The whole bit in the Sun says...

"even though he is football’s answer to David Dickinson, midfielder Carpenter does not have an antique cabinet in which to keep all his winners’ medals.

Carpenter, 31, said: “Just because I’m not your typical footballer, who doesn’t do anything apart from PlayStation, they reckon I’m a weirdo.

“I got into antiques through a few friends and although it’s only a hobby at the moment, I might look to take it up more seriously after I’ve finished playing.

“I have eclectic tastes and like to mix old and new, but I’m more interested in watches and collectibles rather than furniture so I haven’t got anything special to put my medals in.” "

So....got an eye for watches and collectibles, lives in a caravan, used to play for Gillingham....

I think we're building a picture here.
