Keith Cooper is brilliant he will always take banter

Keith Cooper is a legend!! I've been lucky enough to know him for years. I went right through comp with his son Steven and my dad was a ref with him, not to his standard though!! He's always been nice and used to take kids from our school to meet players of different teams when he was reffing in the prem! Glad he's with city now.

I take it you was at Treforest?

Iv seen Chopper Harris a few years back in Llantwit Fardre. Was real funny to be fair, had some wicked stories. Think Llantwit had Razor there this year. Can imagine him being pretty funny.

Anybody else go to the 'George Best night' in Rhydcar about 16 years ago? He didn't turn up, no surprise really

I have seen Paul Merson, Neil Ruddock, Norman Whiteside on the circuit

Seen Paul Merson in the summer and he was funny as f**k.

Any stories involving Cloughie are class.

Quite a few ex Derby / Forest players making off the after dinner circuit thanks to Cloughie stories.

Legend is thrown about too easy these days but Clough is a true legend.
