Thought you weren't supposed to face the pitch when you're on duty???

Re: Cheerleaders at Stanley - Oh No!
 

I've been watching St Helens and the cheerleaders come on the pitch when a try has been scored but don't seem to leave until they've done their routine even if the match has restarted. I think this is too much but it's good for the half time break, let's get them up Stanley for half time only.

Re: Cheerleaders at Stanley - Oh No!
 

The pitch quality may deteriorate if their is something to look at instead of the grass when im on at half time :D

Re: Cheerleaders at Stanley - Oh No!

Had a look but the St Helens cheerleaders are babes.

The idea of cheerleaders (as in Ra-Ra Pom-Pom etc) is really naff.

However , I'm all in favour of things going on on the pitch at half-time and pre-match (most people would be seated well before the kick-off if my "early toss" idea had been treated seriously by the Club)

The problem is , as always , that it would need someone to organise this planned entertainment on a regular basis. The Club is highly unlikely to find the funds to retain such a person , so we're back to volunteers . Sadly , the goodwill of most potential helpers has already been stretched well past breaking-point and they are unlikely to commit themselves to another exercise in being p***ed about with no thanks for or appreciation of their efforts.

The only answer is , I believe , enlightened self-interest. For example , a third party (such as a local business) sponsors the entertainment and provides the personnel to see it through.

There's no doubt , though , that a "professional" football club should have something going on for the paying punters during the gaps in the two-and-a-half hours when no football is being played.

Re: Cheerleaders at Stanley - Oh No!
 

I think I've said this on numerous occasions, but I hate the idea of cheerleaders at football matches.

I think you're right Henry to suggest that entertainment before the game and possibly at half-time is a good idea, but why do we have to go down this route? Surely someone can think of a better idea? :(

Re: Cheerleaders at Stanley - Oh No!
 

henry your wrong wrong wrong when you say "most" i only know of three who have had a genuine complaint of late...thats the well documented ticket selling fiasco...and two seem to have got over the problem.. leaving just you........... buit whatever... your now trying to suggest most people have a problem

theres a whole army of voulanteers who help out at stanley week in and week out ...some where doing it years before you or i came on the scene and are still doing it.. please dont let your argument with the club taint all people who help out the club..

Re: Cheerleaders at Stanley - Oh No!
 

WE could even just have fans penatly shoot out or something like that couldnt we?

Re: Cheerleaders at Stanley - Oh No!
 

Sod the cheerleaders.What about pole dancers, maybe using the goalposts?
