Cole's hand was out & Sheringham completely ignored him, which was out of order IMOYip.
Cole said he felt humiliated. Ruined his big night etc.

Didn’t know that feud had went that far.Andy Goram and Nigel Spackman.
Andy decked Spackman at half time during a game v Aberdeen. I’m sure the story was that Walter was not averse to Spackman getting a slap.
That was just vulgar.Was there not a story about Erik Bo Andersen requesting a transfer due to Gazza winding him up?
Apparently Gazza pissed in Bo Andersen’s bath…..
Apparently Hughes had a deal with Adidas as Liverpool captain to be given a load of football gear where it was expected that it would be shared amongst the first team squad. Hughes put all the gear into his sports shop in Sheffield according to Smith with the intention of selling it on for profit for Hughes. There are other accusations from Smith about Hughes in his book 'Anfield Iron'. I'll dig the book out and let you know the rest. Iirc one of the accusations was about Hughes trying to bribe another team to throw a game, maybe Wolves in 1972. I'll confirm this for you later onWhat's the story about this?
Simeone and Veron at Lazio. Veron then went back and played for him at Estudiantes though.
The reason being Keane is a walloper and a bully and the goalie wasn’t slow in telling him.Goram and Roy Keane at Man Utd for obvious reasons.
They seem to play well together and I am sure that one of the reasons that Connor enjoys being at the club is through his friendship with Tav.They are tight. I read and interview were they said they have been good friends since tav went to shrewsbury on loan.
Or coming for crosses.McGregor just doesn’t like left backs
From the Magnificent B@stard's lips. Thompson hated that he replaced him as captain and also that his first wife's family were loaded.Phil Thompson and Graeme Souness. Don't think they're on speaking terms to this day?
The cheek of the ned, Ferguson is a condomWatching Open Goal with Derek Ferguson and Ian Durrant is quite funny, especially when they talk about Trevor Francis. They just thought he was a pretentious wank and they noised him right up.
Ferguson wasn’t too complimentary towards Gough either saying “he’s just borin man. He’s a fuckin briefcase”.
I met Walter smith in Majorca not long after mark Hateley signed and asked about Ally. Walter said as long as he was at Ibrox so would ally beMore manager not on getting with player but there again it could be have been a tactical decision but Souness v McCoist relationship deserves a mention or at least being discussed.
McCoist was nick named 'The Judge' because he sat on the bench for so long with Souness in charge after Mo Johnson signed post 1989. Although Souness might have thought Hateley and Mo Johnson the better pairing.
Then there was the incident where McCoist went to the races the day before a game I think, and Souness made him make a public apology on TV rather than a private dressing down and fine.
McCoist and Durrant bought joke soap and Souness used it the shower and was left with stains on his body that he couldn't get off for days. I don't think Souness would have found that funny! If ever there was someone who didn't suffer 'fools' gladly it would be Souness (not that McCoist and Durrant are fools by the way).
Maybe Souness was jealous of McCoist's popularity, personality and character or he benched Ally just as a tactical decision. Might be wrong here but when Walter took charge in 1991 McCoist seemed permanently restored.
I heard that. Wouldn't buy a drink, wouldn't get involved in the card schools and just a weirdo in general.
It wouldn't surprise me.He was a grass to the manager allegedly.
Came from a couple of players at Blackburn with him
No doubt. All good players but lack of dedication would appear to be a pet hate of Keane’s. His comments about Mark Bosnich are another example. Possibly why he hasn’t been able to make it happen as a manager - people don’t come up to his standards.If you were a good player and dedicated trainer you wouldn't have any problem with Roy Keane.
I remember Gazza saying in a documentary “Brian was great. If I was knackered in a game I’d say to Brian I’m shattered dos a favour and take the ball for a run for a bit”.I actually think they thought highly of one another. I always remember after we beat Hearts 5-1 in the cup final, Gazza described Laudrup as the "most unselfish footballer" he had ever played with.
Rangers fans are not called Tosh.I can remember someone on here years ago who was deadly serious when he said McKinlay was a Rangers supporter
Effenberg just looks like a cünt. Lad I used to work with Ross, used to play for Aberdeen. In a pre-seasom friendly he marked/played/kicked Effenberg off the park so much that he point blank refused to shake his hand at thee end (may even have demanded to be subbed as well but memory might be playing tricks on me there).Barton and Dabo.
Shearer and Owen
Pretty sure Steffan Effenberg was hated by most of his team mates. Part of the reason he retired from the German national team quite young.
Including his chips and his dreams.Judging by the thread Gazza pissed on EBA and anything he touched.
The funny thing is , i dont think Ferguson was that great, pretty slow and didnt score much.Derek had all the ability in the world and a very good football brain.
The rest of the brain was missing.
