TWELVE-YEAR-OLD Tommy Greenwood oversaw a disappointing Oxford United defeat in his role as chairman for the day.
The Wheatley Park School pupil met the players and entertained Southend United dignitaries before watching the U’s lose 3-2.
His dad John, who won the prize at an auction in aid of Charlbury-based videogaming charity SpecialEffects, said: “He had a day that will never be forgotten; everyone at the club made him feel so welcome.
“The only disappointment was not leaving with three points but what a game to watch.”
