YBR's return to Fulham

BBC America's Soccer Show today featured a warm and fuzzy piece on YBR returning to Fulham. If folks in the US missed today's airing, it repeats tomorrow at 8am. The piece is the last 5min of the show. Not sure if it will be featured on any other preview packages around the world, but worth keeping an eye out just in case.

Part of it was obviously filmed today as they showed Bobby recreating the walk out to the center of the pitch as he did the day he was fired as Fulham manager. There are some wonderful reminiscences from him inside the clubhouse as he looks at a photos from his playing days, particularly how his teammate's greyhound always got treatment ahead of the players because the dog had to race in the 730 at the racecourse. The dog would bite people, so the player had to tie it's muzzle up with laces, and he'd do up a bow on the dog's snout. Ahhh, them were the days. ;-)
