　While I was at school, I 　1 　train with Spurs on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I also　　 　2 　for English schoolboys, so I suppose I was　　 　3 　a school boy star.

　I didn't really get into 　4 　at school. I had my two elder brothers there for　　 　5 　of the time that I was there, so my stay at the school wasn't that hard.　　 　6 　other children had a really hard time.

I'm told that only one in 1000 makes it in　　 　14 　, so you have only a very slim chance. But I decided to go for it and looking back it was the　　 　15 　thing to do.

　I didn't support Spurs 　16 　a boy. I supported QPR, my local team. But to play for Spurs,　　 　17 　had just won the FA Cup, was interesting to me. There were so many　　 　18 　, and of course Bill Nicholson was the　　 　19 　then—a great manager.
