Author: Unknown - Fri 13 Jan 06Website roving reporter Lauren Hall met up this week with Celtic new boy Jody Banim, and found him looking forward to a sooner than expected return from injury.
Q: What's the best thing about being at Stalybridge?A: "Just the set-up and everything, the training has been superb since I arrived compared to training with Droylsden. Stalybridge is the best, the training, the lads, the management team has been superb since I came. Dave Pover's been brilliant while I've been injured as well".
Q: And the worst?A: "The lads, the Manager, the training!!! No, nothing really, I've just enjoyed it since I came. It's been a breath of fresh air. It all went a bit stale towards the end at Droylsden so it was just what I needed coming here".
Q: How are you getting on with your injury?A: "Great thanks. I'm seeing the Specialist tomorrow and hoping for the all-clear to at least sit on the bench on Saturday. Fingers crossed!".
Q: Which team would you love to play for if you weren't at Celtic?A: "It has got to be Manchester United".
Q: Who has the worst fashion sense in the dressing room?A: "It's got to be Bucko. Thinks he's a sharp dresser, but I don't!".
Q: Who is your inspiration?A: "That has to be my mum. She's the one who ferried me around when I was a kid".
Q: Who is the best player you've played alongside?A: "Ian Bishop. Superb, great feet, great passing, great vision".
Q: Who do you travel to games with?A: "I mostly travel on my own but sometimes come in with Pricey and Princey. They're almost always late though and getting fined for it so it's cheaper for me to drive myself!".
Q: Who takes the longest in the shower?A: "Probably Lee Ellington. It's all those different lotions he uses!".
Q: What's the most expensive thing you've ever bought?A: "Probably my house".
Q: What's the best goal you've ever scored?A: "One I got for Shrewsbury. It was from about 35 yards and on Sky actually, probably that one."
Q: Do you support a League team?A: "Manchester United. I'm a big Red".
Q: Who is the funniest in the dressing room?A: "I would say Bucko. He's funny looking anyway..".
Q: Tea or coffee?A: "Neither".
Q: Salad or chips?A: "I'm going to get slaughtered whatever I say, so I'll say salad".
Q: Stalybridge or Droylsden?A: "It's got to be Stalybridge hasn't it!".
So who's next Lauren???
