Obviously not a pop star but a true tale about my greengrocers shop. A few weeks after signing for Crystal Palace for a then record fee goalkeeper Nigel Martin came into my self service greengrocers and was buying potatos.The potato show used to consist of about 500lbs of spuds in a large pile.NM was selecting the ones he fancied,which were mainly at the bottom of a large wall of potatos that acted as a dam to hold the bulk in place.Gravity took over and the inevitable avalanche followed which he pluckily but unsuccessfully tried to stem.He failed to catch a single potato.An employee ( who was also a West Ham season ticket holder) called to him "are you sure you are worth a million ££s ?". Not surprisingly he never came back.
