THIS season we're bringing you not one but TWO features from the Albion dressing room.

As well as 'Welcome to my World', which will delve into what Tony Mowbray's troops get up to off the pitch every Tuesday, you can read our brand new football feature 'Past, Present and Future' every Thursday.

We continue this week with head of sports science Dan Harris.

PAST

Q1. What age were you when you were given your first football?

DH: I was very young, probably about two or three years old. It was most likely a present.

Q2. Who first kicked a ball around with you?

DH: My dad - in the garden, in the street...everywhere!

Q3. Did you play in your school football team and if so from what age and what position?

DH: I played right the way through school at right-midfield.

Q4. What's your earliest memory?

DH: I think it was milking goats on my grandma's small holding when I was about four or five.

Q5. Did you ever collect football stickers/cards when you were a child, and if so did you ever complete an album?

DH: I collected Panini football stickers and once sent off for the last 40 stickers even though I had to pay four quid! At least I completed it. I might still have the album now!

PRESENT

Q6. Do you have any tattoos? If so, what are they of?

DH: No, I don't have any. I don't think I ever will either.

Q7. What is your favourite stadium other than The Hawthorns?

DH: I used to like The Dell - Southampton's old ground before they moved. It was a really tight stadium with an intimidating atmosphere. I liked sitting behind the goal.

Q8. Who is your favourite football pundit?

DH: Gavin Peacock, before he retired. He was quite decent. He talked a lot sense and didn't get too emotional.

Q9. Who is the biggest influence on your career/life?

DH: My parents. They have always been very supportive. They gave me the reins to go off and do whatever I wanted to do and supported me all the way.

Q10. Have you ever played as an Albion player on any football computer game?

DH: No, I don't think I have. I'm not really a computer game man.

FUTURE

Q11. Who do you think will win the 2010 World Cup?

DH: I'd like to think it will be England, but I've got a feeling it might be Spain. They are a decent team with some top class players.

Q12. If you could choose one player in World football to come to Albion, who would it be?

DH: Didier Drogba. He is a top striker.

Q13. If you could win either the Premier League or the Champions League with Albion, which would you choose?

DH: The Premier League every day of the week. I'm proud to be English and I think this is the toughest division. The fact the teams play at least 38 games over a season is a big challenge. If a team can be consistent over that many games, they deserve to lift the trophy.

Q14. Give one holiday destination that you have not yet been to but would like to visit in the future?

DH: I would like to go somewhere really random and maybe climb a mountain in Costa Rica or jump down a waterfall in Peru. Something different and exciting. I'm not one for lying about on the beach.

Q15. When you eventually retire what would you like to do?

DH: I enjoy working with kids, so I think my wife and I may end up fostering and adopting hundreds of kids and have a big house in the country somewhere! I like to think I'm a decent role model for young kids so would enjoy that type of role.
