Not having one Mike. Just scattered anywhere will do me.

Not scattered in the stand surely as "Someone" will have to sweep you up again, Is the Rattle going with you or left to the club in yer will?

Won't go into a great deal of detail but thanks to mrsenario & "homeless" Billy for their help today.
The two programme & 50/50 ticket sellers were (as a lot of main stand users will have noticed over the years) getting soaked or having to do their job in any other weather that was thrown at them, they both now have dry, well sheltered areas to work from. Steve at the West end of the main stand will move a couple of foot and be working from a counter just inside the GMA door. Phil on the East end will now be selling from a new covered area just inside Vaughans old car park.
A Sunday morning down there wouldn't be the same without a mrsenario [SwearFilter] up, today was no different. He was walking backwards admiring some of his handiwork and put his foot slap bang in the middle of the paint tray. If you notice a load of right foot size 8 blue footprints knocking about.....it was him.
Even though they had to go, it was still a bit sad seeing the last two floodlights laying across the HSE terracing.

Haha, the "nice chap" on the pop side will be well looked after Mark, we have you one of them cinema ice cream sellers trays that you hook around your neck and an umbrella.
Seriously, my next step was to speak with you about what we can do to make it more comfortable. I'll see you Saturday mate.

Might be too late for that already handed in my transfer request, been informed Cello Topics could do with a bit of help!!
If you carry the Umbrella for me I may have second thoughts though.

Haha, it's really not hard work...we all enjoy it otherwise we would've stopped long ago.
If anyone wants any pictures of what went on (today was all for the programme sellers so nothing too spectacular as far paying supporters will notice) then just PM me your e-mail address and I'll send them off.
Sorry for all those that have done that in the past but they sort of get mixed up in other addresses.
