Oatway to sacrifice Anfield place

Havant & Waterlooville player-coach Charlie Oatway will sacrifice his place in the team to give the Hawks' youngsters a day in the spotlight.
The 34-year-old midfielder has played a key part in the Hawks' FA Cup run which culminates in their fourth-round tie against Liverpool on Saturday.

"It will be fantastic for those boys and I'll get my pat on the back by seeing their smiles," Oatway said.

He added: "I've already been fortunate to play in front of big crowds."

wonder if he'll be back with us one day as manager, i would expect somebody like torquay will nab him soon - i think he's still pretty legendary down there, was always great seeing him get his man of the match awards whenever we played plymouth.

A true footballer who wants the youngsters to have a chance against such as "big team".

Well done Charlie

Charlie is still one of my heroes. He's was a teriffic servant to the club and a great bloke as well. I've been reading his FA cup column every day in the Sun this week. He is a legend!
