Who’s the biggest joker in the teams you play for?

For Donegal it has to our physio Colm O’Neill; always taking the hand. And for Burt Niall “Wee Jude” Campbell and Ronan “Bubbles” McDermott. They’re always laughing at something or someone.

Which team mate has the best looking other half?

I better say nothing here, lol.

Who is the worst trainer?

For Donegal Kevy Campbell. Never seen a man with more injuries. Colm O’Neill (physio) is sick looking at him. For Burt Conor McLaughlin. There always a teachers’ meeting on the nights we have training, lol.

For Donegal Ciaran Masterson and Sean McVeigh, always fixing the hair. For Burt Conor Harkin and Cricky McDermott always have their head stuck in the mirror, lol.

Best: Stephen Gillespie. Worst: Marty McGrath; never stops complaining about how much work he does, lol.

Who’s the best/worst person to sit beside on the team bus?

Best: Ronan “Bubbles” McDermott. Worst is between Anthony Coyle, our kit man, (the smell of Redbull and his farts would make you sick) and Cricky Mc Dermott who’s always going on about all the women he’s got on the go and showing me all his Tinder matches.

Who has the best and who has the worst diet on the team, and what does it include?

Worst is probaly myself. Best is Sean McVeigh. He turned vegan now so just fruit and veg for that man.
