It must have been The Secret Footballer, eh?

And yes, the Football Association does have to put up with a lot from its players. Poor FA!

Nice guy, highly articulate and interesting. Has a masters degree in some discipline of aeronautical engineering.
Don't ask why he was sacked by Charlton, would get FT into muddy waters

No, not poor FA !

Jackie Stewart in T3 Flounge. Singapore bound I'm guessing. One of my earliest memories is sitting in his race car at the Kelvin Hall in Glasgow, around 1971. Hero.

Judging by various twitter posts, all the Singapore flights out of LHR tonight are full of personalities from the world of F1.

Noel Gallagher , the rest of his High flying Birds and British General Sir Mike Jackson on the BA9 to Bangkok on Monday night.

Noel Gallagher in 2K, had a red wine and went to bed. The rest of his band were in CW, as far as I could tell.

He is probably very familiar with the over-heating on BA long haul flights.
