Love Snoddy and hope he gets a great reception.  But obviously I hope he and West Ham have a shocker tonight.

We could certainly make use of him now.

I will be amazed if he doesn’t get a good reception tonight

I'll give him a clap before the start, but after that he's one of them not one of us

In much the same way I think it's silly some players get booed on their return (Downing excepted obviously) I'm not going to get carried away with a player who spent less than a year here.

Yes, he came good in the end but he was a Premier League player and for the first two months he looked more like a pub player, such was his fitness level.

He's another in a long list of players that in 10 years time I'll have probably forgotten he ever played for us.

I won't have forgotten him. He always gave his all and seemed to "get" the club and connect with fans in a way that many players who were here for much longer never did.

It was nice that he got a great reception from the Holte End at the end of the game. Well deserved.

I agree there have been plenty of occasions when I've been baffled as to why we boo certain former players. Obviously Downing and Delph deserve all they get and worse.

Snodgrass wasn’t even our player but he gave everything for us, unlike so many others we can all name. He’s a great bloke, and welcome back any time.

I certainly won't forget him, considering he was a loaner he gave his all!

Did anyone who went to match see if he got a good reception?

He did! Clapped the Holte at the end as well.

Fans applauded him before the start and at the end, deservedly so

Mutual respect was nice to see, before and after the game
