    A few guys from the group I was with asked him for photos, autographs etc while he was waiting, so we got £20 together and got him a bottle of wine to go with his food. At the time we'd just won promotion to Division 2 (as it was then) and so I approached him to say I look forward to seeing him playing some time at Cardiff City (taking the piss a bit). He laughed and said "you never know".

    3rd round draw and we were home to Leeds......
    You bought a footballer who earnt more whilst taking a piss than you would for an entire year working a bottle of wine. No wonder he was laughing.

    I think that it was the jesture, rather than the value of the wine.
