    What a top bloke, mature beyond his years. A feel good story, the likes of which we don't see anywhere near enough. It also goes to show Lee Johnson made the right decision when appointing him captain during the Summer.
    Well done, Alfie. My new favourite player.

    I've got a new favourite player. And a bit more pride in my club than I had 10 minutes ago. Well done Alfie, Lee and all at Barnsley FC - a very humbling article that suggest Barnsley FC are attempting to do things right. It's not just about winning football matches.

    Still think the name of the award should change though.

    Good read that, nice to hear about the work he's doing.

    This made me laugh:
    "It's funny when they're screaming at you in a South Yorkshire accent on a Saturday. You think: 'I don't know what you're saying but it doesn't sound good.'"

    Filling up, reading that :)

    Brilliant stuff Alfie, and all the rest of the players and staff who go out and make contact with fans like that.

    Reading stuff like this makes you wonder why so many complain about the club and suggest we need to sack the manager. I think something really good is building at Oakwell these days and I hope that it continues to grow. Wonderful read.

    This must be what Johnson was on about in his interview after Bradford match with saying something about Mawson

    Brilliant that. I'm glad that we're trying to sign good people. It'll benefit us on and off the pitch in the long run.
