    I'd prefer nothing named after me, I'd rather it named for me, anyway, everybody calls my gaff the bishops palace, not sure if the palace bit fits though.

    Am sure living in an estate, I would get into trouble if I started burning my rubbish in the back garden. I have a Brown, Green and Black bin for my rubbish which is collected fortnightly.

    Would you give someone a penny for their thoughts?

    I was born in the sixties, I'm sure I done a bit of swinging, but can't remember much of it.

    Only a few meetings in Ireland. I used to follow it a bit now I couldn't name a horse than ran in the last 10 years.

    Do you think Ted Walsh really rode that horse's mother?

    I am. I must admit my interest in football is not what it was though...money, mavericks, agents, racism, hooligans, marketing, manicured pitches, manicured players and general saturation of games have seen to that....whatever happened to muddy boots and jumpers for goalposts. Man United being led out onto the pitch during their pre-season tour by Ronald McFúckingDonald was new low.

    Do you think the colour or style of the shirt a team wears influences their success?

    Maybe but not by much.

    Do you think Brian Clough had the right attitude when he said "i wouldn't say i was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one"?

    I do. I liked his quote about Stuart Pearce who had gotten a knock on the head and when being checked by the physio said he didn't know who he was. Clough told the physio to tell him he was Pele and that he'd be playing as a striker.

    Do you like the smell of singed hair?

    The fringe and eyebrows often got singed as a kid messing with matches and lighters.

    It's always taken me a while to get to sleep at night. I wish I was one of those people that just falls asleep as soon as their head hits the pillow.

    I am never sure which side of the bed i sleep on. If I stand at the foot of the bed the side I sleep on is on the left, but when I am in it I am on the right.

    So is that the left side or the right side ?
