Interesting - I'd go for Priestfield obscurities - Streeter, Ifejiagwa, Davis, Woolsey.

[Albion] Which Albion players have you seen out doing their shopping and what was in their basket?

The whole Priestfield era is a bit of a black hole for me - its 120 miles from here, so inevitably I drifted away for a bit. I'd be more likely to come up with Franco Massimo, David Gipp or Darren Palmer

Think I just saw Megan Connolly in Burgess Hill Tesco today as wearing Albion training type kit with number 27. Didn't check her basket though!
I see Franco Massimo quite a bit at regional Athletics meetings. Our boys compete. He is a smashing bloke.
Good.
Next time you see him, tell him a random bloke on the internet was a big fan, as a 13 year old, three and a half decades ago, and retains fond memories of watching him, Gippy and Ian Muir, charge about the Goldstone on Tuesday nights, in front of a thousand fans.

Dave Beasant, Blackbushe car auctions maybe 10 years ago. He was miffed to be recognised but chatty about BHAFC. I note he is now a goalkeeper coach at Reading F.C.
Don't recall what he was bidding on however.

There wouldn't have been any such waiting around if Kayal's wife had asked him to buy her makeup on her behalf. As we've already established whether buying cuts of beef or garden hoses Kayal doesn't dither around when doing his shopping. He would have just marched straight up to the makeup counter and just grabbed the first stick of lipstick he saw, plonked the money on the counter and walked straight out again. The whole transaction would have taken less than thirty seconds and hard luck on his wife if the lippy didn't match her skin tone.
And similar to you forgiving Ryan his formal black shoe / blue jean fashion faux pas I was similarly forgiving as soon as I noticed it was Kayal who was doing the hitched up to the calf track suit leg thing.
I reckon Kayal's also the kind of guy that does the slightly too short suit trousers/no socks/loafer look. Totally unacceptable if anyone else does it of course but done by an Albion player and they are totally beyond reproach.

Going back a few years I saw Bobby Zamora in Boots. He wasn't carrying a basket but was hovering around the men's shaving products and not doing a very good job at hiding his obvious enjoyment at people staring and whispering.

You'd probably have the same natural compulsion if stood next to him at a urinal. I know I would but we'll leave that for another thread.

Not Albion but I once got knocked into by Peter Beardsley's wife at Kings Cross, spilling my can of coke everywhere over me and my bag. Can't listen to Athletico Mince without thinking of Peter's voice while he apologised to me on her behalf. He was in full Fulham tracksuit and she was dressed for a night out which somehow seems fitting too.
When I first met him down at Hastings or Tonbridge I recognised his surname and told him the Albion once had a player with the surname of Massimo and was he related ? He said, “Hey that was me do you really remember”...... I then said, “ of course but you have changed... you’ve filled out “ (how we laughed)

Zamora purchasing continental strength lager in the Zap
Lualua illegally parking at Hickstead Burger King a few times and running over the motorway bridge to the team bus outside the Castle Inn who I assume he has previous with as they have ample parking. Considered alerting Burger King a few times however just accepted he’s a young man trying to make a living

We met some Gillingham ladies down for the weekend in the event many years back, turns out they were part of the group that used to throw stones at the buses we used to get from Mid Sussex back, oh how we laughed

Just seen Kate Humble in Waitrose (Monmouth). Veg, cucumber, sausages, bacon and lots of toilet rolls. I know she didn't play for the Albion, but as I made a special effort to check what she was buying I thought I'd report back.
