7. Best Player/s you have played with (can name up to 3 if you like - please choose at least 1 from mods) Mod’s... Matt Lewis - Chases everything down and never gives up, his fitness is second to none.  Non Mod’s... Will Tattersall – Absolute machine, scored more goals than Romario before his glittering career was cut short to take up rugby. 

8. Best Player you have played against (If you know name)  Some ex pro I played against for my team back home. His nickname was nutmeg for obvious reasons, not my greatest afternoon of football it has to be said.

9. Football Idol  Paul Scholes – Different gravy but I can’t fail to mention Jimmy Bullard, I love that guy.

10. Favourite supporting football memory  Gotta be Nou Camp ’99 or Beckham’s free kick against Greece, both put a smile on my pretty face.

11. Worst supporting football Memory Watching John Terry and Frank Lampard lift the premiership title.

12. Greatest playing memory/achievement (Mods and Other club if needed)   I scored a goal once.

13. Worst Mods memory  Not been here long but being dropped from the 3rds for the 3rds v 4ths derby last year only to make the bench for the 4ths wasn’t my best moment.  I once scored a hat-trick of own goals for a team I used to play for back home as well, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when I lobbed my own keeper from 20 yards out for the 3rd.

14. Mods Hero   Richard Hoole, the only 40 year old man I have had persistently trying to shove his tongue down my throat on a night out. 

15. Best ground you've played at Fortress bedquilts.

16. Favourite Band/Artist and Track at the moment The Clubland Culprits.

17. Pre-match preparation routine  Not a morning person so it’s usually a rush into Headingley to grab a sausage butty and then go and listen to one of Benno’s inspirational team talks.

18. What do you do on a Saturday when not playing football  Usually try and watch one of the other teams.

19. Best Friend/s at the club  Pouncett and Matty are my old chapski’s but I get on with everyone.

20. If you could change 1 thing about the club what would it be?   We should all get matching mod’s tattoos.
