Arbroath FC Player Profile

Marc Peat


Tell us about your first………………

Car? A Fiat Brava. I had it for one day then the engine blew up.

Holiday? Santa Ponsa 1999. I thought I had landed in Dublin, there were so many Irish people there.

Film you went to see at the Cinema? Batman with Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson

Pair of Football Boots? My Dad bought me a pair of Adidas. I took the studs out and tried to wear then as trainers.

Time at the pub? I went to my local when I was 15 and got thrown out 10 minutes later for having no ID.

Game you went to watch? Rangers v Hibs at Ibrox. Rangers won 3-0

Game you played in?
Clyde Valley v Mill Utd under 11’s. We won 1-0, I think it was the last time I kept a clean sheet!

Game for Arbroath? Beat Berwick 1-0. Andy Dow scored a free kick and I got Man Of the Match.

When was the last time you were really angry? When Willie Martin managed to score his first goal of the season in training past me last Wednesday night.

When was the last time you cried? With laughter in the recent game at Links Park, when Ian Dobbins tried to shoot, missed the ball and almost lost his left leg at the same time.

Who would you like to play you in a movie? Colin Farrell, he always has stubble, and he likes a pint almost as much as me.

What is your worst habit? Conceding goals

And your most redeeming feature?
My six pack,- of Stella I take home with me after a game on a Saturday.

What is your favourite flavour of crisps? Salt and vinegar

What is the best thing about being a professional footballer? My team mates and the banter in the dressing room.

And the worst? Everytime you lose.
