Since 1977 when I moved into the Sunbury area.

Best ever LI game (Excluding 2002 cup final)

Powergen semi win over Queens and the Bris home game at the end of last season.

Favourite LI experience off pitch (Excluding 2002 cup final)

Edinburgh tour Jan 2003 and the Murrayfield Hotel on game night then Scruffy Murphy’s, Pats day game against Northampton, the mixture of supporters and atmosphere was superb

How did you start supporting LI?

Worked in the Sunbury area when I came out of the Army, a friend whom I played in the army with took me along, never looked back.

What are your non-rugby pastimes?

Walking, touring, sharing time with friends.

Any Irish connection?

Grandfather comes from Kerry, 40 members of the clan still live there.

Most likely to say?

The supporter’s club dinner dance, you must go this year, what a night.

Least likely to say?

The Craic was so quiet today………..
