FOOTBALLING CV
PERSONAL DETAILS
Date of Birth: 19th June 1980
Religion: Crystal Palace, Scotland AND England.
Height: 5ft 7in
Weight: 10st 7lbs
QUALIFICATIONS
Preferred Playing Position: Centre Midfield
Playing Strengths: Hard working, "never say die" attitude.
Playing Weaknesses: Too few goals scored considering my position in centre midfield. Why is the "Weaknesses" box bigger than the "Strengths" box? [It's all down to our extremely complex and specially patented player-sensitive sizing algorithm, James. Ed]
EXPERIENCE
Date Joined Logica: 2nd September 2002
Logica FC Debut: 2nd September 2002: Pre-season friendly -
Sun 0-3 Logica. The reporter of the day noted: "As a holding midfielder [Buck] demonstrated astute positional sense, a dogged determination to chase opponents down, and the much under-rated ability to play a simple and early pass to feet."
Previous Teams: Ellon Colts, Petersfield Town Juniors, Alton College, Cripps Hall 2nd and 3rd Teams.
Greatest Footballing Moment: Crystal Palace getting promoted via the playoffs this year (2004) after being 4th from bottom in December!!
Worst Footballing Moment: Hearing that Logica had lost 4-2 on the last day of 2003-2004 season, after being 2-0 up with 10 mins left, when all we needed was a draw to definitely stay up. However, it all worked out ok as we made it anyway!
INTEREST
Model Pro (Models His Game on You): Any players who still maintain a degree of honesty and fairness when they play as I try to do - none of this diving or feigning injuries (I am talking about you Rivaldo!!!) - a rare thing these days and so I am unable to find a name for this box. :-(
Favourite All-Time Player: Diego Maradonna, Zinedine Zidane, George Best, Steven Gerrard, Patrick Viera, Georgi Kinkladze, Steve McManaman, David Batty, David Beckham, Alan Shearer, Wayne Rooney, Dougie Freedman and Andy Johnson - There is a reason for every one of these appearing in my footballing favourites and if you could take the best characteristics from all of these players, you would have one fine specimen of footballing talent!
Pre-Match Superstition: When putting on and taking off my teams shirt, I always kiss the badge.
Interesting Trivia: I once had trials for Bournemouth AFC and despite scoring in every game, they didn't sign me - their loss which enabled me to give my services to Logica.
