Wayne Bridge

Quoted after the cup final:

 

'I don't care what happened during the game - we got three points and that's all that counts.'

 

Anyone care to hazard a guess as to why he's known as Trigger in the dressing room?

[Stevie H]

he's legendarily thick. apparently once at southampton he had to ask james beattie round because he couldn't get his pro evolution soccer working on his playstation. turned out the cd was still in the f***ing box. thick as pigsh*t.

[Coyler]

 

I love those ?thick footballer? stories. Who was the one was waking up with his face wet and cold every morning ? ?

 

[Stevie H]

Our great team of the mid 90's were out on the lash once and a couple of players stayed in McAteers house. They got up the next morning to go to Melwood when McAteer realised he locked his keys in the Porsche. Ruddock told him to go up to his room to get a hanger and he few minutes later he comes back with a wooden one

[meepins]

all great but in fairness to McAteer if they were out drinking .....

The best McAteer one must be the pizza one...

 

".. cut it into 4, I couldn't eat 8.."

 

or word to that affect

yeah the waitress asked him if he wanted his pizza cut into 4 pieces or 8. He said 4 as he wasn't that hungry and couldn't eat 8.

 

Another good one is on a European away. They were filling forms in and the form asked for Employer and position at company. Jason put Liverpool down, but asked someone 'what should i put for position, i am a midfielder really, but i'm playing at right back at the moment'

Is it true McAteer once bumped into Jimmy White somewhere and shouted "ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY!!"

Thought this review of Wayne Bridge's part in the melee at the end of the game was quite amusing:

 

* Wayne Bridge and Emmanuel Eboué

 

Bridge is standing on the fringe of the action when Eboué wanders over holding the ball. Bridge pulls the ball out of his hand. Eboué reacts by taking a step back, then kicking Bridge in the shin at the same time as striking him on the back of his head with his forearm.

 

Bridge's immediate response is to draw his elbow back as if to jab Eboué in the ribs. Then he looks to his right, where an official is standing, stops, raises himself erect, clutches the crown of his head, opens his mouth as if screaming with pain, and falls dramatically to the ground.

 

Eboué, meanwhile, has decided to give Bridge another shove but, with Bridge already falling, Eboué loses his balance and tumbles on top of him. When Eboué gets up Bridge rolls around in apparent agony and receives lengthy treatment.

 

 

Independent today

 

Didn't McAteer ask whether they wanted red or brown when one of the players asked him to pass the ketchup?
