1) HOW ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO THE SEASON?
I AM REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO THE SEASON BECAUSE WE WANT TO SEE HOW WE CAN DO STEPPING UP A LEAGUE WITH BASICALLY THE SAME SQUAD AS LAST SEASON, IT IS ALSO MY FIRST EVER SEASON IN THE 1ST DIVISION.
2) WHAT ARE YOUR EXPECTATIONS FOR THE CLUB THIS SEASON?
I THINK WE ARE GOOD ENOUGH TO HOLD OUR OWN IN THIS DIVISION AND HOPEFULLY WE WILL BE CELEBRATING LIKE THE END OF LAST SEASON.
3) HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT BEEN AT AIRDRIE UNITED?
I HAVE SAID IT SINCE DAY 1 THAT I AM DELIGHTED TO BE AT AIRDRIE UNITED AS IT IS A GREAT CLUB TO PLAY FOR AS YOU ARE TREATED VERY WELL AND THE BOY'S ARE A GREAT BUNCH TO PLAY WITH.
4) HOW DID YOU FEEL AFTER THE LAST GAME OF THE SEASON LAST SEASON?
IT WAS A CATCH 22 SITUATION AS I WANTED TO CELEBRATE MY FIRST PROMOTION BUT AT THE SAME TIME NOT KNOWING IF I WAS GOING TO BE AT THE CLUB THIS SEASON, BUT I WAS DELIGHTED TO BE OFFERED ANOTHER YEAR CONTRACT AND LOOK FORWARD TO THE SEASON AHEAD.
5) WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE GAME YOU PLAYED IN LAST SEASON AND WHY?
THE LAST GAME AGAINST MORTON WAS PROBABLY MY FAVOURITE BECAUSE OF THE PARTY ATMOSPHERE THAT DAY AND WE ALSO PLAYED WELL AND GAINED A BIT OF REVENGE OVER MORTON. I ALSO HAD A LOT OF MY FAMILY THERE.
6) WHAT WAS YOUR FAVOURITE PRE-SEASON GAME AND WHY?
THE PRE-SEASON GAMES EVERYONE HAS BEEN PLAYING DIFFERNT PARTS OF GAMES TO GET OUR FITNESS SO I HAVE NO PARTICULAR FAVOURITE BUT I DID ENJOY OUR 3 DAYS UP NORTH.
7) WHAT ARE YOUR PERSONAL AMBITIONS FOR THIS SEASON?
MY PERSONAL AMBITIONS FOR THE SEASON ARE THE SAME AS ALWAYS, TO STAY CLEAR OF INJURY, TRY AND GET A RUN IN THE TEAM AND PLAY WELL AND HOPEFULLY WE WILL HAVE SOME SORT OF REWARD AT THE END.
8) WHO IS THE THICKEST TEAMMATE IN THE SQUAD?
NOW THAT MARTIN GLANCY HAS LEFT THERE IS THE TITLE OF "THICKEST GUY AT THE CLUB" UP FOR GRAB'S JUST NOW THAT WOULD PROBABLY GO TO MARK ROBERTS WHO I WOULDN'T SAY WAS "THICK" BUT "ABSOLUTELY NUTS".
9) WHAT IS THE FUNNIEST THING YOU HAVE SEEN HAPPEN AT AIRDRIE UNITED?
THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE THE DAY WE PLAYED STENNY AND THERE WAS A POT OF TEA AND A PLATE OF BISCUITS IN THE DRESSING ROOM, SO I DECIDED TO STICK A WHITE BAR OF SOAP IN AMONGST THE BISCUITS AND OLD KITMAN JD STARTED TUCKING INTO THE TEA AND BISCUITS, MYSELF, GOWSER AND MARTIN GLANCY COULD HARDLY STOP LAUGHING WHEN OLD JD BIT INTO THE BAR OF SOAP THINKING IT WAS A BIT OF SHORTBREAD! HE HAS STILL GOT SOAP IN HIS FALSE TEETH TO THIS DAY!
10) LASTLY WHAT WAS YOUR PROUDEST MOMENT LAST SEASON AT AIRDRIE UNITED?
MY PROUDEST MOMENT HAS TO BE LIFTING THE DIVISION 2 TITLE IN FRONT OF OUR OWN FANS AND MY FAMILY. I ALSO HAD MY 1 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER ON THE PARK WITH ME DURING THE CELEBRATIONS AND I HAD A TEAR IN MY EYE.
