During the final warm up before kick-off, a young lad got hit full on in the face by a wayward football. Nathan Arnold immediately went halfway up into the Pontoon stand to check that the lad was ok.
I was talking to Lee Mullins on the pitch when this happened, he also made his way up to check on the lad and spoke to his dad. Lee then took the lad and his dad to the club shop and gave him a signed football.
Well done Nathan and Lee

I see that from the upper Findus, that was a fantastic gesture by Lee, I see Nathan go up the stairs to see the young lad too.

Good gesture from both........ Nathan did the same at Torquay last year even when the Muppet steward tried to stop him. We have a good set of players as I understand nit Toto did the similar earlier in the season. Last week at Eastleigh Brownie hit a chap and was straight over there making sure things where o.k.. |

I got smacked on the head by a shot from Dave Wilson in the warm up years ago which knocked me off the fence I'd been perched on.
All that happened then was my mates laughed their heads off and the players asked for the ball back.
Seriously though a nice touch by Nathan and Lee to give the young 'un some reward for the pain caused

Can anyone remember being at the Vetch Field when we drew 0-0 in the fa cup many moons ago? I always remember Tony Rees leathering a typical warm up effort into the away end and absolutly obliterating a young lad who was perched on the lean on railing thingys. His tea went 1 way, his pie went the other and his body did a 360 before his head followed! Was it anyone on here?  |

I remember an old boy near me at Notts County away in the side stand on a Tuesday night got his specs knocked off and blooded his face by a ball in the face . I tried to get it but I was not quick enough. when i looked down it looked like Lee Hughes and all the other tossers were laughing and using town fans as target practice = All a bunch of twits

When I sat in the Pontoon during the 2001/2002 season, the old boy next to me, who sat with his wife (with small dog in her handbag!), had a Menno Willems rocket straight to the schnozz in the warm up. Glasses went everywhere, as did blood from said schnozz. Did Willems look to apologise? Did he intercourse and why would he? As far as I could tell he was clearly paid a small fortune to miss the goal and bloody good at it he was too.

I seem to remember him having some kind of local connection but can't recall what it was. That does ring a bell though. |

I'd always heard something like that - something about a party to celebrate the wedding in North Thoresby and Phil Lynott staggering down the high street drunk and walking in to somebody's house. |

I'd always heard something like that - something about a party to celebrate the wedding in North Thoresby and Phil Lynott staggering down the high street drunk and walking in to somebody's house.
At the time a friend of mine frequented The Mill House at Covenham. Gary Moore booked the wedding in a marquee on the lawn, arranged the food etc but then told the totally bewildered landlord that they didn't need his "disco", they would bring their own entertainment. On the day, an articulated lorry arrived with the bands equipment. The whole place was drunk dry. After the beer ran out, all the spirits disappeared too. |

I was at Boston a few years ago and the ball whizzed into the stand, As I swayed out of the way the bloke next to me but a protective arm up and the ball ricocheted into my head smashing my brand new specs.
