Scott Banks’ name has cropped up a lot around the club – that’s to be expected with a new signing. However, every mention of the 18-year-old is followed by a remark on what a friendly and happy guy the new recruit is.
Banks was no different during our interview in the Training Ground canteen for the Sheffield United matchday. He was accommodating, too, returning for our chat after dropping off a teammate at the train station. Good gesture following good gesture.
“It’s strange for me to say but I’m not missing home as much as I thought,” Banks begins, and it’s important to note the smile on his face doesn’t wane for one second throughout our discussion.
