It strikes me as typical of players at the highest level that they are happy to tell a story against themselves. I have seen the same trait in Robert Sheehan, who used to write in The Times. Sheehan is another regular at TGR's and you can read more about what goes there in Sheehans's book, The Big Game £9.99 plus p&p from the London Bridge Centre Tel 020-7388-2404.
