Come tae think of it, Damien would have been an ideal candidate to play Ballymena virgin Martin "3 cd's for a fiver" Gilmore. Dead ringer for the big man, same nose and everything. It's like Michael Jackson and Latoya, I've never seen the two hures at the same time. I think big McReynolds would look the part in an Aberdeen shirt too. That's perfect. Here, and we could get the big brother to play Chrissy Gilmore too. Some cast growing here..... Where is big Marty and his wee sidekick these days? Moved to Aberdeen?

I remember going to the summer scheme in the Leisure Centre and Greg Young being there. We were playing 5-a-side and he was talking about how good a goalkeeper he was, but when we were playing I scored a goal against him. Pure beat out of the nets and hit me a weak tackle. I was about 8. Mad bas. Awful brag post Pele lol -- i meant i was only about 8 and he was about 18!! lol! Near had a concussion after his tackle!! lol!

Marty "Moneybags" Gilmore had a brief spell in Scotland with his sidekick Maxi. He returned after 6 months leaving poor Maxi there to this day on his Jack Jones.....

....auld Jock, what a man. He's deed now as far as I'm aware. Let's face it, we haven't read any stories about him chasing his ma up Wellington Street in the Times recently, he has to be deed. He was a lunitic. I mind one day outside the Fairhill he stopped me with "hey pal, ye havenny gut 10 pee on ye" I thought to mesel, "I'll humour this hure here" and I gave him 10p. He took it saying "thanks aloot pal" and looked down to focus enough to make sure he got it in his pocket before looking up again with me standing in front of him still after giving him 10p and the nutter didn't recognise me (literally 5 to 10 seconds) and jumped "wit the f**k are you daying pal, f**k aff from me, I've a knife in ma pocket", and as he reached in to get it he lost his balance and ran sideways for a few meters before going down a weak slap into Burger King winda. So so funny. There was even auld dolls laughing.....

Another who ye just can't forget is Sherman. What story would be complete without this man??
I remember one fine day, again outside the Fairhill, I met him standing outside Burger King. As we were talking I noticed he had a wee beg in his hand full of to be honest looked like drugs of some sort ( I'm not an expert on said subject) but I ignored it and kept on talking. Eventually he says "I'm on the lookout for one of them gothic ejits and I'm going to offer them this bag of stuff and tell them it'll blow the head aff them. By the time they realise it's just Herbs and Spices I'll be long gone with a tenner in me sky rocket"..legend!!!
Another time, again same place but I don't think it was the same time, we were having a conversation and then wee Connor Gregg and big Mossep Richard Smith (by the way, the next time you see thon British Airways add with all the dolls with the red gear on look out for Richie Rich standing by the gambling machine near the start as they walk past, has to be him) came up and started chatting to me about the footie. Auld Sherman interupts, "why, who do you play for wee man"?? to wee Connor. As soon as Greggy had "Wakehurst" out of his mouth Sherman started, "Awk I couldn't play for them, yer man Gregg hasn't a clue, only wants yes men around him and any time I've watched them he doesn't know when to make changes to win games"....
We all let him tare away with his wee rant and them boys laughed and went on their way. Sherman turns to me asking who that wee fella is so I informed him "that's wee Connor Gregg, his da runs Wakehurst". He went bright red and walked aff!!!! hahahaha...

Just realised there's a while lot of things happen me and every time I'm near a food outlet lol.... One night I was in the Cellar with a few folk having a laugh and that and Sherman was there. He was getting very friendly with wee Austy Waide and they were in and out constantly for a feg/joint. Then later in the evening Austy realised he'd ran out of fegs so he asks wee Pat for a new pack and him and Sherman head aff again..... When they came back in Austy asked Sherman did he want a beer but he really didn't want one and headed aff in a flash. I said to the lads "he must have a wee order he needs to gather up" only joking as everyone knows he's famed for. Then out of nowhere Austy pipes up "now Paul, that's not fair, he's a changed man and a lot of people still have the wrong opinion of him. I really don't think there's any need for you saying that about him".... Just as I started to explain that I really was only joking, being a fan of Sherman (personnally think he's dead on and a good laugh) and that I still believed ye couldn't watch him I realised Austy was hitting himself. He hit his jacket, he hit his jeans at either side of his upper legs, then fumbled inside his coat pockets. I enquired "shem, what are you doing" to which he replied " Where did I put them fegs" Hahaha, Sherman was away with his fegs after him defending him to the hilt. Couldn't have happened better!!!! lol....

Here's 1 for use. A true Ballymena Legend, Mad Aidy. Now that man is as daft as a brush, a good load a years ago Mad Aidy was at a party in the DR and there was some rare specimens in attendance, Mad Aidy was completely outta his nut, so some bad b**tard thought it would be funny to stick a banger inside a skin and tel him it was a joint, Mad Aidy sticks it in his mouth, lights it *(BANG)* it blows the face clean aff him, losing near all off his teeth. see when i heard bout it i couldnt stop laughing. ;D ;D

lol, this thread is brilliant! On the topic of greg young, I heard he was head boy at dunfane. He was delighted, probably didn't realise that this made him chief spastic, literally.
Ratman, you mentioned victor. I always remember being wil' jealous of him. Lying about the town all day drinking, not a care in the world. I tried it a few times, but it just didn't work out in the end. Plus, my ma grounded me...
