Hey all, I am just curious as to whether the squad photo in the open training gallery on the OS is the official photo for the season? It looks it, but they normally include youngsters (and tommy forecast) which this one doesn't Also on the topic of the open training gallery, i noticed Forecast was back and handing out autographs (who would want his?) as well as Butterfields near bald head and bandage
What's the matter with Butterfield? Sizable plaster. Looked like the 1st team photo with 24 players, but would have expected Forecast to be on it.
I presume its a joke on the size of Butterfield's ears now he's had a skinhead. So someone taped them down for the photo
I also noticed that Lallana was holding his side in one photo. I've seen him do this on Player..likes to pretend to pull his hamstring or clutch side in pain when he sees camera. Someone should tell him about crying wolf!
Well, the lessser spotted Barnard has finally been seen in public. That's good. Ryan Dickson also in squad photo.
Always look for the hand on another players knee in the front row of team pics. None in evidence in ours.
Rickie does have the 'look the other way this could be awkward' look about him! Also as mentioned, it is weird that Forecast was not in the photo, made even more weird by the fact he was there on the day training/signing autographs!!
Adkins probably said, 'Step forward first team..not you Forecast.' if you don't get that, sorry it's an old joke.
Got to laugh at Adkins. Even when doing the team forecast he's got that '8 year old's excitement' about him. Couldn't be happier What a great bloke he is. Bet his house is like Happyland.
