| How many years supporting Hinckley? |
| 25 years, firstly with Athletic. Saw them beat Staffordshire Police in my first league game in Aug 1977 |
| Favourite League Football Team? |
| Leicester City |
| Favourite Hinckley Footballer, Past and Present? |
| Past - For United Morton Titterton, great player (and still is), and for Athletic Tony Canning superb left back who always had lots of time to talk with fans. |
| Present - Stuart Storer. We are lucky to have a player like Stuart he reads the game so well and his fitness is an example to all. |
| Favourite League Footballer, Past and Present? |
| Past - As a kid I always admired Leeds United`s Allan Clarke for his goalscoring abilities. |
| Present - David Beckham, great right foot and a good role model |
| Best and Worst Non-League ground visited? |
| Best - Holker Street, Barrow. Great atmosphere |
| Worst - Both Newport County and Grantham are horrid places. |
| Best and Worst League ground visited? |
| Best - Highbury, Arsenal. |
| Worst - Kenilworth Road, Luton, before it was done up. |
| Best and Worst Hinckley game attended, and why? |
| Best - Grays Athletic away FA cup 1st round, very emotional. |
| Worst - the defeat in the FA Trophy at Blyth was very disappointing as I had driven over 200 miles to witness a very lacklustre performance. |
| Best and Worst League game attended, and why? |
| Best - Not a league game but I will always remember Leicester City beating non league Leatherhead 3-2 at Filbert Street in the FA cup after trailing 2-0. |
| Worst - Saw Coventry lose 1-0 to WBA in 1979 at Highfield Road. Mind numbing. |
| Any other sporting interests? |
| I like to watch a bit of Cricket and was once a decent Badminton player (honest!!!) |
| Hinckley United Wishlist (realistically!) |
| This year to stay up, and in the future play Conference football at our new home. |
| Anything else about Hinckley United? |
| I would love to see the Hinckley public turn out in greater numbers. I really don't think they understand the level we are playing at. |
