Website roving reporter Lauren Hall overcame her disappointment at not getting Doots in her Christmas stocking and nipped down to training to ask a few questions of yet another member of the "Yorkshire Mafia"

Q: What is the best thing about being at Stalybridge?
A: Just all the lads really. All the lads have been good from the start of the season, and the fans have been great. Oh, and I loved scoring my first goal at Hyde!

Q: And the worst?
A: Probably losing against Hyde!

Q: Which team would you love to play for if you weren?t at Stalybridge?
A: Barcelona

Q: Do you support a league team?
A: Yes, I'm a Bladesman. Sheffield United.

Q: What would you be if you weren?t a footballer?
A: I am a Sales Rep at the minute so it would be that at the minute but I don?t know really. I suppose other than that I'd like to be a film star!

Q: What was it like to score your first goal for Stalybridge?
A: Brilliant! We were up against it at the time as well and they'd got back to 2-1 so to score a third and kill them off was good timing. I hit it well didn't I?

Q: Who has the worst dress sense in the team?
A: It?s a toss up between the two keepers Buxton and Pettinger. Probably even stevens between the two.

Q: What is the most expensive thing you have ever bought?
A: Probably a car. Sorry, no my house.

Q: Who is the best player you have played alongside?
A: Marco Gabbiadini when he was at Darlington

Q: Whats your favourite song at the moment?
A: Probably...I?m stuck on that.. oh it's Rihanna, "pon de replay".

Q: Who do you travel to games with?
A: There's 5 of us. Petts, Syke-o, Blackie, Juggsy and me.

Q: Who is the funniest in the dressing room?
A: Bucko's not all there. He's two chips short of a buttie!

Q: Tea or coffee?
A: We don't drink coffee in Yorkshire. Tea for me.

Q: Salad or chips?
A: Whoever said salad was good for you got it dead wrong. Chips every time!

Q: Quiet night in or night out with the lads?
A: Quiet night in with the missus and my two lovely children.
