......“I was unable to play through injury and I was sat by the pool with a couple of the club’s directors.
“McClelland came by seeking to make himself popular. He was just wearing swimming trunks. Some people egged me on to throw him into the water but they didn’t think I’d actually do it.
“But I got up, ran at the chairman and threw him into the pool. The water came up to his hip but the guy couldn’t swim and got into a panic. He started floundering and swallowing water, so I jumped in after him and dragged him to the side.
“He was furious. His watch must have cost £20,000 and there were just six examples of it in the entire world. My first question was: ‘How come it’s not watertight?’ He didn’t find it funny. He’d had a phone and a credit card in his trunks as well."
WTF

Pretty saddening to see what he had to say about the number of players drinking heavily. Would like to think things have moved on, doubt it though.

Decent player but all too often far too big a liability in the big games
