unexpected meetings

when the toon played posh

we were allowed onto the team coach with terry mac and kk and the players as they were leaving

but where is the most unusual place you have met a toon player past or present


mine would be phillipe albert who was working on a veg stall on a market in belgium

i had my toon top on as we were on a stag do and baccy run

went to this stall in the market square to get some oranges and bannanas for energy

he served me and i wasnt taking much notice
when he said thats a great team you support
i had me head down and said something like yes cheers

when i looked up i went to pay him and thought i know you from somewhere
as i turned away my mate (also a toon fan suddenly realise it was him )
we had a rendition of the song and a quick chat and of we went

also met gerrard dupodou at the metz game
but he never played for us

Quite a few.

Out for a lunchtime walk at work and bumped into Graham Taylor and Keith Gillespie coaching some kids at rugby club.

Bumped into Aaron Hughes at a sports centre.

Walked by Tom Huddlstone at a coaching clinic, was told Joey Barton was there too but didn't see him.

Not a Toon player, but out jogging and bumped unto Teddy Sheringham coming out of a random cafe in a track suit. Saw Dennis Law, George Best.

Loads more

That must have been a great night for you mate

Met Peter Beardsley quite a few times as my Ex Father in law and Peters Dad were best of mates

He used to come into The Fusiliers at Forest Hall often

My mate Kevin Arnott used to play for the Mackems but he is a staunch Toon Supporter
