South West premier events company with star quality

by Tom Hutton - Sport South Devon

Have you ever wanted to ask one of Englands most gifted, controversial, popular, troubled and legendary footballers all the questions that some, in short, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the balls (pardon the pun) to ask? Well, nowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your chance!

Date: Thurs 8th December 2011 Venue: Riviera International Conference Centre

he Gazza and Greavsie Road Show is the first of many fantastic â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;an evening with...â&#x20AC;&#x2122; style shows coming to Torbay brought to you by Quay Occasions. Frank Baker of Quay Occasions said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We specialise in organising and providing social events of any size from a Concert to a Casino night or an After Dinner Speaker to an Awards evening. This Gazza & Greavsie Evening was a great show to kick start this kind of event in the area.â&#x20AC;? Greavsie, in his days as a hugely

popular television personality, spotted the potential of Gazza the player earlier than most. He brought him to the attention of Saint and Greavsie viewers in his Newcastle career, calling him names like Mars Boy and Fatboy. It was all said with affection, Jimmy pointing out that he had extraordinary skill and potential. Paul went on to become the most entertaining footballer of his generation, being idolised at each of his clubs, notably Newcastle, Tottenham, Lazio, Rangers, Middlesbrough and Everton. He became a national treasure during the 1990 world Cup finals in Italy, earning wide applause and appreciation for his performances and sympathy for his tears when he cried as England made a late, dramatic exit. Gazza scored ten goals in 57 England appearances. Coincidentally, Greavsie also won 57 caps, and he scored a remarkable 44 goals.

Another (sadder) coincidence is that on their retirement from playing both Gazza and Greavsie had problems with alcohol. Showing enormous character, Jimmy beat the bottle and has been â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;dryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; since way back in 1978. Gazza has found the fight much harder, but we are delighted to report that he has been sober since before Christmas and everybody is behind him as he marches forward on the road to recovery. Both Jimmy and Paul have fascinating football stories to tell, and their no-holds-barred question and answer sessions at their shows are certain to be absorbing, amusing and, no doubt dangerous! This will be the Tour of the Year for football followers, and tickets are certain to be in high demand. So get in early. Call the box office on: 0844 800 3036.

He will be coming along to talk about Tabata interval training which turns the conventional ideas about fitness on its head. Tabata interval training is the single most effective type of high intensity interval training, it’s also the most intense by far, and surprisingly it's the shortest in duration, it only lasts for twenty minutes... broken down to intervals of 20 second work 10 seconds rest 8 times over 4 sets. After his talk, he will be leading a Tabata class to show you what it’s all about. http://www. gladiatorszone.co.uk/gladiators/ male/hunter/
