Crouch always went out and did his job. no complaints, true gentleman.

Light bulb changer?
On Assou-Ekotto's preparation for a game.
"Now none of us are adventurous. It's pasta, chicken, no sauce, and has been for the past 20 years. Benoit would turn up with a Tesco's bag containing the same four items every time: a croissant, a hot chocolate, a full-fat Coke and a packet of crisps."

100th goal.
Chuffed for him.

One of the more surprising success stories in football and a top bloke to boot.
Remember an interview with him before, can't remember who by, but he was asked the question "what would you be if you weren't a footballer?"
Crouchy replied "A virgin!"

I just loved the fact we bought him having binned him off early in his youth career. I still call him a youth product even though I know it's a bit of a stretch, but got a nice piece of football romance about it. In all of his interviews post Spurs he only shows affection for us, never heard him talk about Pool (maybe my ears are closed). I class him as a real Yiddo, and nothing will change my opinion of that.Crouch always went out and did his job. no complaints, true gentleman.

Redknapp apparently walked into the dressing room at half time one game.
"Fucking stinks in here, whos shit on the floor?"
Crouch replies " Sorry boss, that's why I prefer the ball in the air"
Boom boom

Great story in this article:

There’s a memorable story in the book about meeting Mickey Rourke in Miami in 2006, when you went on holiday with friends after the World Cup…
We were out and I was like: “Oh, there’s Mickey Rourke.” And he was like: “Oh, you’re robot boy!” I’ve got a picture somewhere of me and him doing the robot together in Miami. I’ll find it one day. It was great, we had two amazing nights [with him]. But I was on a lads’ holiday – he lived out there, that was his life! So the third one he knocked on our bedroom door and I peeked through [the peephole] and went: “Lads, it’s Mickey Rourke.” And they went: “Ah, fucking bin him. Get rid.” So I pretended I wasn’t in and went back to bed. He slipped a letter under the door and it was like: “Let’s meet here for dinner.” And I literally left it in the hotel room. I didn’t even bring the letter home to show anyone. Nuts. I wish I had it now, obviously.
