Hollywood glamour in the Championship these days is usually only associated with Wrexham but another club got in on the act on Wednesday night. Eagle-eyed fans spotted Sean Bean in the stands at St Mary's for Southampton's clash with Sheffield United. The Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings and GoldenEye actor was there to support his beloved Blades, who went down 1-0. He's been seen at matches in the past but work commitments mean those can now be few and far between. Sheffield United's defeat on Wednesday night means they have now lost three matches on the spin including one on penalties against Mansfield Town in the FA Cup.
