| Most memorable game: |
It's probably my first ever game, which was for Sedgefield
against Peterlee Panthers because it was the day Princess Diana died.
Other than that probably the game against ProJoy in the Nationals when I
checked someone and left him lying on the floor in a heap! |
| Game best forgotten: |
I dunno really, don't think I've had one so far
|
| Favourite opposition? Why: |
It used to be Lochside coz they were always fun games, but
now it's Hartlepool at senior coz it's a laugh playing against them, &
Bad Girlz coz it's great to beat them when they think so highly of
themselves! oh & Flintstone Flyers for Vets coz they're easy to wind up
|
| Least favourite opposition: |
Rolling Rocks at Vets coz they get all the decisions just coz
they're 'Nigel's team'. Norton at senior coz I don't get on much against
them.

Hartlepool |
| Main complaint about hockey: |
The refereeing. It's too inconsistent and people associated
with one club shouldn't be allowed to ref those games.

Fully qualified INDEPENDENT referee's for all leagues.

Pretty much anything Leanne said in America! (Ask her about it!)
