Personally I don't like the idea. We did it at the Leeds game a couple of years back and at the risk of sounding miserable, I find it just irritating because it takes about 30 seconds to pass over and you miss moments of the game. Do it before kick-off or make the shirt transparent or leave it for the kids to shake about in the centre circle![]()
I couldn't make the Leeds game a couple of seasons ago due to a wedding and didn't realise till now that the shirt was passed round while the game was on? That's stupid! I can understand people not wanting to do it now. If it's going to be passed around it should be done before KO.
It was done as the players came out vs leeds, but as it went round the tesco and the telegraph stands it ment that those who were last to get it got it as the game had started. The stewards should probably collect it between the telegraph and tesco rather than letting it go all the way round.
I don't remember that? If we did I'm seriously getting worried about my memory!
It was back when we had Marlon King. I swear before the game it was floating around the left of the stand by the scoreboard. I might still have a picture.
Edit. Yeah, photo here, can see it up in the stand - http://i.imgur.com/e5y6zQQ.jpg
I was at that game and really don't remember that! But I was right near the front, looks like it may not have got down near me!
