Years ago I was at Wolverhampton to see the Cobblers (Phil Chard scored an absolute belter that day I seem to recall) and found myself sitting next to Robert Plant. I was absolutely gob smacked as he was a real hero of mine. I think I was a bit 'star struck' but I did get to manage to talk to him through out the game. What a fabulous guy he was.
Been a long time since he rock n rolled.

I haven't seen anyone famous other than Jeema and Mad Michelle because I only attend Cobblers games. Oh, and DC and the Capt. There's still a slim chance of them becoming infamous. Does it count if you see someone before they come to prominence?

I had the joy of sitting next to Michelle at Oxford away, all I heard from her literally all game was, and I quote “Fûck off you Cûnts”.

I saw Henning Wehn coming out of Adams Park after a match at Wycombe, I found out afterwards that he used to work for Wycombe.

Did the stewards 'politely' ask you to leave the pitch?

Probably the same starting 11 as the Colchester game with Nelson replacing Horsfall. However, who will take Nelson's place on the bench as Harriman, Sowerby and Flores apparently are not yet ready and the youngsters are out on loan?.

I've had a very similar experience!

Do you remember when she wasn't entirely sure who she followed so did Northampton and the Direones. You'd often see her in a Cobblers top and a Direones scarf at the same time, as well as the regulation shellsuit.

Remember when we played Leicester in the league, pretty hostile atmosphere all day and that pr1ck from Kasabian made the mistake of sitting in the West Stand.

I think someone should just take this city of Peterborough and just... just flush it down the f***in' toilet

Ah yes. The bloke behind me gobbed at him as he was being lead out, whilst exposing his blue shirt, he was chased up the hill by NN5, and it all kicked off outside the Walter Tull after the game. Grand day out.

Once sat behind her at a game (Lincoln or Bristol Rovers, one or the other) and she lost her shìt when we conceded before kicking the seat in front of her to pieces!!

I think I've lead a sheltered life compared to many on here. Either that or I sit in the nicer parts of the stadiums

About 10-15 years ago I was sat directly behind her at Gillingham, for a Tuesday night game. Every time the Gillingham striker got the ball (who was a black guy), she muttered very quietly 'fcuk off you p@ki bast@rd'. Real life Little Britain-esq comedy at its best!

About late 50's ended up in the same car as Subba Row, my father was a keen Cricketer. As for the lovely Mad Michelle can record many of her antics notably at Port Vale when that Nutter danced in front of the away end after their equaliser. Then again at Bury when a few of their fans tried to pay us a 'visit'; she went ballistic, exhibiting full repertoire of hand signals. Perhaps her finest moment was at Cheltenham when the stewards moved her at some distance from two middle aged ladies who had complained about her language/semaphores! At Wimbledon sat next to Mahoney's girl friend; she was very pretty and Portuguese. My finest moment was standing amongst Millwall fans at the Old Den. We won pretty handsomely 1-4. Not a squeak from me!

All these celebrities...and Mad Michelle! Ironically, Rochdale for its size, must be the most celebrity giving town in the World; Gracie Fields, Lisa Stansfield, Cyril Smith, Mike Harding (the Rochdale Cowboy) Liz & Andy Kershaw (Radio One DJs) The Co-op...and of course, the favourite Town Hall of Adolf Hitler (guy from Austria but moved to Germany).
Oh hail the Dale!

Not so sure that Cyril Smith counts as a celebrity. More like a peadophile. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyril_Smith
