cantona1Fans of all ages gathered for the Irish premiere of Ken Loach’s Looking For Eric at the Light House Cinema in Smithfield, reports The Star newspaper. Most were hoping to catch a glimpse of leading man, and footballing deity, Eric Cantona.

“It’s a surprise for me”, Cantona is quoted as saying of the reception he received. “Because some of those here today – especially the young – were not even born when I retired.” Not to be a stickler or anything, but Cantona retired in May 1997. Crazy fool.
