Defender Maxim Taloverov of Plymouth shared in an interview with The Guardian how fans came to his aid when he forgot his passport.
“Fifty meters from the bank, I remembered that I left my passport at the hotel. The fans recognized me, took a photo, and said, ‘If you need anything, we’re always here to help.’”

I asked, “Can you give me a ride to the hotel and back?” One man moved to the back seat and said, “Maxi, hop in front — my wife will drive.” In just five minutes, they shared many stories about the club and the city.
I will always remember my debut match (2:1 against West Brom). The next evening, I was out for a walk, and fans were shouting, “Maxi!” I was wearing a hat, so I don’t know how they recognized me,” Taloverov stated.
