Going with missus to Elton John concert this evening at Grace Road- does anyone remember seeing him at Spotland in Directors box in the ? 1970's home to Watford. Bleak Winter's Tuesday evening, certainly stood out amongst the crowd (him, not me).

I remember seeing Steven Gerrard paying in at a match circa 2002 v Shrewsbury. He was there in support of his best mate, the Shrewsbury goalie whose name completely escapes me.
Also, some singing woman used to turn up in support of Conrad Logan. Again the name escapes me. |  |

Kimberley Walsh of Girls Aloud was at Dale as she was getting knobbed off Martin Pemberton who was on loan from Stockport.
The singing woman with Conrad Logan was Sam Bailey, winner of the X Factor.
Keith Allen was at Charlton away in the FA Cup years back as well! |  |

Ian Dunbavin and Tina Turner. |
I thought it was Debbie Gibson.
Anyway, the answers to this thread lie in Roccy's Twitter feed.
More importantly, do these celebrities still need to be playing? |  |
| When I was your age, I used to enjoy the odd game of tennis. Or was it golf? |

The night you're talking about was the very day that the Press published the news that Elton was gay.
I spoke to him in the tunnel efore the kick off and offered to swap coats, so that he could look less conspicuous. He declined the offer, which was a relief because pink has never been my favourite colour !!
Last couple of seasons have seen David Blunkett, Roy Hattersley gracing the Directors Box, Lisa Stansfield, a variety of 'soap' stars. Graeme Souness and Kenny Dalglish once came to the same match to watch Chris Viinnicombe whilst he was at Exeter.. Souness was at Rangers at the time and Viicome joined Rangers shortly afterwards.
John Motson, Tommy Trinder, David Beckham, Harry Catterick, Bill Shankly. I'm guessing there is an almost endless list over the years. [Post edited 11 Jun 2016 14:02]

Jake Bugg and Shane Meadows are both big Notts fans and can be seen regularly down the lane when they are in the area
Harold Shipman was also a Notts fan but thankfully he wont be seen down there much now | | | |

Hey, steady Chalkz........Shipman lived and started his exploits down the road from here in Todmorden........before he was infamous, he might have tripped over to San Spotty. | | | |
