Name:
Darren Roland
Age: 23
Club: Golden Lion Athletic FC
Position at club:
Captain/Midfield Maestro
Where will your team
finish in the league and why:
We have the potential to
break into the top 3 this year and with a bit of belief,
I think we can do it. I think we can win a trophy this
year, having lost in 2 semi's in 2 years booooo!
Who is your clubs joker:
Club joker is a tough one as we have a whole host of
idiots, the top 5 are probably Dodge, Smithy, Brownie,
Myself and Charlie.
Biggest success in football:
Being invited to play in front of
a scout from every club in England at Upton Park in
April.
Biggest disappointment in football:
Snapping my anterior
cruciate knee ligament so I cant go to Upton Park.
Ever been sent off:
Yeah unfortunately twice,
but those days are over! I'm a lot calmer on the pitch
and have learnt which tackles I will win and which too
avoid so I don't get booked!
Who do you support:
By
far the greatest team the world has ever seen and its
ASTON VILLA
What's the worst piece of advice you've ever been
given in life:
Eat the blue pill........cut the green wire....don't eat
yellow snow..... haven't really had any really shocking
advice given to me but my advice to you would be, "Live
your life how you want to live it - That makes you the
person you are today"!
Describe yourself in three words:
Courageous, Thoughtful,
Hilarious I'm making it up who can actually do that in
3 words??!
Tell us something about yourself that only you know:
I'm an alien abductee! I suffer
from sleep paralysis (where you wake up and cant
move/feel like there is someone in the room with you)
and apparently if you look it up on the internet, it
goes back to being abducted by aliens. How cool is that!
What type
of music do you like:
Rock/Alternative, I hate all this pop and R'n'B; I'm
really glad that Joe didn't get number 1 at Christmas!
Favourite Restaurant: To go
out for a meal with my girlfriend, it would probably be
Zizzi up the mailbox in Brumtown; really nice Italian
food, not too pricey either, but I do like a good old
charlies kebab, shame no one knows what's in them
though!
Favourite hobby apart from football:
I
play the drums, I used to be in a band but we split up
after getting screwed over in the final of the national
battle of the bands (stupid radio stations)!
What's your mobile phone ringtone:
Beast and the Harlot by Avenged Sevenfold TUNE
Give us a good website to log onto: http://www.soccermanager.com
What's the most daring thing you've ever done:
I swam
with sharks in South Africa! What an amazing
experience! If anyone goes to Cape Town during the World
Cup, then I would advise going on the Great White Shark
adventure, its truly amazing and a really good life
experience (Check it out
http://www.apexpredators.com
- That's two websites! - Ed)
Why do you like the Bromsgrove League:
I like the league because
I feel it is very well run and even if you have rivalry
with other teams, everyone gets along just fine, as we
all know each other!
Worst pitch you've ever seen in Sunday morning
football: When
I was younger I played for Meadow Park on the pitch at
Aston Fields Cricket Club. That pitch was awful, but now
it has to be Stoke Prior where we used to play on the
slope!
What would you do to improve Sunday morning football:
I would have the council mark out all of the football
pitches for us at least once a month! If it snowed, the
council should sweep the pitch or cover the pitches
before it snowed, or maybe even put under soil heating
in! I think I would like to put the fun back into the
game as well!
What's the funniest thing you've seen on a football
field: When we
played at the foot of the Malvern's last year, it was
minus 5 and snowing/hailing. We played against some
bloody good players and we were 6-0 down at half
time but pulled back to 6-4. After the game we were
getting changed and our star studded right back had pink
hot pants on! He still gets stick for it now!
Who should be England's Number 1 keeper:
Carlo Cudicini. He has an
English passport so why not or even Manuel Almunia! But
I cant see Fabio picking either of those so probably
Paul Robinson...........Luke Young and Stephen Warnock
for left and right back!
Capello or Sven: Definitely
Capello. I met Gary Cahill in Mexico and he told me when
Sven made Becks captain they used to have secret
meetings at England training camps and all the players
got the impression Becks was picking the team!
Wenger or Ferguson:
Neither - Don't like them
at all. Ferguson doesn't talk to the media if they lose
and Wenger never saw it! Martin O'Neil all the way.
Hanson or Lawrenson:
Shearer! Those two are idiots. Hanson may as well wear a
Liverpool shirt on match of the day and Lawro is
annoying.
Stubbs or Keys: Stubbs -
Solid as a rock.
Facebook or Twitter:
I don't have either
sorry, I think they take over peoples lives!
X Factor or Strictly Come Dancing: I'm
rarely in on a Saturday, so I don't watch
either............SUBO!!! |
