Matt, 24 and a Newcastle United fan, said: "I was at the Brighton School of Excellence for four years until I was 14 but left because I got cheesed off with losing regularly.

"I then had a few weeks on trial at Portsmouth but didn't get on there and really wish I hadn't left Brighton. I remember playing against Joe Cole and he was brilliant. We lost about 10-0 and he scored four."

Younger brother Mike, 22 and a West Ham fan, had trials with Newcastle, Brighton and Portsmouth. He said: "I was offered to go to Newcastle but it was a seven-hour drive every weekend so I couldn't really do it."
