2br crossbar challenge
 

I'll pay it myself (hmm then again just in case) if anybody, at random from a ticket in the programme, hits the bar twice out of three attempts!!!!

see fishy site.


should be fun though. I reckon two out of the first three will end up upside down. New crowd killer competition - I hope its at the Accy end so we really jibe em if they are away fans!

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

I can see the Clayton End roof scheme replaced with a big net.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Nah, screw that... If they are away fans, make 'em run after the ball if it flys over! :D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Careful Macca, it was won a couple of times at the Turf last season :D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Blimey we should be used to it after Robbie Elliots kicks into the clayton end during half time when he was here [not many prospective new goalies in there tho:D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

That’s Burnley FC for you Dave, this one is a competition for the fans. :D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Our players don't even get close enough to hit the bar Doug, can assure you it was the fans. It's do-able :D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

I had noticed..............:D

I might have a go if I get chance, could do with a few bob. 10% to the OSC if I do. having said that the last time I went to kick a ball I missed the thing. :rolleyes:

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

:D brilliant more halftime entertainment just what we need good move:Banane37:

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Make the most of it, 2BR will soon turn it in to a farce :D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Are you saying that somebody actually hit the crossbar 2 out of 3 times?

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

I'm pretty sure it was done twice, maybe even three times. They even make you carry a giant cheque round for a lap of honour lol.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

What's new? Stanley did this either last season or the season before, for about 4 matches - 1 hit from 2 attempts in the penalty area "D". After a few weeks, a guy actually did it, and won a half season ticket. Can't remember it being carried on after that!! But it was fun while it lasted.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Did it go down well? They did it at Burnley last season but they ditched it this season

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Yes was quite god entertainment for 5 minutes. A lad came up missed the first one hit the second with a loud applause from the ultras! However the third shot missed so he didnt win the grand!

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

'twas funny. He really celebrated like a mad man when he hit it on the second attempt. Pressure must have been enormous! :P

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

That second one had to be a fluke. He barely got it off the floor in the other two!

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

looked liek he toe pooked hte 2nd one but he did well though

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

When I started to read my programme I realised there was no ticket anywhere inside so went back to the seller who said "Oh they forgot to put 'em in - someone will come round later with them!" What the heck was that all about?
Of course I never got a ticket - anyone else got mugged like me? Certain I would have won the grand.:D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

I didn`t get a ticket with my prog either, but looked on it as a lucky escape from embarrasing myself in front of the Ultras.

It was great when his second shot hit, everyone`s attitude totally changed and were willing him to do it. Something to tell his grandchildren.

"shot hit" good job I didn`t do a typo on that bit :)

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

How come they needed to film it for 'insurance' purposes?!

The County fans were laughing at first when he hit it straight along the ground, but when he hit it on the second attempt we were all willing him to do it and clapped him off.

It's a hard thing to do, the footballs they use are quite hard aswell so its toug to get them that high over that length a distance.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

I got a programme but i got no ticket either as much as a grand would be very useful, i dunno whether i was relieived as i'd be too nervous to take one & fluff up badly in front of everyone - phew :o

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

You’d be alright in stilettos Kisser, it’ll help with the drainage, have you never seen the lads giving it a good forking. (sorry).

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

The lad at the Crown steps was giving them out when it was quiet but nearer kick off when queues were forming it was too hard to rip them off quickly enough, so a few would have been missed there.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

My seller was just inside the Clayton end turnstile and no sign of any tickets at all

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Quality entertainment...!!!

Well worth the 540 mile round trip, spec when the poor lad was greeted with a rendition of "Strawberry blonde, your havin a laugh". Brightened up my day, result not so good tho'. Stockport look a quality side although I thought Stanley didn't really get hold of midfield and keep the ball untill Toddy came on and got amongst 'em a bit, Tony Grant wasted too many balls for me, but thats my opinion. Interesting to see Coley's comments in one of National papers admitting that he got his formation wrong, good on him.!!

ps Has Stanley Store got any bigger shorts for Rogers..??? :D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Hahahahahahahehe omg dont remind me of Rogers shorts :eek: they were a bit see thro weren't they :eek: not a pretty sight LOL!!!

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

I wondered what you were smiling at Mel!!!


might put a request in for some Rogers shorts.... might make Mrs Macca smile a bit more.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Smiling i was :rofl38: & he hasn't got the bum for it LOL:D [awaits for Pete & Doug to fill ya in on that convo us girlies were having hehehehehe:D ]

:rofl38: u could always ask him Macca:D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

If his shorts cost £10, I reckon 9 quids worth were not visible!!!

Tractorboy Red

ps Good to meet you Rob.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Dont you dare drag Doug and I into your sordid coversation with Sparkie and Harwood Red................We are innocent people ya know, aint that right Doug?! :rolleyes:

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

Hmmm...............think I need to have a stern chat with Mrs Cowboy..........looking at willies indeed, whatever next I wonder ;) !!

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

We weren't looking at willies at all!!! :wacko8:

DO YOU MIND SIR!!!!!:p

We were discussing the unavoidable view of Rogers at corners and the fact that his shorts were inappropriately tight and displaying his rather scanty black underwear for all to see!!! Talk about paying £5 for £3 to be stuck up your bum!!! :sick:
Needless to say we took a rather dim view and turned away!!!:D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

In fact so distressed at the view me and accymel have come down with a distressing bug which has the same systems as flu but is actually called "rog'athongaritis" and it's not good at all :(

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

So thats what it is......... cheers Rogers :( Funny cos i was fine up until then:rolleyes:

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

So you have both been 'rodgered' ? :rolleyes:

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

:eek: :eek: :eek: blumming heck the match wasn't that exciting LOL!!! More like a horrific view of a moon waining:rolleyes: :D:eek:

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

BUT THE QUESTION IS ....willie or wont he wear bigger shorts next time out?

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

:rofl38: hopefully for everyones sake he does especially as u want to borrow his current ones:D

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
 

and back on thread...... problems with tickets not being given out has now been solved - see fishy site.

Good move and quickly dealt with. Well done to the staff
