Team mates
Best mate at the club? Luke James. He’s my fellow northerner and seeing as he’s a bit younger than me, I need to look after him. He’s a good lad and we get on really well. Last to buy dinner? Kgosi Ntlhe, our leftback. He is really tight. I’ve never been on a night out with him, but from what I’ve heard I wouldn’t want to! He goes missing when it comes to paying for anything at all. The FIFA king? Before I had my son, it was me, but I’m not allowed to play any more! Marcus Maddison is the best and so he should be, because playing on that is all he does. Ricardo Santos has been known to give him a good game. Worst dressed? Marcus Maddison. He will wear expensive footwear with an Asda suit. He dresses like he is from Brooklyn. The dressing room DJ? There is a bit of rotation, but at the moment it’s Ricardo Santos. He is not bad, though there is a bit of questionable rap. I like the house stuff he puts on, I would do the same. The most skillful? Erhun Oztumer – the Turkish Messi. He’s not afraid of a flick or trick in a game and is a bit of a dead ball specialist. He’s a great free-kick taker. Late for training? Marcus Maddison always gets in on the minute. I don’t know how he does it, he cuts it so fine. If you are late you get a fine and I think he had a couple early on in the season, but he has been all right of late. The best cook? Christian Burgess is always talking about meals he is making. Salmon dishes are his speciality, according to him, though I also think he fancies himself as an all-rounder in the kitchen. First on the dancefloor? There’s a few! Jack Baldwin, Ricardo Santos and Kyle Vassell are a lively bunch and all like a night out. I’m not bad, I can throw a few shapes for a big fella. I’ve had a few compliments! Most likely to disgrace themselves at the Christmas party? Michael Smith. He’s a quiet lad about the place and comes across as the ultimate professional. But take him out of the football environment and he is a bit of a livewire. The worst tattoo? Michael Bostwick has something on his back he got in Tenerife when he was 16. It’s some sort of symbol, but it is impossible to identify what it is! That’s definitely the worst. Never puts their phone down? Aaron McLean is the main culprit for that. He is always on Twitter or Instagram, but it’s not for me all that. There are others as well. Jon Taylor’s phone is never far from his hand. Going to make the best manager? Grant McCann. At the moment he is our assistant manager, but it was not long ago he was just one of the lads in the squad. He knows what it’s all about and I think he’s going to have a great career. He’s a Peterborough legend and a great man-manager. Aaron McLean is doing his coaching badges, too.
