Ah, that's not quite true. After we left Craven Cottage, for the first season at Crystal Palace he, like the rest of us, was just a spectator. For the first season at Chiswick, up until the hiatus in March he helped by marking out the pitch etc. After that , certainly up to the end of the first season back at Crystal Palace he just reverted to spectating again.
