I met Stuart Pearce in a Pub in Stapleford about 20 years ago.... We had a chat about our mutual love of the Stranglers, then I was at Rock City watching them in Notts and he came up to me and remembered our conversation... Absolutely top bloke, he is perfect in this video. Brilliant. x

I'm about a mile away from Stapleford. Spent many a formative evening in the pubs on Derby Rd in the early 90's. H+J was always a good pub. Pavillion wasn't too bad for the "New' Pub and the Chequers was handy if you were waiting for a bus to go into Nottingham (if you were really lucky and they knew you, you could get them to serve you out of the window at the bus stop) memorable night in Stabbo when England lost to Germany in 1990.....didn't stop long as it all kicked off after the final whistle.
