When Harper missed out on a Soccer AM’s ‘3rd eye’!


Harps – missed out on a Soccer AM’s ‘3rd eye’

It’s a shame that there are no camera’s covering the dugouts at Ewood Park – it’s a shame because Steve Harper would have been appearing on Soccer AM’s ‘third eye’. We were seating above the actual dugouts during the Blackburn Newcastle 1-1 draw when the ball came over towards us. Harps went up to catch it, lent forward and grabbed the ball. In doing so his shinpads got caught in the seats in front of us. In what seemed to be slow motion, he ended up falling forward then rolling over on the floor between the rows of seats. After what seemed to be five minutes he then re-appeared – holding the ball saying…”well, I never dropped it!”
