Eric Bristow in Trim

scudzilla

Couldn't find a general chat thread here, just walked past The Trim Castle Hotel and seen this guy having a smoke, looked familiar, i stopped, turned round and said "Eric"

Was him alright, pretty surreal, and by the looks of him he's had a few fizzy drinks, over here for a friends wedding

Richie Burnett was playing in The Judge and Jury last night.
Wonder if Eric stopped in for a game?

He was?? Damn, didn't know anything about that or i'd have popped in.

Funny story about Richie Burnett, was working the front door of The Tivoli in Buckley about 10yrs ago, 4 guys came up at around midnight, recognised 1 as Richie, he was a bit hammered but because it was him i let him in, mates said they'd take care of him.

Ended up binning him 30mins later, puking all over the dance floor :pac::pac:

Maybe a good job you didn't go in and he recognized you for throwing him out!
There is exhibitions there regularly enough with a lot of the top guys.

You should have went inside Scud, looks like you could have met or reacquainted yourself with some other players

Wonder who was getting married then, must have been someone on the circuit, past or present

I think I read on here than Bristow was at the O2 a year or two back hanging around posing for photos for 20 quid a pop. He went down in my estimation after that.

It was Alan apparently Few pics came up on Brendan Dolan's facebook, I didn't recognise the groom but one of the pics said "Congratulations to Alan &...." Other pics had few more players(Merv King, Warriner Little)

He is doing that for years, he usually has the Embassy trophy with him. I think Deller does the same.

Maybe it's me but it seems fairly sad to be doing that for a couple of quid.
