Nickname Cheesy
Date Of Birth 7/1/71 ('Mother must have been a bingo caller')

Big Team Hibs
Wee Team Hibs ('Or is that dignifying Scumbo jibes?')
Favourite Player Ever Franck Sauzée ('Though my performances are more of the crude Erich Schaedler, Callum Milne or Matty Jack variety')
Position No nonsense centre half or midfield enforcer
Distinguishing Features Mid-match patter ('That's it Gary, very well done, make him run round you'), endless shot blocking
Lookalike

Sir David Of Weir, Ross from 'Friends', Mr Bean or - when the guard has been left off the clippers - Albie Kinsella from 'Cracker' or Andrei Chikatilo (the Rostov Ripper)

Battlecry Nothing so far
Claim To Fame

Once managed to ‘release’ the best part of 6 pints onto the central reservation of the M8 en route to Ibrox and still catch up with the car he was travelling in ('To be fair, it was a Boxing Day fixture with heavy tailbacks, so I didn’t have to be Linford Christie!')

Road To The Real An old friend of Bill Ryan - they went to Craigmount together, were each other's Best Man and watched Hibs together
