Thanks to everybody on this.  Should I mention it when I meet him?  hmmmmmm ??? ::)

I remember a bloke standing next to me at an evening game a couple of years back who I recognised, then he asked me if I was me, we chatted then he went off for a cuppa leaving behind his companion.  That guy said, "he used to play for this lot you know!"  I knew very well that he hadn't, he did used to play for a pub team in Sale on a Sunday but wasn't very good at that never mind anything of a better level.  When the bloke I knew returned, I decided to say nothing, I kept the truth to myself. 

Debating whether or not to do the same

When I was ten we met two boys on holiday who claimed to be Eddie and Frank Gray of Leeds United. As one was about 13 and the other 15 even with my liimited knowledge of football at that age I thought it was unlikely.

In situations like that (and similar things have happened to me) rather than being bothered by the lies themselves, I would be more upset that they felt I was gullible enough to swallow their tales.

It's a scandal

Did he also have a hit in the 60's with "Let There Be Drums" ?......Ah no, that was Sandy Nelson. Don't think he ever turned out for us either.

A burgeoning football career cruelly stopped in its tracks on moving to a rugby playing grammar school. Such a shame my one and only school team goal against Tyntesfield (I think) was in the pre-Youtube era. Marvellously shinned in from two yards. Could've played for Alty me.

He's had a chat with his chum Gideon and they've opened another bottle of Champagne.
