A
recent Twitter trending topic was #notintheenglandsquad , a list that
presumably started out as a serious European football tournament
discussion regarding players who hadn't made the grade, and why. It
wasn't long before idiots like me came along and gave other
self-explanatory suggestions for people who probably wouldn't be
representing our country on the football pitch, including Abu Hamza,
Heather Mills and Whoopi Goldberg. Okay, some of them weren't mine.
Then I came out with this gem:
“Norman D Golden II, the kid from 'Cop and a Half'. Y'know. With Burt Reynolds. He's not in it either.”
“Norman D Golden II, the kid from 'Cop and a Half'. Y'know. With Burt Reynolds. He's not in it either.”
The
next morning, Norman himself-
now 28 and performing as a rapper going by the stage name Enormous-
had found my tweet and replied! As it happens, he says, he does play
soccer. But not at World Cup level. He and his boys, I can confirm,
do enjoy a good kick-around. I can also confirm Norman as being a
big-time Chelsea fan.
As
a reminder, here's Norman's Magnum Opus:
What
a guy!
