LongTimeLurker Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Oakley already have a set of training lights so they already have pylons so that probably makes sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have them on telegraph poles like the had at Brocville. Off topic but the groundhopper blog came across as a right w****r. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was really patronising making out there was only crowd at the Haws game with Lithgae due to his circus. Also a bit of a patronising comment about the Haws catering. All in all an attention seeking baw bag. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"The fact is that groundhoppers made up less than half of the attendance here" i.e. most people were not from his "circus" unlike other games. He said he smiled at the club's reaction to doing anything other than pies and said it was similar to England with their burgers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
