Did anyone who was upstairs at Brentford see Barney, Oxo, Lee Holmes and Tommy Forecast all sitting with the Saints fans? It may well have been because there was no room elsewhere but they spent a lot of time posing for photos with all those who asked and signing autographs. They had time for everyone and Barney didn't punch anyone, a nice touch and it made a great day out even better.
A bit like the good old days when the players would pop in for a pint with the fans before the game - not actually joking!
A nice touch that Barney didn't punch anyone...minimum requirement I would have thought . Bet meeting the players made some fans day.
I didn't notice to be honest, they were surrounded by adoring fans most of the time. They were sitting at the front and Oxo went up and down the steps easily enough. And he got out of his seat quite readily whenever he was asked for a photo.
All of which makes me feel that he will still be here next season. The players must be enjoying the way we have charged forward recently and at times with several of our names missing.
On BBC site it says that Chambo and Schneiderlin both travelled with the squad and could possible be back for the Walsall game. (Or phrases along those lines anyway) I doubt either will be risked again this season
NA will risk no one. It's not necessary. Better if they recover fully and have a good pre-Championship season. That sounded good didn't it. If he doesn't use any 'impact players' he could bring them on at the end to enjoy the party.
