I Pushed Neil Young...and George Heslop

Postby john68 » Mon Feb 07, 2011 4:32 pm

Following the "I pushed"....Edin Dzeko and Carlos Tevez threads, I have to confess......

It was 1965...In the John Lewis store in Bristol. I was carrying a very large and unwieldly city flag and waiting for a lift to arrive. The doors opened and I dropped the flag. As I picked it up, I moved forward bumping into two blokes. I muttered something under my breath at them...got in the lift and turned round to see Neil Young and George Heslop looking at me in all my City stuff and mumbling back. By the time I recovered from the suprise and tried to say sorry, the lift doors had already shut.
GUILTY AS CHARGED.
True story.

I trod on Dennis Tueart's injured toe at a quiz thing years ago. I didn't think it would be fair to push him after that.

Maybe it was the combat jacket with the huge City crest on the back or the double length (about 8ft) City scarf I was wearing that held him back. I din't suppose he could have read the flag as was rolled up on the floor.
Or maybe he just felt sorry for the 15 year old skinny kid who was me.

I vaguely (a lot of things are vague these days) remember some OLDER bloke giving me a shove that day...:-)
I note that your CARER was neglecting his duties on Saturday Doug. Fancy him joining Gillie's Townley poznan whilst his charge was wandering about outside....:-)
Good to see you again Doug.

Hahaha, that was ace! And may I remind you that no Guinness was harmed during the poznaning of that poznan! Total poznania.

With regard to your malicious accusation though John, he'd already left before I'd even got there - I did tell you that, you must have forgotten mate ;)

It's a tough call I'll give you that. I'm happy to accept that you're both from the same, distant, geological era - we could try radiometric dating to get a more accurate figure? Or are you a getting a bit old to think about dating?! (only one terrible pun was damaged in the typing of that post)

This thread just got me thinking of George Heslop with lots of warm memories coming through.

What a committed player and what a no nonsense rough head. What you saw is what you got and he made Andy Morrison look like Maldini.

What a robust centre half.

I once saw Paul Power push over a pile of pennies in the George pub in Stockport town centre.
