Utter nonsense.
He never played with Robbie.
There’s another famous Gazza Enland anecdote from around that time. I forget exactly who tells it, another member of Hoddle’s England squad, back when he forced them to go speak to his personal faith healer Eileen Drewery.
This footballer (it may even have been Robbie, thinking about it now lol) says he went in, didn’t take it at all seriously, and a visibly annoyed Drewery told him that he had a demon living inside him. He went back into the dressing room, boasting about what she’d told him.
Gazza pipes up: “That’s nothing, lad, she told me I’ve got five!”
You sure he wasn’t talking about his mate Jimmy FiveBellies?
Just filling my LFC hot water bottle… I think one of the product codes may be better suited for Everton merchandise.
