I remember a game at Withdean when the ball ran out for a throw right by the linesman's feet. He was standing fully ten yards from the goal line but to our disbelief, instead of signaling for a throw on, gave a goal kick instead. [emoji2]

I thought he was sacked after that incident in which case he didn't have previous. You are a true Goldstone legend mate!

Ha ha ha! Don't recall calling him an IDIOT lol. I rather enjoyed the whole affair, however, I will concede to being somewhat muddled as to it's denouement, so thanks for setting me right. Did your brother get the sack? I'm pretty sure we in the north stand sung 'Sign him up.'

The ballboy at the Wimbledon game at the Goldstone many years ago, who ran onto the pitch and passed the ball back to our goalie. It stopped a possible attack from the part of the pitch by the chicken run. The goalie stood for a moment shrugging but the ref waved play on.
