His overhead kick away at... Luton????
Wherever it was it was a fantastic goal.


Barnet. A brilliant goal, completely out of character!

Was at Barnet - he mentions it in the interview.

It's interesting reading and I enjoyed it.  If you want to make it even more professional, you could ask someone to proofread it first.  But thanks for doing the interview - it was well worth reading.  Will you be doing any more?


Thanks - it was done via email and I've obviously missed a few of the spelling and grammatical errors in his replies.

I've actually done a fair few interviews with former players and I've more lined up - interviewing Michael Reddy very soon. All meant as a bit of fun and not particularly 'professional'.

Thanks for those too - I think I've seen some of them before, but the Graham Hockless one I found quite surprising.  He seems to have his head well screwed on.

The Michael Reddy interview sounds interesting too.  I'd like to see some of our more controversial former players interviewed by a GTFC fan, just out of morbid curiosity to find out how they view their side of things!  Maybe lull them into a false sense of security first by asking them about their former careers, and then get going with some slightly more GTFC-relevant questions.

With this in mind, my top four would include Ashley Sestanovich, Barry Conlon, Nick Colgan and Martin Butler.  

I think interviews with Tom Newey and Phil Barnes might also prove to be quite juicy.

Just read the Graham Hockless interview and found that a very good read. Some long, in-depth and honest answers from him.

Yeah, I enjoyed the Hockless one. He's used some words in there that show he's a teacher, not a footballer!

That Conlon interview in the Irish press last year showed that it's all everyone else's fault, for everything. Not his. No. Definitely not.

I think he might blame it all on a) Neil Woods and b) his poorly knee.  But I'd be very interested to know why he played so poorly against his former club Bradford City at home that time - he was absolute pants that night but I still defended him to the hilt on here (more fool me).     My guess is that he probably won't even remember that game - but I still do.

Sestanovich is still in prison isn't he?  I've been trying to track down Barry Conlon but it's proving pretty tough. Tried desperately to interview Gary Jones as one of my all time Town favourites but he wouldn't do it

When you interview Michael Reddy make sure you ask him about the Justin Whittle wedding urine up before the Play-off final, i've always wounded what went on.
