Ball boys/girls

The Blackpool manager, amidst throwing indirect insults at us in his post match interview, said after we scored the ball boys (and girls) went missing and the balls on the cones disappeared.

Can anyone confirm if that was the case or is he just a bad loser trying to blame everything but himself? (The pitch, not enough added time, direct style, set pieces etc)

(Also am I right in thinking it's often standard practice at a certain time before full time to call the ball boys and girls in, to protect them in case of pitch invasions etc.)

I’ve noticed they’re quite often not there anymore, regardless of the score.

Thus was one of the new EFL rules inc massive extra time etc that fizzled out . Was meant to be balls around outer pitch at all times called multi ball or something.

For my part I hope we did it deliberately, specifically to wind up the manager of Blackpool, that we get away with it, and that we'd do it again.

It's Ian Evatt, he is and always has been, a cunt.

Edit: But yes, we remove them before the end every single game, even if we are losing.

Sounds like the kind of griping only a massive wet wipe would come out with.
