Fan Interview Saturday 9th December 2017

An international fan this week all the way from Australia so Ryan Schofield over to you,

AH: Tell us a little about yourself?

RS: I’m Ryan from Melbourne, in Australia. Originally from Lancashire in the UK and have been back to England many times. Following us around the country in the mid 90s and early 2000s. 

AH: When did you start supporting Spurs?

RS: 1990, My brother supported Liverpool, and I was also heading that way at a young age, ...until the Lineker/ Gascoigne show of Italia 90, and when I found out they both played for Tottenham the red kit went in the bin, and I’ve never looked back! 

AH: Who is your favourite player from every decade you’ve supported Spurs?

RS: 90s would have to be Lineker. I even bought the same brand of boots he wore and pretended to be him playing junior football. I wore number 10 and had my Quaser Gary Lineker Royale’s.

2000s Teddy Sheringham would have to sneak in as he returned after playing for Man U.  He was close after Lineker for the 90s. Met him at Ewood Park and even stopped his interview to shake my hand and sign his autograph. What a guy. 2010s... have to be the main man up top now eh? One of our own!!! 

AH: If you could ask one of those players a question what would it be and why? 

RS: Harry Kane, who do you think we will beat in the Champions League Final? ..Because I’m this form we’re gonna win it! 

AH: What is your favourite ever Spurs goal? 

RS: Easy, Gascoigne’s Free kick in the 91 semi final. Oh I say!!! Brilliant! That is school boys own stuff! Even Terry Venables couldn’t believe it. 

AH: What is your most cherished piece of Spurs merchandise? 

RS: My autographed book signed by the players as they boarded their coach at Ewood, we lost 2-1 but meeting them all made my day and was my first Spurs game. 95/96 season. 

AH: What is the worst piece of Spurs merchandise you’ve ever bought or been given? 

RS: Maybe my top with Rebrov on the back. Don’t really wear that one.

AH: What is your best  ever moment supporting Spurs?

RS: Meeting Teddy Sheringham was massive! And taking my son to see Tottenham at the MCG in Melbourne pre season. Proud moment.. 

AH: What is your worst ever moment supporting Spurs? 

RS: Arsenal winning the league at the Lane. 

AH: If you could go back in time and change one result what would it be?

RS: The game that saw Leicester City win the league. Should have been us. Ah well it was a fairytale for them I guess. 

Thanks to Ryan for taking part another Fan Interview next Saturday.
