With Stanley away to Barnet and a 2-0 defeat I took Briteny over to Blackpool for the day then onto Fleetwood to watch her footballing hero Bobby Grant play against Scunthorpe Town. Bobby always finds time to have 5 minutes with her after the game and to ask how she is etc...He was very dissapointed yesterday at being subbed as soon as Scunthorpe had pulled a goal back from being 2-0 down...some sort of tackical change that did not pay off as Scunthorpe scored again within a couple of minutes to earn a 2-2 draw and a point for each club, New Fleetwood manager Uwe Rossler wasn't impressed.
Anyway I added 8 squad players to the back of the programme Bobby Grant, Aaron Amadi-Holloway, Ricardo Kip, Joe Davis, Keepers Chris Neal and Alex Cairns, Ashley Hunter and Nick Haughtgon. I also got Assistant head coach Rob Kelly, Came over from Blackburn Rovers last week to also sign. Former Fleetwod manager and now Scunthorpe's manager Graham Alexander was happy to sign a pic in the programme for me as did New Fleetwood boss Uwe Rosler, Not a bad day really as I don't usually bother graphing at away games..
Below is Bobby Grant, Squad No 11 for this season.
Bobby said he would have time for us after the game and he had, 10 out of 10 for this footballer. Happy days, Always worth the trip over.
