[Sussex on Leith]

Born at half time of a 1-1 draw at Hull on 4 February 1978. I'm told that we were one down when I was born and equalised when I was a few minutes old.

My sister was born on a Saturday afternoon in the football season as well. My Dad assures me he was at the hospital rather than the game on both occasions, but I have my doubts.
