The MA and Hendon interviews were great, but i reckon this one could trump them both. I bet there's loads of stories and unknown tales from the Fry/Flashman era which could be told.

I'd love to know how he felt waking up on the morning of that Fisher game, and how were the emotions throughout the day?

Would also love to hear his recollection of that awful summer of 1993 when he and a few others stuck around not knowing if we were going to survive, and what was it like trying to get a team together with only weeks to spare before the opening game.

Also, as a fellow keeper, how did he get on with Mark Flashman?

Could things have been different or was it inevitable that the Stan Flashman bubble would eventually burst?

1. Did you feel any resentment towards Ray Clemence coming in as manager at the time he did?
(immediately after holding Chelsea to a 0-0 draw at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup. Not even enough time for Sumo to do a post-match interview).

2. Was Geoff Cooper always winding up his fellow players as much as supporters with light-hearted jokes? :D

3. Was that Manchester City match at Underhill in the League Cup your best ever performance given their Premier League quality? (Steve McMahon, Peter Beagrie, Niall Quinn among many other great players at the time). You were unbeatable that night!

I seem to remember you being made a 'life-president' or similar for the club as a thanks for everything you've done for us, but this seems to have faded from club history.

Whereas some of us think a statue should be built to you at the club!

Do you think that the club hasn't fully acknowledged in recent years everything you've done and everything you've given to Barnet FC over the years?

I believe Sumo is still coaching goalkeepers, we saw him on the pitch at HT putting one on the Palace keepers through his paces a few seasons back. Would he ever consider a return to Barnet in any capacity if the opportunity arose, or are the fond memories best left as they are?

Was the speed of attack noticeably any faster at the downhill end goal?

What was the best bit of banter he ever experienced with opposing fans standing behind the goal?
