Ball Boys/Girls/ Gender fluid types - bluetagagain - 17-08-2022

Didn’t see any last night. Do we still use them? Is it a H& S thing or a ‘gamesmanship ploy’. 
It just used to be a big thing for local nippers etc. Another thing I’ve noticed of late is at halftime there appears to be no one on one warm up / training with the sub keeper.

Do you think it's unlikely we'll see the pom-pom girls again?

There was one sat to the left of the Fe goal, just seen Ogilvie running past touch his outstretched hand after the 4th goal. There wasn't one on the right hand side of the goal as I commented how long it took Cambridge to retrieve the ball and take a throw in when it was 1.1. Hauntstrup wasn't bothered, in the end a central defender strolled to get it

I liked the brazillian dancers botty wobbling. The best/only thing Chainrai did for the club.

"The best/only thing Chainrai did for the club".

Did they not perform at the first home game after the PST took over?

They were indeed 10 days after the club was saved in court. 

Chanrai provided the Bhangra drummers and dancers. They were pretty good too.

There were two at the ME.

We seemed short on mascots last night too.
and back to ball boy thing. didn't I read somewhere that all clubs are to have a ball on a cone at intervals around the pitch to speed up play. ?


RE: Ball Boys/Girls/ Gender fluid types - Northstander - 17-08-2022

Not sure that's in our level of football Hammie

I thought the Brazilians were after Chainrai.

He left us a handful of the TVs for the Fratton End though. Took a couple of owners for them to get installed though
