Used to love old sweaty, bumped into him in Tescos, was star struck and couldn't say a word, good luck to the fella hope it works out, 'propa Charlton'.
Good luck to him. He got me tickets to sit amongst the 7000ish Wigan fans that beat the scum in the autoscreen or whatever it was called then, at wembley. #wigansoftspot
Should send him an invite for the Back to the Valley dinner. Always been a bit puzzled that he never seems to turn up at any reunions, supporters' club nights, etc. Remember reading an interview with Mike Salmon, who roomed with Sweaty, in Valiants Viewpoint - got the impression he'd be good entertainment.
I saw him play at Boston United a few years back. My three children and five nephews were all singing "ooh Sweaty Balmer", I don't know if he heard us but we got some strange looks from the locals.
I was intrigued as to what he looks like these days, so had a peek on their website. Just a sillouette. So, they either don't have a photographer there, or he's a former SAS soldier............
