B. Harry Agombar is an east-London performance artist known as Trvorsky.

Question 3. What does Harry Agombar do when he isn’t playing football?

A. When Harry Agombar isn’t playing football he pitches a small tent in his back garden and practises his ‘signature bake’ of a sachertorte, with a hint of hazelnut. He then dresses as “the bitch of the buttercream” Mary Berry, and judges himself very harshly indeed.

A. Harry Agombar hasn’t been able to play for Swindon this season as he got himself a Saturday job as a Deputy Retail Experience Facilitator in the Vodaphone shop in Guildford. However, Harry is so scared of his 17-year-old supervisor that hasn’t dared to ask for a weekend off yet.

B. Harry Agombar’s ambition while at Swindon Town is to win a bet about who plays the most games with ‘bad bitch’ botherer and local hack taunter Troy Archibald-Henville.
