourself against Forest?

To be fair it won’t be in the first five questions.

Well it is for chariddy!

Hi Teddy, is it true you once knocked yourself out in the dugout at The Goldstone when you jumped up after we had scored a goal and hit your head on the dugout roof?

Think that happened at Orient's ground but yes ask him that. Think he also sustained a knee injury that day - just four games in for BHA - which caused long-term problems.

Did Teddy ever consider a career in the music industry after leaving football?

 

[Poyningsgull]

...ask him about being in Brighton nick dressed as a teddy bear.

We we’re talking about that this morning, it was a period of time when Cortisone injections were the order of the day, but that effectively f***** Teddy’s knee long term and ended his career.

It was the same with Kevin Beattie at Ipswich, Bobby Robson said he was the best player he ever coached in his career, but effectively the injection culture finished his career early and brought on a lifelong drink addiction

 

[Surf's Up]

Does he remember scoring a brace away at Millwall in September 1978 (4-1 away win to the Albion) and taking his top off, flexing his biceps and generally posing in front of the Millwall fans after his second goal?
