Lee Martin is on loan from Manchester United until December 31st.
Martin, who is 21, started his career with Wimbledon before joining United's Academy and has made two first team appearances for Sir Alex Ferguson's men.
He recently figured in their pre-season tour of South Africa and scored the winning goal against Orlando Pirates in the Vodacom Challenge.
He's no stranger to going out on loan, having had temporary spells with Belgian side Royal Antwerp, Glasgow Rangers, Stoke, Plymouth and Sheffield United.
Martin's loan spell with United last season was disrupted by a knee injury but Blades boss Kevin Blackwell was reportedly keen to take him back to Bramall Lane this season.


Forest debut: August 13, 2008 v Morecambe (Carling Cup)

Question time


Any reasons for your current squad number?
Not at all. I arrived last week was given No 17 and that was it.

Who is your roommate? Has he any bad habits?
We were in single rooms at United

Who is the most annoying person to sit near on the team coach?
It's early days and I don't want to upset anyone just yet.

What other sports are you good at and terrible at?
I'm pretty average at most other sports. I'm not into golf and although the lads here are into table tennis at the moment I don't think I'll be troubling them.

Do you download any podcasts?
What are they?

Favourite TV programme
It's got to be Eastenders. Although I was born in Taunton my family are Londoners and they want back there soon after I came along.

If you could have free tickets to any event what would it be?
Lee Evans - I'm trying to get tickets at the moment. Can anyone help?

Worst haircut at the club?
I'll play this one safe and say mine. A lot of people seem to pick up on it.

Best practical joke witnessed in the dressing room?
Football is full of practical jokers. One of the lads at United put dye in another player's trainers. He had black and blue feet for the next couple of days.

Nickname at school?
I've never really had one.

Funniest player played with?
James Beattie when I was on loan at Sheffield United - he does some really daft things.

Toughest player played against?
Vedran Corluka, of Manchester City. I played against him for Sheffield United in the FA Cup last season and we had a great battle. He's a great athlete.

How do you normally spend your days off?
Relaxing - and I enjoy going out for a meal.

If you weren't a footballer what would you like to be?
It would have to be something to do with sport, preferably football.

What would be your dream day?
Playing in a World Cup final

Would you rather cook or clean?
Neither but cooking if I was pushed.

Which four people (living or dead) would you invite to a dinner party?
My mum will kill me but having my four best mates around.
