Met Willie Mason in Sydney the night after he had won the NRL with the Doggies (2004)

Met Jamie Lyon at Manly v Souths at Brookie in 2008.

Met Gordon Tallis before Titans v Broncos at Skilled Park in 2008. He was doing TV.

I used to play for Hull Isberg when Des "Dishy" Harrison was our assistant coach.....absolute nutter.

Played against Bright Sodjie when he was playing for Sheffield Hillsborough Hawks.

Was at Cosalt when Andy Dannatt was a joiner there.

Played against Chris Smith while he was playing for Heworth (York).

Had a altercation with Ikram Butt during a game. Cant Remember who he was playing for.

Used to play in same team as Radders and Paul King.

Used to play for Beverley (when I was a pup) with Gary Chatfield and Paul Hunter.

Many many more....

Seen loads of players put and about, but Andy Dannatt changed my gas meter last year. I wasn't taking a lot of notice of him. He commented on the two clubs' badges I've got on an internal window and had a bit of a chat about the Hull teams. Mr W. came in and asked him if he was related to Andy Dannatt, he said 'I am Andy Dannatt'! Felt a bit silly not recognising him.

He can knock out a tune.

I was in Yates bar in town around 1994 with the lads, when someone bumped into my mate Jimmy spilling his beer, turned out to be Anthony Sullivan, Jimmy wasn't happy and wanted to have words with him untill we pointed out who he was with. Bobbie Goulding, Adam Foggerty, Apollo Perillini, Tommy Martyn and Vila Matuatia, we decided it was best to take our mate elsewhere haha.

Played against aizue's son and he was there
Saw danny houghton in h&m st stephens, saw craig hall in tesco at st stephens and mike burnett in nandos. Think it's funny that I get excited when I see players, like they're not normal people

went on holiday to riu tequila in mexico this year and bumped into robbie paul....played against paul fletcher when he played for eastfield at shakespeare school were hull kr play now...john millington brought the challenge cup across to new inn pub and my old man still has the photo of me drinking lemonade(was only 10) out of it

When paul cooke said in the hdm that if anyone wanted to know the truth about his move to kr tgat they should ask him to his face so I was in crownpub on holderness road and thought heres my chance to get some things off my chest , as I aproached him I went to put my hands on the table and knocked his pint along with a couple more all over him haha it didnt go down well , he asked me to get him a new drink so I said ok but I never did ( I mean get a dobbins player a drink ... I doubt it)

Shannon Mcdonnell in Sugar Mill last night. Said that his knee was fine and the way that he was busting shapes on the dance floor i reckon we will see him again this year.
Jamie Thackray, Tommy Lee and Danny Tickle also in there. It was like a who's who in there last night.

Saw Sam Thaiday in the Museum of Natural History in New York in Nov 2010, think he was a bit surprised someone in NY recognised himA

See James Webster with his lad at Hull Wyke (hes in the cubs) on a saturday morning

Kris Welham was coaching Myton, same age as my lads upto last season, dont think hes doing it this year

Rovers players were told pre-season that they couldnt coach any other clubs junior sides due to a link up that we had in the pipe-line with East Hull. A link up that i dont think even happened. If i had been Kris Welham in paricular i would have told Rovers to get stuffed.

Anyway, more sightings. Saw Lloyd Offori and several members of the Rovers under 16s Scholarship squad (who i wont name for obvious reasons) in Fuel.

Someone cant have told David Hodgson that rule then and Scott Taylors done a little bit too

Roger Millward was at the end of season presentation for my lads junior side in Kippax. I had to give my 10 year old a history lesson about what a great player really is.

One of my best mates married Johnny Whiteley's edest Granddaughter. He gave me a lift to Piper from the KC after we beat Bradford to get to the 2006 GF (took about 45 min to walk across the carpark to his car).

Also shared an hour or so with him between the dinner and the reception at the wedding last year. I drank a bottle of red, he drank coke and told me about the old GB tours.
