OMG my best friend lives in Garston - you are probably her neighbour.

Yes, I'm a very naughty girl going clubbing in Watford. I shall just say 'The New Penny' and you'll know what sort of girl I was. :scared:

In the same way as Peter Beardsley.

Peter Beardsley was a Carlisle player When I saw him play for Carlisle I said to my workmates he will play for England one day and they said yeah, yeah, yeah.

One in UK and one in Aus.
The first two selections in the poll.
So that's why I voted for the 3rd option (along with 3 other people)

yes but the question was who did you first think of the scouser or the aussie?

Never heard of the scouser one but here there are 2 AFL Gary Abletts, Senior and Junior, a bit like on the American Chopper show.

You guys should come down to the Hickey Stand at Kardinia Park and ask the question.

Gary (senior) is (or was) GOD! He kicked 9 goals in the Grand Final against Hawthorn in 1989 and Geelong still lost.

He is very elusive these days after his troubles of the past, but was in the back row of the Hickey Stand a few weeks ago when Nathan Ablett played his first home game (against West Coast) I recall and he played an excellent first quarter, kicking 3 goals. Gary (junior) also played superbly and WC were spanked.

Go Cats!

Ive not heard of the Scouser one either.
Unfortunetly I missed the great Gary Ablett of the Cats in his heyday but his son is a pretty exciting player to watch.
