FWA Q&A: RAPHAEL HONIGSTEIN
RAPHAEL HONIGSTEIN on being tipped by old ladies...problems with the Gents in Munich...and a cell in IstanbulHave you ever worked in a profession other than football?
I used to write about music and fashion before. I met and interviewed a few cool people, but the overriding memory from those days is a 10-hour wait in a New York recording studio while Timbaland was having his hair cut. At school, I used to pack bags at Munich's premier delicatessen store - Käfer. It was very badly paid, about 5DM an hour, but old ladies would sometimes tip nicely.

FWA Q&A: CHRIS BASCOMBE
CHRIS BASCOMBE of the Daily Telegraph on having to praise Hamilton Ricard...digital incest...and a Royle banHave you ever worked in a profession other than football?
I worked in a pub in the Old Swan area of Liverpool. If the acts booked for the evening’s entertainment didn't end their set with 'The Best' by Tina Turner there was a riot. Used to be quite tricky for the Irish Revolutionary Ceilidh bands to learn the words.
