Lags Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 If the Donny players shooting was that tennis player's (forgot his name) hitting they'd be up on a charge! Anyone just reading the stats to the game would have thought Donny were all over us with the shot count. Just shows how stats can indeed lie. Their shooting was absolute woeful.

happyterryb Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 (edited) I assume the reason is to stop fraud and back pocketing. Its easy to admit someone and pocket the money if you are one of 20 turnstile operators... I thought the turnstiles had a counter on them so that should prevent fraud. The only way you could pocket the money is if you allowed the paying punter to jump over the turnstile without moving it. In these days of cctv I would have thought the Security would be watching the turnstiles at admission time.

Lags Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 The criminal mind always finds a way..... Pay in as a junior thou 42 and give the operator a fiver...split the difference. For sure the last visit to Port Valve they (operators and steward on gate) were defo taking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happyterryb Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 The number of Donny shots that went high, wide and handsome seemed inexplicable last night. Now we've found out that Chadwell was Donny and a lazer was being shone from the Donny end of the ground. Could it have been that Chadwell was in the Donny end and his powerful night-time vision was concentrated on the boots of the Donny players? The truth is out there! There were so many wild shots you would normally question the state of the pitch. But that one was like a carpet. I don't think I've seen a better playing surface anywhere. Even the old Wembley pitch didn't look that good. This helped the tic's though because it encouraged our passing game. I for one was delighted with the amount of possession we had in the second half particularly... We looked like the latics of old. Bring on Crewe!!!!

Both teams played better when facing our end of the stadium. Therefore it must have been the lazer putting them off when playing towards the Donny fans.
