    So flying to Brazil I was talking to a lad in security check that said Gorgeous George had a cafe in Offenbach Germany, not too far from me. Said come and have a coffee and meet him one day

    Was wearing my double winning treble invincible Hoops, was quite the hit in security

    Fair play to the big unplayable lazy *. Though he is a big pretentious * according to my wee sister who had various exchanges with him whilst working in his favourite restaurant here.

    Georgios Samaras was my all time favourite, so sad to see his career crashing down so dramatically after leaving us. Although I never considered him to be a masterful striker, he was on his best days a wonderful winger via his abilities in speed, agility, dribbling and protecting the ball. He was someone who truly could bring forward the attacks and sometimes score. Some great memories in the CL 2012-2013 ... In addition he seems to have been a well liked person and a social asset in the team. In my eyes, a fantastic individual player.

    My favourite self-seen memory was in Helsinki 2012. In the second period he was tackled down right before where I was sitting on the second row.. Sammy stood up, grinned widely and winked an eye for me, seeing me sitting there with my Celtic jersey in the middle of HJK-and impartial fans. ^^ Later on he scored that evening...

    I can’t remember the name of it but there was a Greek restaurant in the town that I went to 3 times in my life and Sammy was there they 3 times.

    And would absolutely sink a bottle or two of red wine with seemingly zero effect on him. I watched him sink 2 in an hour, asked him for a picture when I was leaving same time and he was sober as *. Small mindedly so impressed with that at 18. Tank.
