Sooper-hanz Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Back in the day eh worked with a guy who claimed he'd played 20 minutes for West Ham. He'd come on as a sub, scored 2 goals against Liverpool, been the hero of the day and then did his knee and had to retire. 8 years later he was 20 stone, worked in IT and could barely climb stairs. We kept asking him about the players of that time and he'd reel off all sorts of shite about them. He really believed it all. Even when confronted with a West Ham annual where he didn't even feature he maintained his story.Sounds like he just made a shit load from computers . Madonna..? Fuck aye . I loved her as well . First woman I remember as well that had a proper fanny. She did have some great tracks . Live to Tell another favourite. Link to comment

Clydeside_Sheep Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Is the Lusardi story better? It undoubtedly would be, given it concerns the glorious Linda Lusardi. Link to comment

He'd come on as a sub, scored 2 goals against Liverpool, been the hero of the day and then did his knee and had to retire. My mate worked with one of these army fantasist guys, you know, claiming he was the big war hero and would turn up at work events in full dress uniform, weighed down by medals etc. The guy was a real nut and doubtless a hun. Think he got the jail in the end. The army fantasy is surprisingly common, I remember a bus driver was in the paper in recent years - he would drive about with a parachute regiment tie on, ranting about the IRA etc. Turns out he had no connection with the military at all, and was just a fat hun.

Hewitt a the pies Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Told this story before but a boy I worked with years ago on one of the Brent rigs (Nicknamed Cowboy and complete fantasist) had a good Madonna and Ridgely story. Said he was once married to Linda Lusardi but that's a different tale.Anyway When Madonna was due to be getting married to Guy Ritchie we asked if he was going to the wedding. Not invited as him and Andy had a big fallout with Madonna years earlier as she had stolen the lyrics to one of their songs they wrote together. Andy? Who's Andy.Andrew Ridgely. Turns out Cowboy was the drummer in Wham. Madonna stole the lyrics of "Like a Virgin" from them and they've never spoken since. Complete bollocks but he actually believes it. Madder than mad Jack McMad winner of last year's mad man contest. Some machine. Used to travel on the train home wearing a vicar's collar and tell everyone he was a man of the church. Would give Millerman a run for his money with the stories.Aye good old Cowboy I remember him well. Link to comment
