Karl Pilkington (comedian)

by Mason Pierce
(Columbus, Ohio, USA)

Comedian Karl Pilkington (The Ricky Gervais Show) is an avid Manchester United fan.


“I’m from the Racecourse estate in Sale,” he explains. “Me mam bought me a City kit for Christmas, so I tried supporting them for a bit. But watching them put me off football for a few years.

"Me dad used to drive a black cab and I used to come with him and sit in the front on a crate. We'd get a few jobs at Old Trafford on matchnights and the atmosphere just felt special. I started to spend more time there when me mam got a job in Lou Macari’s chippy. That’s probably when I started supporting United.”
