Players and celebs pay tribute to Ryan Giggs at film premiere
Ryan Giggs: True Red pulls out all the stars
On Monday, a DVD celebrating Ryan Giggs’ illustrious 17-year career will be released, and in celebration a premiere of the film was held in Manchester. Carlos Tevez, Cristiano Ronaldo, Wes Brown, Rio Ferdinand, Anderson, Nani, Patrice Evra, Nemanja Vidic, Park Ji-Sung, Dimitar Berbatov, Owen Hargreaves, Jonny Evans, John O’Shea and Michael Carrick all walked the carpet rocking a snazzy jeans/ white shirt/ blazer combo in honour of the Welshman. Rio even augmented his outfit with a cravat, making him look dead sophisticated.
Celebrity fans Angus Deyton, Peter Hook and monkey man Ian Brown also turned out, but those reinforced crowd barriers were severly tested by the cream of Manchester’s acting talent, including True Red narrator Ralf Little, Will Mellor, Max Beesley and Corrie’s Kevin Webster.
Liam Fray of The Courteneers said:
“Ryan has been an inspiration to everyone at the club. I was a ball boy for United as a kid and Ryan was a true gentleman, the model professional and a great ambassador for the club.”
When Fray was asked who the hell he was and what was he doing at the premiere, he had no comment.
