Wedding bells are in the air at Huntington Stadium after good sir knight Norris and fair maiden Rosemary Westmoreland recreated one of the happiest moments of their lives.
Rosemary, 52, took the chance to ask for her man's hand in marriage on February 29 when she got down on bended knee at half-time of the match at Sheffield and proposed in front of all the fans to mascot Norris the Knight, aka 47-year-old Pete Miller.
And they recreated the scene this week at the Knights' home ground.
Rosemary said: "I knew we were going to get engaged because he gave me a ring on Valentine's Day. But I wanted to do it properly so I decided to do it at the game - and I don't think he could believe I went through with it!"
Norris said: "The proposal itself wasn't a shock but the way she did it was - I didn't think she would have the bottle to do it!
"Everyone who knows her was surprised because she is actually really shy. I was always going to say yes, but I played the crowd a bit. It was all quite exciting."
The couple have been flooded with congratulations and Wendy Dixon, wife of chairman Roger, even suggested they should tie the knot at Huntington.
Norris added: "We haven't set a date yet but if we get to Cardiff in the Cup, I would quite like to get married there."
