Ian Wright's new serious role really showed them lot at the BBC...
Barnsley's Toby the Tyke
Another exciting installment I see...
Indeed it is, this week we say hello to Toby.
Do I have to? I try not to make a habit of talking to lonely blokes in furry suits.
Just this time then.
OK. Hi Toby. And what's he then? A mole?A mole? Don't be silly, he's clearly a tyke.
Right. And what the ruddy hell is one of those?It's a dog. And a cocky one at that.
How come? Does he go round doing his business on the pitch?Not quite. But he does go in goal during the half time penalty shoot out. And it's very funny to boot.
Sounds a right hoot yeah...It is. And he used to run from halfway line towards the away end, put ball in the net and
celebrate in front of the away fans.
Why used to?Because the police stopped him from doing so.
Now your talking, a bit of bother! Any more like this?Well, yes, actually. He's been known to stop the Wolves mascot Wolfy in his tracks.
Wolfy being the renowned mascot troublemaker?
Yeah, but Toby soon took him down a peg.
Well played that man.Do you mean that?
Not really no.