I don’t think this is true. I happened to spend a bit of time with one of their team mates last night and the story he told was that they were friends and that they didn’t have much time for Gattuso and Amoruso, something to do with a north/south divide in Italy. Negri’s Mrs refused, point blank, to have anything to do with LA & RG.Watching an Andy Cole documentary just now where he's talking about how him and Teddy Sheringham didn't exchange a word while they were at Man United together in the late '90s. When they did chat, Dwight Yorke was the mediator between them, passing on what the other said.
I know Porrini/Negri is the obvious one, but any others? I think it's safe to say Davie Weir thought Kyle Lafferty was a complete weapon.
Was at a Sportsmans dinner many years ago where Smith was one of the speakersEmlyn Hughes and Tommy Smith at Liverpool.
If Derek Ferguson was as committed as Gough, no one would remember Souness.Watching Open Goal with Derek Ferguson and Ian Durrant is quite funny, especially when they talk about Trevor Francis. They just thought he was a pretentious wank and they noised him right up.
Ferguson wasn’t too complimentary towards Gough either saying “he’s just borin man. He’s a fuckin briefcase”.
He was lying on the ground doing stretches at training and Gazza pished on him. I remember him being interviewed about it.That’s the story I heard (during stretches) but in true FF fashion we have people claiming he was pissed on, had his clothes pissed on and had his bath pissed in
Didn't know that what was behind it ?Albertz and amoroso hated each other
Quite a few dont get on with GreigCooper didn’t get along with John Greig either,especially when greig became manager.
Said the man with the orthopaedic shoeAh right, didn't know that. I stand corrected.
That’s brilliant. I really liked Veron in the Simeone documentary. Didn’t see a lot of him but I thought he came over as an impressive guy.Estudiantes is Veron's club. When playing in Europe he used to send money back to help pay the bills, youth development etc....
sadly true. Pathetic from gascoigneStory is Gazza pissed on his clothes. Great player but at times a total lady's front bottom of a person.
That’s the difference, isn’t it.sadly true. Pathetic from gascoigne
i bet he didn’t piss on John Brown or Ian Ferguson’s clothes.
Just proves what a melt DF is.Watching Open Goal with Derek Ferguson and Ian Durrant is quite funny, especially when they talk about Trevor Francis. They just thought he was a pretentious wank and they noised him right up.

Absolutely. There's "pranks" and then there's asking to get your kunt kicked in. Absolutely incredible on the park but %^*& knowing him off it. Unfortunately because he was rich and brilliant on the park, people just blew smoke up his arse instead of straightening him out - hence he is where he is today.Story is Gazza pissed on his clothes. Great player but at times a total lady's front bottom of a person.
Surprised the hunchback troll could stretch to Jar Jar Binks' noseTosh McKinlay broke Henrik Larsson's nose with a headbutt in training.
Sure I’ve heard Chick Young say he was doing post match interviews at Ibrox and Amoruso came running out with Albertz chasing after him.Didn't know that what was behind it ?
A wonderful prospect with us, on arrival at Sunderland he allegedly drove his car the wrong way round a roundabout, injuring 3 team-mates.Fergie is probably a decent guy to share a pint with, and maybe Big Ricard is a bit more serious.
I always resented Derek Ferguson throwing away his Rangers career, he had so much ability and really should have been a legend.
Must have some cock on him because according to others on here he was in the dressing room or any other made up location.He was lying on the ground doing stretches at training and Gazza pished on him. I remember him being interviewed about it.
Married into a Rangers family but definitely not one of usI can remember someone on here years ago who was deadly serious when he said McKinlay was a Rangers supporter
I can’t think of anyone who wouldn’t absolutey shite themselves at the prospect of fighting John Brown.Been told a few stories about Craig Moore that made him unpopular with fans and players alike. One involved Bomber threatening to leather him at a supporters function for wankish behaviour to the committee members.
I actually asked Bomber when I met him about it and he just winked and grinned at me.
Yea,read that as wellI remember HD saying he'd an altercation with JB - in the dressing room at half time - JB had chewed out HD on the pitch for some reason
When they got back in the dressing room Davis had grabbed him by the throat & picked him up by one hand & lifted him off the ground to tell him - 'don't you ever speak to me like that again'
Scot Symon ran up & shouted -'Harold - Harold - put Jim down'
All sounds funny now
But I certainly wouldn't like to have crossed Davis -
Might need to remind him of that next OF game even if he is on the benchCalum Butcher got transfered by Dundee United in the summer after he shagged Benji Siegrists wife.
Equally, sociopaths make poor team-mates/managers.No doubt. All good players but lack of dedication would appear to be a pet hate of Keane’s. His comments about Mark Bosnich are another example. Possibly why he hasn’t been able to make it happen as a manager - people don’t come up to his standards.
