You have been chosen as Interviewee No.6 for our Fantasy Footy section of Cliff Brown's website . Answer the questions anyway you feel fit but the more humour the better !
1 - John , firstly start by telling us a bit about yourself , Age , Sex , Marital Status , Where you live etc..
I am 23 years old, married and live in Tarleton. I have a 3 month old daughter called Freja. I am an International Allstar as seen on TV and will not say any more because I don’t want my private life splashed around in the press.
2 - How long have you been playing in this league & how do you know Cliff the organiser ?
This is my third season in the league and I am enjoying it immensely. I know Cliff due to him being my wife’s uncle. Also he asked me to be his friend and I accepted.
3 - What football team do you support ?
I support Manchester United.
4 - You have a pretty good record at Fantasy Footy and are probably our No.1 player , have you got any tips for those languishing at the bottom such as Deetown Players .
Yes if you think you are sliding down the league give cliff (Mr. Yahoo) £10 and he will add some fantasy points on for you. I think the going rate is £20 for a bye in the cups but Cliff will have to confirm I am afraid.
5 - Your domination may soon be over as The Treblebears closes in on your great start . How do you think this season will end up ? Give us your Top 4 predictions .
I do not want to make any predictions at this vital stage of the season. There are some good teams out there and it could go right to the wire. I have found that injuries have figured a lot in my season, which has caused my recent lack of form. But I am quietly confident I have the strength and depth in my squad to put up a good fight and retain my title.
6 - What car do you drive and if money was no object what car would you drive ?
I drive a Peugeot 206. If money was no object I would not drive, I would hire cliff as my chauffeur (subject to references of course).
7 - Who are your 3 fav singer(s) ?
Cheeky girls, Euxton St Mary’s choir and Will Young. A real mixed bag
8 - What are your 3 fav films ?
Casino, Good fellas and Lord of the Rings.
9 - What are your Fav TV Programmes ?
A Touch of Frost, Only Fools and Horses and Alan Partridge.
10 - John , some readers of this Interview will not be aware of your recent trip to Munich . Tell them about the locals mistaking you for a famous footballer ?
Yes apparently Michael Owen was in Munich at the same time as me trying to find a better club and apparently he started impersonating me signing autographs in my name. What people would do to try and be recognised as an Allstar.
11 - What's your Pet Hate ?
My pet dog Sasha hates the hoover if you must know she is scared to death of it. What an unusual question.
12 - If you were stuck alone on a desert island and you were granted 3 things you could have with you what would they be ?
An endless supply of lager to stop me dehydrating an endless supply of eggs, rice and sweet and sour sauce and the third one would be a china man to rustle me up a number 22.
13 - You've just become Prime Minister , what's your first policy you'd introduce ?
More income tax for computer operators and put whiskey prices up to annoy all the Fat Cat MPs who keep freezing tax on spirits to suit themselves. Deport all ginger people.
14 - John , Lancashire folk call you a scouser , scousers call you a woolly back ! What exactly are you ?
It’s obvious a scouse sheep. Your answer is in your question. I did not know you where good at riddles Cliff, have you got a riddle book for Christmas or did you just extract the question from a search engine?
15 - If you could be an animal , what would it be and why ?
The joke’s over now, don’t milk it.
16 - Any funny stories to share with us about being a B.T. engineer ?
Yes but I do not want to repeat them due to this interview going on the internet.
17 - What's you favourite pastime ?
Football
18 - I believe you live in a village called Tarleton . Sell Tarleton to us . What are it's attractions ?
Lying between Southport and Preston, the parish of Tarleton is flanked by the River Douglas which forms the district boundary. Including the hamlets of Mere Brow and Sollom, the parish also incorporates Tarleton Moss, and is an important market gardening area.
19 - You've just won £5 million pound on the lottery , what's the 1st 3 things you buy ?
I’d buy back all the thing’s of mine back that my wife Kim sold on the car boot sale when she found out she was having a baby. Most of all my pool table.
20 - And finally , if you were to emigrate where would you go and why ?
After selling Tarleton to everybody I have just sold it to myself I think I will stay right here.
