Gerrard story

Cunny · October 2, 2006

A colleague of my wifes won a Radio City competition to go to some charity bash that Gerrard, Dalglish and other scouse glitteratti were at. This lad has missed one game home and away in ten years. This was Eindhoven away this season.

He took a mate who got talking to Gerrard. Gerrard asked him if he went to the match, the lad said he went when he could but his mate had this amazing record of only missing one game in years.

So, my wife's colleague is talking away to someone and suddenly he gets a tap on his shoulder and it's Gerrard, he goes 'We really missed you in Eindhoven!". The lad couldn't believe it. Gerrard thanked him for his loyal support, he was at pains to say this was not lip service. He said it was for guys like him he played, who travelled all round the country and Europe. He said sometimes when maybe he's not feeling 100%, it's the amazing support they get away from home that really inspires him.

Reflects well on our captain and a decent story amid all the doom and gloom.
