'I'm Martin from Wakefield!' - Viral sensation makes comic appearance in Huddersfield's Siewert announcement video

Huddersfield Town's new sensation 'Martin from Wakefield' made a cameo appearance for the club in a hilarious video presenting new boss Jan Siewert.

Sunday's Premier League clash against Manchester City took place with the Terriers closely linked to the Borussia Dortmund II coach, who was the hot favourite to succeed David Wagner.

And for a few brief minutes it appeared that broadcasters Sky Sports had spotted Siewert in the home stands as they went down 3-0 to remain bottom of the standings.

It proved to be a case of mistaken identity, however: 'Siewert' turned out to be Martin Warhurst, a local hospice director who happened to be sitting in the Huddersfield directors' box.
