Famous R's Fans at Wembley 10:51 - May 26 with 7626 viewsM40R

Any stories about spotting famous fellow R's at Wembley?

I'll start with Ashley Giles, the King of Spain, who was happily quaffing the rubbish lager on level 5 before the match. (See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashley_Giles if you are not a cricket fan).

I wonder how Zamora's goal matches the feeling of hitting the winning runs against the Aussies that gave us the decisive lead in the 2005 Ashes?

The amusing sight of a fan queuing up for a beer wearing a shirt with "Gallen 10" on the back with the real thing standing with mates 2 yards away.

Spent about 5 minutes walking up Wembley Way with Lee Cook. Went up to him and thanked him for his £250k donation when he left all those years back and then we got chatting about the Rs. Came across as a top bloke.

M40R, with me not being a big cricket fan, I was wondering what the King of Spain had to do with it. The penny has just dropped, I think you mean't spin. LOL

The legend is that he ordered a batch of mugs with "Ashley Giles - King of Spin" on them to sell for his Benefit Year, and they came back as King of Spain. Hence the Spanish flags with the Barmy Army.

Did you play in midfield and go off when your shorts felt too tight?

'Packing the midfield' takes on a new meaning when you're getting on, doesn't it ....

Peter Crouch was there with mates, in one of the Boxes. Then seen later at the The Haven Arms in Ealing joining in with the singing with all the other R's packed into the pub. Really enjoying himself. Good bloke.

Only realised when looking back through my photos after the game that Kevin Gallen had been just behind me all the way up Wembley Way and I didn't even realise!

I was sitting in block 122 and at half time did wonder why there was a big group of indians maybe 25+) sitting close to me(basically how did so many get tickets together). Then at the end before leaving notice Amit Bhatia in the middle of them. He was smiling ear to ear should of been on the pitch really. Phone was dead so didnt even manage a picture with him :(
