    I saw two things of interest.

    What looked like a player with a mobile phone stuck to his ear outside Reception.
    I didn't recognise who it was, but it definitely wasn't Harvey Barnes as I've just seen a photo of him

    The other was a portly man of foreign origin wearing a very pale light blue jacket and sporting sunglasses !
    He looked like one of the Baddies out of the James Bond films!
    That's what made me notice him.
    Sunglasses, here in Barnsley on a day like today!
    He too had a mobile phone stuck to his ear.

    By the time I'd bought my Sheffield Utd ticket and resolved to take a photo, they'd both gone !

    Could've been Riordan but there was no sign of the Helicopter Pilot so I think we can rule that one out !

    I'd have thought there might be a player safety issue if they have phones glued to their ears.
    Might have been blutack of course.
    Blood on shirts is a no-no.

    I thought that must be Mad Doug's agent !
    Mamadou has just translated as Mad Doug !

    Let's hope it's someone trying to buy the club and not an agent.
