An Interview with a Rival... Burton Albion

Ahead of today’s clash away at the Pirelli Stadium, Keith Ingham spoke to Burton Fan James T Speedie.

How long have you supported Burton Albion?

I have supported the brewers since the age of 7

What’s your favourite moment or era as a Burton Albion fan?

My favourite moment as a brewer was when we got promoted into the championship it was unbelievable.

Tell us about a player that you were proud to have on the back of a shirt, or do you not wear a ‘player’s’ shirt?

The player I have always liked was Nasser el Khayati

What’s your most memorable moment playing against Leeds? Kind of guess I know the answer for this one.

My favourite moment was beating the big team Leeds because we are such a small team and to beat a big team like Leeds was unreally

Who or what position do you need to strengthen in the transfer market?

A good striker if possible

What’s your realistic aim for the season? Is staying up enough?

For the size of the club staying up again would be amazing.

Who are your two to go up automatically and one from the playoffs?

Wolves and Cardiff
Sheffield united

Three teams in danger of dropping into League One this season?

Bolton Birmingham Barnsley

Who’s your danger man and your thoughts on how Luke Murphy has performed so far this season? the midfielder just didn’t perform constantly for Leeds, although a couple of his goals were pretty special whilst wearing the white.

Our danger man is Lloyd dyer he is really quick and is a threat I think Luke Murphy has fitted in really well and suited our style of play so overall a good addition.

Can you tell us about a rising star in the youth ranks?

The rising star has to be joe sbrra he is a really good talent and I can see prem clubs wanting him

Prediction and scorers for the game?

I predict the score to be 2-1 to burton the scorers will be Akins and sordell and sàiz for Leeds.

We’d like to that Jamie for taking the time to answer our questions and wish him the best of luck for the season.
