Joe and his mate Olly were mascot's at Walsall, we had a meal before the game and as we were in the bar we saw the players arrive and go down on the pitch.I dashed down with the boys explained to Solly & Waggy who they were and asked for their shirts after the game.I told them we would be at the front behind the goal. When the players warmed up I reminded them as the two littlens were allowed on the pitch. Bearing in mind both were subs and didn't get on, at the end of the game when the Walsall fans came charging on and started goading the Charlton fans, both players ran down and despite on numerous occaasions being pushed back by the Walsall stewards gave them the swerve and delivered the shirts to the boys.I can't thank you two guys enough, you made the boys day. I hope us asking before the game for your shirts, made you realise how highly I regard the youngsters at the club who have made it to the first team. Just also a special mention to Nathan Ecclestone who was the first person we spoke to who took time to ask the boys their names and take a interest, also the only other player at the end to give his shirt away.

To be fair NLA, they were probably just cacking themselves in case you stuck a couple of right handers on them!

Seriously though, nice story. It's a relatively minor thing but they didn't have to do it and they did. Well played to both of them.
