MATT STARSTRUCK ON BLADES VISIT

-

SHEFFIELD UNITED arranged for keen fan Matt Fitzpatric­k to turn up at training to show off his

US Open trophy.

The visit was kept a secret from the United players, many of whom are keen golfers.

The modest

Sheffield lad passed the trophy round, posed for pictures and even did a question and answer session. Insiders said it was the 27-year-old Ryder

Cup man who looked the most starstruck.

United have arranged for Fitzpatric­k to return to Bramall Lane and parade his trophy in front of fans when the Blades play Coventry City in the Championsh­ip on Boxing Day.
