    Born in Kilmarnock. Moved to Dundee area when I was 5. Lived in Nottingham for the last 14 years.

    Wasn't particularly interested in football until one day in 1987 (primary 6 for me, I think) when I arrived at school to find loads of guys in their United trackys, scarves, flags, etc chanting and signing. Turns out United had beaten Barcelona at Tannadice the previous evening. Totally didn't understand it at the time but it was enough to get me hooked as an arab.

    First game was the following season v Coleraine.
