Matt is speaking in Barnsley on Friday 13th August, at our cricket club dinner. Most of you will remember the famous Sky Sports clip where Brian Howard scored as Matt was live on screen If anyone fancies seeing him, tickets are £35 including a 2 course meal, Barnsley's own Dave Cooper as comedian, auction, raffle, fun and games.

Sounds like this would be a really good night. Might actually think about going. Maybe take the missus along to keep her sweet
Can anyone remember the goal he scored against us in the premier league season? It was in the league cup and he took a ball out of the air and smacked it in from what seemed like the halfway line.
Went to a Wath Cricket Club event a few years ago where he was the after dinner speaker. He was excellent, lots of funny stories.
Yes I was there in the ESL. There was nothing on,he noticed Watson was off his line (as he usually was); turned and chipped in. A lovely goal which Barnsley fans appreciated even though it meant we lost. A much under rated player.
He's taken a verbal beating in the Daily Mail today from - of all fellow gifted footballers - Carlton Palmer. It's a wonderful life.
Cheers for that mate! I'd forgotten about how the game went, other than that goal and that we lost. I remember the league game with them at Oakwell was very entertaining with quite a few goals, and we got our revenge. Was it 4-3?
