Vinnie

Vinnie One of the 20th century's most notorious footballers, Vinnie rose to fame playing for Wimbledon FC's ‘Crazy Gang'. A key part of the team that shocked bookmakers and fans alike by beating Liverpool in the 1998 FA Cup final, Vinnie went on to play for clubs including Leeds, Chelsea, and Wales. Infamous for distracting Paul Gascoigne by grabbing his testicles in a game against Tottenham, Vinnie was sent off 12 times in his career and still holds the record for the fastest ever booking - receiving a yellow card after just three seconds. He retired from the game in 1999. After football, his great passion is acting and in 1998 he made his successful debut as ‘Big Chris' in Guy Ritchie's hit film, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, for which he received an Empire award. Hollywood soon beckoned and Vinnie appeared in a variety of films including Gone in Sixty Seconds, Swordfish, Mean Machine and X-Men: The Last Stand. Born in 1965, Vinnie is married with two children. He now splits his time between his homes in LA and Hertfordshire.
