I know someone really well who he was close to at school and can concur that he's a brilliant lad. Less said about Millie Savage though. He wouldn't be daft enough to waste his own cash on us, but could be the face of a rich consortium.
Unlike one or two I could mention. (Tbf the vast majority have shown their appreciation over the many yrs.) He (JS) won our Young player of the year award and not only turned up to recieve it. But sent a thank you card a few days later. Still have it int house.
He stood outside Oakwell when the hearse drove past with my Dad in as we went to Ardsley crem. He was only a young lad then.
He is a top lad Paul . Came to watch youngest play at Penistone Church ,when I bumped into him. He was at Everton at the time. Made a big fuss ,cos not seen him for a while. In Fact he sorted some tickets for us for Man City v Liverpool early kick off. He was a bit miffed we shot off early to watch Preston v Barnsley 3 pm kick off. Funny that day cos Hammill sorted me some tickets for BFC game. So we got labelled free loaders .com after a full day watching 2 games for free.
