In our exclusive return to 20 questions, broomesport.com presents quite simply Dimitrios Constantine Asimacopoulos, the biggest name in broome soccer.

What sports do you play in broome?
Soccer and swimming.

Why play sport in broome?
Soccer is my passion and is the world game and brings people together from all parts of the world and in those moments of bliss there is peace in the world and we forget about what race and religion we are and we just play jogo bonito.

You’re known globally as the biggest name in broome soccer have you ever played with or against anyone with a bigger name?
Yes, Theodorokopoulos, but I also went to school with a Coutsidimitropoulos.

Strangely you have never represented Broome. Why is this?
Because the president always organises games when I’m unavailable. It’s a conspiracy.

It’s no secret Glory are hopeless. How long until you get called up?
I have to be realistic. I’m passed my used by date

How many teams in broome could beat Glory?
I think Racing G might give them a go. NDFC would be too good for them, but we don’t want to shame them.

Is it true China founded democracy?
Don’t believe everything you hear or read.

NDFC were tipped as the team to beat last season but didn’t deliver, but this year finished undefeated champions what was the main reason for the turnaround in form.
There were some players that went through the season injury free and our old heads combined really well with the youth.

Who was the toughest side you played?
I’d have to say that team owned by that dodgy bloke from the Roey, Hagan’s Heroes.

Who would you most like to see in an NDFC shirt?
Lionel Messi.

Can you get good feta in Broome?
Impossible. I have to get it sent up from Melbourne.

Racing Guantanamo CEO Rayban Platinum has come under increasing pressure this season due to poor results. It’s widely known he needs a big name signing and there are rumours he’s illegally approached you about a move. Is there any truth to this?
It’s a lie. A good damn lie.

Could you see yourself at another B liga club?
If the amount of souvalaki was right I’d consider it.

Jimmy A with Friend
Jimmy Dancing

The A league is expanding and they seem to find a need to adopt ridiculous Americanised nicknames like Glory and Phoenix. If the B Liga expanded what should be the name of the new team?
What about the Roebuck Phantoms.

Now that the season is over what will you be putting more time into - your Save the Dinosaur foundation or your modeling career?
I’d have to say save the dinosaur foundation.

How is it going at the moment?
Look I think someone is laundering the money. We have nothing in the kitty at the moment somebody has infiltrated us.

Soccer has enjoyed a renaissance since the world cup and is now called football to fit in with the rest of the world, with this being the case do you think the socceroos should be called the footballeroos?
I just think Australia should stop giving their national teams in all sports ridiculous names.

You are the two time winless captain of the Australian side that played against Ireland in the St Patrick’s Day Challenge Shield Trophy. What went wrong this year?
I have to correct you there. I’m the one time captain. Nobody likes a sore loser, but there were a lot of cheats out there that day.

Who do you think would have been the best footballer out of Socrates, Aristotle, Plato, and Archimedes?
Socrates because he looked cute in those little shorts in the 80’s.

I’m talking about the original Socrates not the Brazilian.
Right then probably Archimedes - being a mathematician he would be able to mastermind great movement. The other blokes would just stand around talking and not do anything.

If you weren’t playing soccerfootball in Broome what would you be doing?
Working on my tan.
