Took me till 10 to get a team

wasn't forced on me

I used ask from about 6 years old if I could go to watch York, and my folks would be like "you don't want to go, believe me"

Then everyone at school always supported someone and pretended to be players. Then I saw us on the telly box and decided to have a team too

I would have been York if someone had been bothered to take me :s
