Fan Wanted Player's Glass

See Sky News

A football fan has offered £500 for a glass used by England and Liverpool star Steven Gerrard.

The Spanish supporter was dining at top Liverpool restaurant Room when he spotted the player and teammate Jamie Carragher having a meal.

When the two left, the fan begged for Gerrard's glass and offered to buy it for £500, which in Cockney-rhyming slang is a monkey.

But he was left disappointed after staff refused his request.

Restaurant boss John Pallagi said: "The request came out of the blue, but we had to say no.

"We just wouldn't do that sort of thing, we have a duty to respect the privacy of all our customers."
