"Our talking point this morning is George Best, his liver transplant and the booze culture in football. Don't forget, the best caller wins a crate of John Smith's bitter." - Alan Brazil, TalkSport radio host.

Is that a real quote or have you just made it up?

Was talking to my folks about this - very sad. My Mum always says hes "such a nice lad" after she sent him home for his dry cleaning ticket once (hence my nickname).

Hang on, lets get this right. Your  mother ran some sort of dry cleaning business and Paul McGrath was a customer and had forgot his ticket when he came in to collect ?  She had the temerity to make him go all the way home to get it and come all the way back ?

Well, I for one can't think of anything better than a crate of John Smith's bitter to help you quit drinking alcohol.

Ha ha yes. She worked in Johnsons in Lichfield and he was a customer. I will quote my mother directly: "I know you're Paul McGrath but you can't have your dry cleaning without your ticket". Apparently everyone in the shop fell about - including the man himself.

Apologies, I genuinely didn't think anyone could be so crass.

Christ that's painful to listen to. Some friends of mine saw him in Dublin after the match last week and said he was pissed. I really hope Villa fans weren't lining up the drinks for him.

Alan Brazil: "I was sad to hear yesterday about the death of Inspector Morse, TV's John Shaw."
Mike Parry: "John Thaw, Alan."
Alan Brazil: "Do you know, I've been doing that all morning. John, if you're listening, sorry mate."

On the plus side, if he's being an ignorant and insensetive idiot like that at least he's not banging on about how Ipswich should have won the league in 81.
