I found the ones on Socrates and Caszely particularly moving.

I was living in Manchester at the time. The lady next to me at work had a 7 year old grandson who was a City fan. One day she sees him with a United cap and asks him if he's changed sides. His reply: "no but now that I know Cantona can do Kung Fu, I like them a little." -
