Lovely guy.

We shared a cable cart in Madeira.

I saw Bellamy out in Cardiff once, couldn’t believe how small he was, he looked bigger on a football pitch! :hehe:

It was a polite request for a young lad, didn't moan when it was a no and moved on, but found it peculiar that the reason was he was.injured or something and shouldn't be out etc and there were middle aged men craning their necks to get in videos of him (having not asked) wasn't sure what difference it would have made.

Yes he is tiny :hehe:

Re: City players you've seen out and about.

I met Paul Bodin several times at my parents front door.
When he was playing for Bath City he had a part time job with a life insurance company and went around collecting payments

He used to live two doors away from me in Llanrumney. I remember taking him down to a Wales v England game when he was a nipper back in the seventies

About a year or so before he left City I saw Peter Whittingham going into the Tesco in Penarth town.

For some weird reason I recall him wearing flip flops.

Various players in gyms. Surely the club have their own gym? Odd.

Damon searle (when he was a player) at the football pitches in Fairwater. He stopped and had a 20 minute game of 2-touch with us.

Jason Fowler at my friend's house - he was going out with my mate's sister. Not surprisingly, he never wanted to come out for a kick about with us.

Not me, but my dad said he saw Lee Jarman recently working on a neighbour's garden.

I remember sitting on the table next to Rossco at the custom house after a game when he was in his prime with his girlfriend and his girlfriends mother…. Both very nice.

The waitress dropped a glass on their table, I remember feeling quite protective lol

I had a beer with Carl Dale and Nathan Wigg one night in Newport Fugitives cricket club after they’d just arrived back from winning at Darlington. Jason Perry was there too but was more interested on checking out the dance floor.

Bobby Brown in Bookers in Haverfordwest. (He used to run the Rising Sun pub down here)

Re: City players you've seen out and about.

Seen Whitts on Queen Street with a group of boys I assume we’re his mates. All dodgy clobber like that famous photo of the Man Utd team out on the town.

Kav a few times in town. Once queing outside Creation. Funnily enough, he didn’t want to chat with a pissed up teenager from the valleys.

A load of the team in Soda bar at the end of the season. Must have been around 2012. Remember thinking Joe Mason was a young child. Had a pint with Super Kev. Enjoyed that.

Keys in the bowl?

Re: City players you've seen out and about.

Super kev out running near Sophia Gardens. I was running the other direction, with my city shirt on and he gave me a nod.

He was out with injury at the time and I regret not saying 'looking forward to seeing you back soon' or something but there was no time (obviously as I was running so very fast).

I used to chat to him when waiting for my Football Echo on a Saturday night. I also met loads when I was involved at Welsh League level and particularly remember an afternoon chatting with George Wood, who I saw every week, Don Murray and Nigel Rees after a game had been called off. The Giles brothers were also joint managers of my team and they were real characters. Spent an evening with Derek Tapscott when he was invited along as a guest for a game against Barry and Ron Stitfall gave me a bottle of wine he won in the raffle because he didn't drink. Ronnie Bird was often around as well because players in those days frequently stayed involved in local football. More recently, Derek Brazil was a great bloke and finally, I sat next to Brian Clark at a rugby international - he said he loved the atmosphere!

Re: City players you've seen out and about.

The most recent one for me was Gunnarsson shortly before he left the club.

He was sat a few tables away from me in Wagamama with his family in Mill Lane.

Robin Friday, 1.5 hours before a game, lost near Cardiff Bus Station. Put him on the correct bus, resulted in free tickets for me and my mates.

The whole squad a few weeks before the FA Cup final in M+S Culverhouse Cross, going for suit fittings.
