LEWIS Allen had a nice surprise when he turned up to watch FC United play AFC Wimbledon at the weekend - he was made mascot for the day.
The 10-year-old Royton youngster was rewarded for helping dad Keving and other FC volunteers work on the Gigg Lane pitch last season to ensure landlords Bury would be able to play on it three days later.
Kit man George Hayden invited Lewis to help him put out the players' strips before leading them out, and chief executive Andy Walsh made Lewis mascot for the day.
