THE GOSSIP

<p>Home-grown defender Cleworth has told the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rJiM9k7i58k " target="_blank"><em>Men In Blazers</em></a> podcast when asked to pick out the most memorable jaw-dropping moment in what has been a remarkable adventure: “It was probably when Will Ferrell came into the changing room. </p><p>“Now, since, there have been a few more A-list celebrities that have come in and it’s a bit more normal. But when he came in it was like ‘what is going on here?’ He came in just before a game. He was just walking around the changing room and the lads were completely starstruck. That was probably the one moment where I was like ‘what is going on?’ </p><p>“The first time that I met Ryan and Rob when they came over, that was probably a bit like ‘this is really strange’, because they were so normal straight away. Now you think ‘well obviously they are going to be normal’, but those two moments were ‘what is going on?’”</p>

At the end of the day they are just the owners’ friends that are coming over to watch a game. When you meet these people, you realise how down to earth they are. They are such interesting people as well that it’s good to speak to them and talk about their life.”</p>
