A FOOTBALL-MAD youngster got to meet his heroes when he was a mascot for Southampton's FA Cup clash with Manchester united.

Will Jones, eight, from Funtington, and dad Trevor are Southampton season-ticket holders.

The pupil of Portsmouth Grammar School – where Saints starlet Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain also went – plays football and rugby for his school and turns out for Bognor Regis Youth FC and is in the Chichester under-rights Portsmouth FC academy.

He was thrilled to meet Southampton stars including Oxlade-Chamberlain before the match, which his team lost 2-1.
