Here's the story of Vodka Vic - the man behind my username. Who else remembers him rip Runcorn apart? I was in the Paddock that day- man was he talented.

I didn't know there was a 'real' Vodka Vic until I read that - he makes Stan Bowles seem relatively sensible.

Was only just discussing Kasule the other day, I remember him being quality although he only played 2 games according to the story. Need to check my match programmes from back in the day.

Bri Little's thoughts on Victor
Brian Little wrote:McNeill tried to send Kasule on loan to Darlington for a month, but he didn't even last that long. Darlo manager Brian Little commented: "There's nothing wrong with Victor the footballer, but his activities off the field have proved a disruptive factor. With his reputation and one or two things we decided it was too much of a gamble." The Shrewsbury Chronicle agreed: "Wild winger Vic Kasule is fast becoming football's most unwanted man."

As well as everything in Victor Kasule's colourful past, a lesser known fact is that he was actually in the pub in Glasgow that was demolished by that police helicopter! But fittingly, he survived to tell the tale...

Great story - apparently he couldn't stand vodka either!

remember him playing and thinking what a talent he was. shame he's had to learn the hard way. lucky to survive the Clutha disaster.
