I'm going to do things when they are right for me.
men hands-up want
If the fans want me out, I'll put my hands up and leave. Like a proper man. I won't make excuses, I'll leave.
monday good-day sunday
But if I wasn't playing, I would drink Saturdays, then Sunday, then Monday. Then I would try and train and it was no good, then have another drink just to pass the day away.
learning wonder drink
I never refused an autograph, never refused to buy someone a drink. Now I'm learning to say I've got other things on, instead of doing it and wondering why.
laughing guy done
I don't really do pranks any more. I have a laugh in the dressing room here, where it's safe, and the guys don't go to the papers and tell them what I've done.
teaching boys unborn
A boy is better unborn than untaught.
football funny-football predictions
I never make predictions and I never will.
wine games glasses
I'll tell you the truth; I had a double brandy before the game but, before, it used to be four bottles of whisky. Not any more. I was fine. I had a glass of wine after the game. But it was just a mouthful.
cabinets trophies alex
I know I would have had a lot more trophies in my cabinet if I went with him [Sir Alex Ferguson].
thinking trying disease
I had to accept that I was an alcoholic, that was the main thing. I think you've got to. But I try not say that I'm an alcoholic. I prefer to say that it's a disease I've got.
football years play
I've learnt and I just want to be respected for what I've achieved on the pitch. I know I haven't achieved much off it but I do know I've given pleasure to people watching me play football over the years.
men two wages
What is the world coming to when you get a red card and get fined two weeks' wages for calling a grown man a wanker?
No one is ever going to be as good as I was
soccer eight faults
I've had 14 bookings this season-eight of which were my fault, but seven of which were disputable.
