Does anyone remember this? The England squad had walked out onto the pitch to play a match when an imposter wearing full England kit managed to get onto the pitch and stand with the players to get his picture taken. I remember seeing a picture of Gary Neville looking to the side and thinking "Who the buggery is that?".

Anyone?

It was Karl Power and he actually went out with Manchester United.

He also did a cricket stunt as well, and another few I can't remember...

Although it was Man Utd, not England.

I think he did it with the England cricket team aswell.

Possibly one of the funnies things ever when you consider that the United lads knew about it, yet their obvious confusion led to his photo being taken with them anyway.

It's also quite scary to think that anyone could do that.

Yeah you would have thought that somebody would have stopped him.

I remember this same fella went out to the crease in an England cricket match, he got all the way out there and nobody noticed cus he had full cricket attire on and then he took off his helmet and waved his bat around and then he was escourted off it was funny. I also think he did a few others aswell.
