Evening all,
Two stories in one.
Had a great experience taking my boy as a mascot yesterday, he loved every minute. The mock press conference when we arrived was a great touch and he got to lead out onto the pitch with his favourite player Anthony Knockeart which was amazing...and he didn't look that shorter than him and he's only 7!
Having sat in all sides of the Amex I was really looking forward to sitting next to the dugouts yesterday to see what the pitch view and atmos was like, great view loved being that close to the subs and CH, atmos lacking in WSL though...look forward to being back in my new North stand seat with the boy for the next game.
I was right behind the Bolton bench and literally inches from the Bolton back up staff down the side of the tunnel. What surprised me was how Sunday league their whole set up was. Honestly three or four of them in the technical area moaning and bitching at their players when they made a mistake all f'ing and jeffing at their players. Players looked scared of them. Neil Lennon looked like a complete bully, and has clearly lost his old skills cause he missed kicking the ten chewing gum pieces he spat out in frustration.
Overall great day out, lovely being so close to CH and the subs, Skalak looks keen! cannot wait for him to settle in...and seeing CH with his son at the end was a nice touch too.
Has anyone else been close to the away team staff and thought the idea of professional managers being motivational and highly technical etc was a given, and then realised that actually they are just as two bob as what you see down the parks on a Sunday morning?
