Soccer AM gal gives us the lowdown
FanZone has been a man's world. Until now... The women are about to take over on Ladies' Day - and Soccer AM's Lisa Hebden is living proof that girls know about football too! Lisa is a Spurs supporter, who recently got to meet one of her idols on the show, Gazza. Here, she gives us a taste of what she'd be like in the FanZone booth.About you

Which team do you support? Tottenham Hotspur. How long have you supported them for? 20 years. What's your earliest memory of your team? When we beat West Ham 3-0, Gary Lineker hat-trick - great memory, more so for the fact my brother and dad support West Ham! Ha-ha! Favourite player(s): Past - Gary Lineker, Paul Gascoigne & David Ginola. Present - Robbie Keane, Ledley King & Jermain Defoe. Favourite manager: Terry Venables or Martin Jol.

Best moment as a football fan: Winning the Carling Cup in 2008. Any football superstitions? Nope... it's down to our 11 players on the pitch to work the magic. What are you...? ...most likely to say on FanZone: "OH MY GOD!" (According to the boys in the office I say it a lot.) ...least likely to say on FanZone: "*** ********* **** !"
Describe what your style of FanZone commentary would be: Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
Favourite song/chant: Come on you Spurs...
Most prized possession: My signed Ray Clemence photo... I've had it since I was eight!
What do you do when you're not in the FanZone commentary box? Socialise with friends and waste far too much time trying to perfect my Triple Jump on the Nintendo Wii.
Why should women be allowed to do FanZone? Purely for the amusement value... So, why not?
