Meeky 0 Posted October 25, 2006 Walked into the stand and sat down. Then realised who was sitting in front of me! Our very own XXL16, with a very special guest, none other than Gary Holt!Holty looked like he was having a good time, especially when we started singing he''s here, he''s there, he''s every f***ing where Gary Holt Gary Holt. He was quite happy to sign photo''s and have his picture taken with anyone who asked him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted October 25, 2006 Nice cheerful story on a frustrating night, Meeky. Is there any significance to his being there other than to watch the game? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,902 Posted October 25, 2006 It was great to see Gary Holt in the bar last night, he had time for everyone who talked to him. In my eyes he is ''a legend''! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dame to Blame 108 Posted October 25, 2006 I never saw him Meeky i was sitting right behind the goal about 3/4 up where was Holty?. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meeky 0 Posted October 25, 2006 To the right of the goal as we looked, and about 2/3rds of the way up. Holty was there as him and XXL have become friends over the years, no other reason than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted October 25, 2006 Or as the press might say:HOLT IN TALKS WITH CHINESE OVER FOOTBALL! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
YankeeCanary 0 Posted October 25, 2006 Time for a rumour methinks.China are rumoured to have developed a strategy five years ago to win the World Cup in 2014, with China being positioned in the top three of world football rankings for both men and women.Stage OneOne of the methods employed by China was to send out scouting emissaries ( a Chinese name for recruiters ) to develop special relationships with soccer players, managers and coaches in all leading football nations to develop knowledge and recruit resources. These recruiters ( 2 million of them in total ) are highly intelligent, well-paid, highly valued employees within China. Each and every one of them both speak and write many languages fluently. Despite this they were encouraged to downplay their fluency and use terms like " Huckerby invited me to ride on his car. Oh My!" It was felt that this would be regarded as cute and soften the locals to increase the access. Stage Two????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canary02 0 Posted October 25, 2006 I think he''s got something there...XXL is already disappearing back to Hong Kong with half the Club Shop in his backpack so they''re obviously funding a merchandise fact-finding mission too."Anything to declare Mr Lee?""Pages 4 to 34 of the Canary Catalogue""Anything else?""Yeah, Peter Grant made me bring back Paul McVeigh in my holdall too. He says he won''t be needing him anymore". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
