Fulham Defender Stuck


Fulham defender Moritz Volz found himself stuck in his toilet for about 40 minutes when he stopped by his loo before heading for Fulham's pre season friendly with Brighton. His door dah jammed when he tried to leave his loo.

Volz said: "I was trying everything but although the handle was moving, nothing was happening. I checked my pockets but my mobile wasn’t on me and it was then that I really started to panic. After a few minutes of continued attempts to budge the door I started shouting, because fortunately our cleaner was in. But she couldn't open the door from the other side either, so I asked her to get hold of our handyman to rescue me."

"But it was all happening at the same time as London was being hit by a monsoon so all the workmen were super busy because the building was being flooded. So I decided stay calm and look at the funny side as I sat in there stranded for the next 40 minutes. At least I had a few books to flick through. With the bad weather going on outside it felt like being in some sort of Hitchcock movie - the light was flickering, there were all these creaking noises, and from outside all I could hear was thunder and rain.

"My girlfriend was on holiday at the time too, so if the cleaner hadn’t been there I could have been stuck in that poxy room for days! Oh well, at least I was in the right place to be crapping myself. And I can’t let rip about poor plumbers on this one can I? Bloody carpenters! Can't even make a proper door!"
