"I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I squandered."
"I used to go missing a lot . . . Miss Canada, Miss United kingdom, Miss World."
"I was in for ten hours and had 40 pints – beating my previous record by 20 minutes." (On his blood transfusion for his liver transplant)
"In 1969 I gave up women and alcohol and it was the worst 20 minutes of my life."
"Even at the height of my fame, 50 per cent of the people who saw me wanted a fight — it’s the downside of being a star player."
"I’d have to be superman to do some of the things I’m supposed to have done, I’ve been at six different places at six different times."
"I was probably the first footballer ever to have a pop star profile and my agent was right when he said we could put my name on stair rods and sell them to people in bungalows." |
