Firstly I cannot recall going to the ground and it not being cleared of litter over the years and I very much doubt it was done by any paid employees if we had any.
The late Jim Elliot was a volunteer as far as I know then Phizzer did it along with many other odd jobs and then I took over 10 years ago.
I was there every day doing the cleaning inside the crossbar building and outside in the ground.
The two other people there everyday being Les kit man doing the washing and the paid employee Suzanne doing the admin and she was also the bar manager.
As for today I must say I do enjoy litter picking and it was a change to get out of the kitchen.
Considering the number of people in attendance the litter to be picked up was a pleasant surprise. I have picked up much much more in our non league days with far less fans. The stand was done in no time and I diverted back to the kitchen and the other two hardly souls carried on.
As the photo shows you will get those who dispose of their rubbish in the most inappropriate places but they are the exception.
So well done to the majority who took responsibility for their rubbish. It was appreciated.
