 Best moment in football?

 Winning the League this season. I think it was even better

 than  the last time we won, since it was a winner takes all

 game against Hibernian. I also felt at times during the match that

 everything was going against us to make it as hard as  possible. That made it all the sweeter

Worst moment in football?

Probably losing the Scottish Cup final last year. We let ourselves down badly that day.


Most difficult opponent?
Kim Little. Having been around for a few years now!, she is undoubtedly head and shoulders above everyone else and given her age, it is frightening how good she could be. The only player to have ever come close at that age is Donna James..

Best goal scored?

Not my best, but my most important to date, would be a header against Kilmarnock a few years ago. It was a really close game and we had to win to win the League, which would be for our first ever time. It was 1-1, really tight and the team were pretty nervous. However, just before half time I scored to make it 2-1. The goal changed the whole shape of the game and we went on to win comfortably 5-1.

One player you're glad to have in your team and why?
This season, it is easily Megan Sneddon. I don't think we could play the system we do as effectively without her. Despite her height she is fantastic in the air, tackles strong and hard, is fit, wants to win and even scores the occasional goal. Although I emphasise occasional ;)

Team supported as a girl?

Aberdeen

Favourite player?

In order of history - Eric Black, Eoin Jess, Russell Anderson. Now Aberdeen don't have anyone good enough to be a favourite!

Current male player you are most like and why?
I don't think I would do any player the disservice of answering that. Some centre half in the Vauxhall Conference who can't head or pass will do just fine.

Football ambitions?
Immediate aim is to progress out of the first group stage of Europe. Beyond that would be the treble next year. I refuse to retire until we do that. Not that I am saying I will if we win it either mind you :)

Last movie seen?
Untraceable

Favourite band/artist?

Quite easily pleased. I don't have a favourite. However, I confess to loving the recent Take That concert.

Favourite food?
Asian

Favourite colour?
