Oh wow...Gazza haha.. what a legend! A sad story too. I had to google Jimmy ... It's crazy who you can bump into, hey?... Nice one, Ed. Your niece must have been so excited. I hope she has managed to keep hold of the poem - that's a lovely treasure right there!
I met David Seaman in a cafe in Carnaby Street once. My Mom took a pic of us together... he made me remove a David Beckham Manchester United cap first 😂 needless to say my mom focussed perfectly on the couple across the street from us lol but the pic is still ok... he was so nice. A real gentleman.
My best memory of meeting a footballer though...if you can call a piercing stare, and a nod as meeting lol... but he did sign his autobiography for me and a photo of himself that I handed to him... the one and only Eric Cantona ... I was thrilled. I actually went down to watch him play in the European beach soccer league in Brighton in the hope of meeting him and getting him to sign the autobiography. So I was made up!
I'll see if I can dig out the pics on the weekend... not sure which hard drive they are on ROFL.

The whole Gazza thing was so sad, but what a player he was.
