We used to go to school early in the morning, an hour earlier, so we could play football on the yard if it was us or Tracy would play netball or other things.
I just remember we got out of the car together that way.
I do.
But I know Tracey used to go and play netball and rounders, and we'd go off and play football.
And every single day, there was a sport to play.
And we spent a lot of time at the rounders and netball with my mum.
We used to love watching mum play netball and rounders.
It was amazing.
So, from that point of view, my mum played in a team at rounders that won the league 19 years on the bounce, believe it or not.
Alton Road ladies.
And...
She was the real determined sports person in the family.
My dad loved sport, loved football, loved cricket.
And we were immersed in it every single day.
And to be fair, that's why you obviously take a lot from your parents.
They set the standards for us in terms of what we liked and what our hobbies were.
To be honest with you, Jeff, if you notice, I never call you Shrevesy.
I hate nicknames, so I always call people by the first name and the full name.
So people call Tracy Trey and Trace.
I always Tracy and Philip and Jeff.
