1. Why do you support Spurs?
My Dad was born a mile or two from the ground, so it was inevitable I would become a Spurs fan. Like my Dad and brother we are as passionate about Spurs as life itself! Oh, and the other reason is, well, why wouldn’t I be a Spurs fan?!!

2. What was the most memorable match you attended?
2009/2010 season. I was stranded in London during the ash cloud crisis, which ‘forced me’ to obtain tickets for the Arsenal and Chelsea home matches. Two fantastic performances, a top goal by rising star Danny Rose off the volley against Arsenal, and well deserved victories against our arch enemies helping us on the way to secure fourth spot overall.

3. Who was your first favourite player?
Is it Paul Gascoigne, Gary Lineker or Glenn Hoddle? Truth is, Spurs have had so many top players it’s hard to decide. My favourite most memorable player recently is David Ginola. David encapsulates everything I love about Spurs. David plays an elegant attacking game, is full of skill and awareness, and charms the pants off anyone who meets him. Now there’s a Frenchman who really has the Va Va Voom!

4. Who is your current favourite player?
Benoit Assou Ekotto – consistently strong defending, has great awareness and passing ability, and is excellent going forward in tandem with Mr Bale.

5. Where are you from?
I was born and grew up in North West London, until I immigrated to Canada in July of 2009.

6. Prediction for the 2011/12 season?
Top six in the Premier League, though if we fail to strengthen our attacking force we may see a goal shortage as the season wears on. This may be our downfall. Semi finalists in the Europa League, if Harry seriously commits to the competition.
