Ever the pessimist Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Spoke to him a few times at matches / on trains to matches. Seems a decent guy. Used to reference Wednesday on coronation street at times too apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leaping Lannys Perm Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Loved the subtle Wednesday shirts he used to wear on Corrie. Considering I only ever watched a handful of episodes at my mums and I saw him in Wednesday t-shirts more than once, I assume he did it all the time.

Guest hirsty9 Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Seem to recall him wearing a 'One Touch Owusu' t-shirt at the bar in The Rovers once. The little scamp!

NormOwl Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Shared a taxi with him and Phil king after the reading 5-0 drubbing. Went on to have a few hours drinking with them both. Both great company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompeyowl Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Not sure he was overly keen on me away at Leicester a few years back. I was bladdered and someone told me he was Dunsby, so that's what I called him all day long and wouldn't believe him when he said I was mistaken.

dunsbyowl Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 (edited) I remember ian reddington ( tricky dickie) doing the same in Eastenders And Archie Brookes (actor Tony Pitts) used to wear a Wednesday top at times in Emmerdale ! Not sure he was overly keen on me away at Leicester a few years back. I was bladdered and someone told me he was Dunsby, so that's what I called him all day long and wouldn't believe him when he said I was mistaken. That's because you were out of your head at 10am on the train. Edited November 17, 2015 by dunsbyowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to reference Wednesday on coronation street at times too apparently. Wore blue and white the majority of the time on Corrie.

Whitechapel Owl Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 He loves dropping in the Wednesday stuff, I remember on Soldier Soldier when he's off fighting a war somewhere, he tells another soldier that him and his wife are trying for a kid back home and that one day he hopes to get his son a season ticket on the halfway line of the South stand. He must just relentlessly pester the directors he works with until they give in. Top bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
