Sith Happens Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I often see Gerard Houllier in Le Bistro Pierre in Derby. If its not him its Inspector Clouseau. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mucker1884 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I know that Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly "Have you heard of the North Bank, Highbury?" Shanks said "No. I don't think so... but I've heard of the Popside, Derby" True Story 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was invited by the club too attend matches when Liverpool stopped him attending training sessions as it was decided he was becoming a distraction. Why Derby decided to do this I couldn't tell you. He became something of a fan it seems and quite a regular follower of Derbys fortunes. Are you sure you’re not getting muddled up with Shankley?

(i was trying to extract this to create a new thread but it wouldn’t let me quote @DCFC Ram ) i once saw mr and mrs Roy McFarland walk into Laura Ashley’s in Homebase she seemed to be wearing the trousers and was possibly in a bit of a mood.

But it appears neither could get enough either way. I did see Archie Gemmill walking a dog in markeaton park and Paul Williams come out of the Travellers rest dressed as al capone carrying a tommy gun one Christmas.

Mucker1884 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 I was well into my 40's before Big Sis happened to mention... rather nonchalantly I may add... that she just so happened to have dated a certain Mr A Gemmill, "Some time during the early 70's". So Sis, you didn't think to mention this at the time then, when this particular impressionable young Rams fan could have bragged to all his mates that sis was dating one of the top players at one of the top clubs in the land!... even if it was just the one date!

Ramos Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 His granddaughter lives in mickleover near where I grew up I was told and as others have mentioned. How true it is I don’t know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC Ram Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Isn't it just. Did I mention that, one day I was in a certain DIY type shop in Derby and this bloke walked in with a nearly new patio set. He headed towards the returns counter... and the rest, as they say, is history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC Ram Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Archie Gemmill was tiny - but looked as fit as a butcher's dog - and spoke in a strong Scottish accent. Bob Paisley's daughter lived in Mickleover. She was married to Ian McMahon who did indeed coach Derby Boys for many years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC Ram Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 And then there was the time when I was walking past a gents toilet and heard some slurred singing 'Teale, Teale will tear you apart'. Then again, it could have been ' He used to be sh!te and now he's alright' enough for now I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I may well have the timing wrong, so apologies for that. It certainly happened, albeit only the one date, I believe. Having said that, she did go on to date and eventually marry a guy that was already married (when they met) so who knows! Being a Derby family, (and not Nottingham) she is not the sort of sister to go pulling my wotsit! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
