I had the pleasure of meeting him and two other blokes in ‘06 ?

Met them at Ben Avery for a match they were doing.

What I remember most was : “ you’re shorter in person” & “ American mustard is shit “

The first statement I replied “ Scottish lineage bastards”
The second “ well you fucks don’t no shit about mustard “

Will be missed. But thank you buddy for the memory’s.
