    How do you explain it to a lad like that? Alfie seems to have gone more than the extra mile in his community work and now he is off to South Wales.

    A lot of people, not just Oakwell regulars, are going to miss him.

    He will be missed but it was expected, he had told him he wanted a move back down south so nobody will be surprised. Wish him well.

    It's very difficult, but his parents must have known the career patterns of footballers.

    Is this true about telling him he wanted a move back down South?

    Little Alfie probably has more sense than the likes of Young Nudger and co.

    Back down south??? Swansea is further away from London than Barnsley . Also I don't get this closer to home crap . So if Barcelona had come in for him he'd have said ...no thanks I'd rather play for QPR .
