Team mates

- Rotherham Utd goalkeeper

Adam Collin -

Best mate at the club? I’ve got two of them, Danny Ward and Lee Frecklingt­on. I room with Danny and me and Freckers are long servants at the club, so we’ve got to know each other pretty well over the years. Last to buy dinner? Danny Collins likes to look after his money. He is not particular­ly generous. The FIFA king? Jonson ClarkeHarr­is. He’s always on it and so is Grant Ward. I don’t really play those sorts of games myself but they’re on about it all the time. Goodness knows what they’re talking about. Worst dressed? There’s competitio­n, but it’s Kirk Broadfoot. He’s got some bad gear. He keeps saying that it’s expensive gear but it’s still bad, shocking at times. Dressing room DJ? For match days it’s always Kirk Broadfoot. He’s the one that does all the music in the dressing room. It’s always his phone that goes on and he doesn’t let anyone else near the speakers. Most skilful? Joe Newell has got great feet. He loves to twist and turn defenders – even though he’s not lightning quick. Late for training? Easy, Jonson ClarkeHarr­is. He’s had a few fines this year, and he ended up contributi­ng quite a bit of money to the Christmas do. Teacher’s pet? Matt Derbyshire. He’s always sucking up to the gaffer and knocking on his door, going into the office for little meetings and chats. He gets hammered for it by the lads. Best cook? Danny Collins can knock up a nice meal. The worst cook would again have to go to Jonson Clarke-Harris because when we stay away, he doesn’t really eat the same food as the rest of the lads. He likes his basics, very plain food. Plain chicken, a few baked beans – that’s about all he eats! First on the dance floor? Danny Ward. He loves a night out, so he’s always in and around the dance floor. He doesn’t have many moves but he’s always out and about. Most likely to disgrace themselves at the Christmas party? Our Christmas do was fairly laid back, but Richard Smallwood takes the title. I don’t think he’s a massive drinker at all and those two days… he was a different man! He’s got the nickname Dexter now after the TV show because he was a bit of an angry drunk. Worst tattoo? Jonson ClarkeHarr­is again – he’s got a clown on his neck! Never puts the phone down? Lee Frecklingt­on. He likes a bit of everything, Snap-chat, Twitter, Face-book. He’s on it all. Partial to the sunbed? There aren’t too many fake tans up here, but it’s Joe Mattock. He’s most likely to be found in a tanning shop. Going to make best manager? Danny Collins. He’s 35 now so he’s been around a bit. He’s played at all levels and knows all the ins and outs of football.
