Rapid Fire: Natalie Crinean
Published by Gillingham Ladies Media on September 16, 2009
In the first in a series of Q&A interviews from our matchday programmes, Kent Sports News pose their Rapid Fire questions to Gills Ladies striker Natalie Crinean.
What would your team mates say are your best qualities?
This is a rubbish question! I am quite bubbly and my mood doesn’t really affect the team because football is football and I try and enjoy it as much as I can.
If you had to get a lift to training who would you least like to drive you in and why?
Blimey you have to think about these questions! I have to say Kelly (Herett) simply because she lives in Enfield, and I don’t fancy trekking to Enfield to come back here again.
Who has the worst sense of direction at the club?
That would be me, I live about ten minutes away from training and it took me 25 minutes to get here for training, being serious I needed a Tom Tom to get ten miles away from my house.
Would you rather spend a day with Pele or Pamela Anderson and why?
Can I have half a day with one and half a day with the other? I would spend half a day with Pele because he is a legend and Pamela Anderson to talk life experiences.
What is the funniest practical joke that has been played on you?
This is not just on me and this is a joke that all the girls think is really funny! Ash Hincks me and Dan Farmer got tricked. They pretended they were George from krbs and they sent us a text message. It said as you are Gills new superstar signing would you be able to come to an autograph signing session? They gave us dates and everything, and I am sorry Dan I have to expose you, she was actually going to take the day off work to go.
What games console do you have at home and are you any good?
I have an Xbox at home, I am alright at Fifa but I love Rock band and playing the drums and a little of guitar hero and anything like that.
What do you think you would be if you weren’t a footballer?
I would like to play basketball, I used to play and I really enjoyed it but in the end it clashed with football and I decided that football was the best path to go down. I love basketball I think it is a really good game.
When you are driving what annoys you about other drivers?
Not indicating is a big one for me, although I don’t do it all the time myself. I hate people not saying thank you it is the worst thing in the world, it makes my blood boil. If I am in a car and one of my friends doesn’t say thank you, I will wind the window down and say thank you for them.
Have you ever said do you know who I am to get a table at a restaurant?
I am not old enough for that yet, but I am sure one day I will, even if it is just for the laughs.
How often do you cook at home if at all?
Never! My mum does all the cooking but I do like to make the effort to cook. I will quite happily cook breakfast and stuff for my brothers and my sisters but cooking wise if my mum doesn’t do it then it don’t get done, simple as.

Hi Max,Met you at the Jozi Geek dnnier love your work . Research indicates that when the jury comes in guilty on a murder rap on a defendant, the more beautiful (man or woman) they are, the lesser the sentence handed down by the judge. And, if you look like a criminal , you’ll the judge will throw the book at you.Beauty taps into selection theory. As a species we want to survive and to increase the odds of survival, we need to mate with the dominant in the species. The more beautiful one appears, the more we think they are virile, intelligent and healthy.Check out the movie Species the alien went for the healthiest looking men to father her child. Of course, it all went south for the men when she discovered that there was something genetically wrong with them.
