First and Last - Mark Noble

Mark Noble is next to be quizzed about his firsts and lasts
As West Ham United conclude the final season at the Boleyn Ground, we’ve asked the players for some memorable firsts and lasts from their careers and lives. Tonight, Mark Noble goes under the spotlight…
 
FIRSTS

Who would be the first player you would call up for a pub quiz at your local?

Quite surprisingly Andy Carroll knows a lot but I don't think I would call him up because he would probably annoy me! I would probably go for Joey O'Brien. He thinks he knows more than he does but he does know quite a lot!

Who would be the first player you would vote off the X-Factor?

I don't hear a lot of people sing but I would have to go for Adrian. He sings all the Spanish songs and they are terrible!

What was the first car you owned?

The first car I had was a Golf. I bought it before I passed my test and I failed my first test so it was just sat on my driveway. It was terrible as it was like having a piece of chocolate that you are not allowed to eat! I used to go outside and just sit in the car and turn the lights on. I thought it was a big deal. I passed the second time and had the car for years. Up until now it was my favourite car.

What is the first CD you bought?

I think it was Billie Piper. I had a bit of a crush on her when I was a kid for some mad reason.

Can you remember your first goal in professional football for West Ham?
It was against Brighton in the FA Cup. Carlos Tevez chested the ball down for me and I volleyed it into the bottom of the goal.
LASTS

What was the last sporting event you paid to watch?
It was the Anthony Joshua fight at the O2 Arena when he beat Charles Martin to become the new IBF heavyweight champion. It was a great night.

What was the last concert you went to?
Adele at the O2. She was phenomenal and I love her. I liked her that much that I went to see her twice in concert.

Which of your team-mates is the last you would like to be stuck in a lift with?
I will go for Emmanuel Emenike. You never know if he is being serious or not and he does say a lot of things which I just don’t believe!

What was the last video you looked at on YouTube?
 
It was some guy catching a shark in Florida and I was trying to get some tips. It was massive and I think it was a bull shark.

What was the last film you saw at the cinema?

I took the kids to see Jurassic Park in 3D. It was actually quite good. I had the glasses on and the kids loved it.
