Does anyone 'organise' our ball boys? Sheffield United's ball boys are coached on 'game control' and know how and when to return ball's quickly when the team is behind, and return the ball slowly when they are winning. They are even 'coached' to return three balls on to the field of play at once knowing their players can take time despatching two of them. Our ball boys sit on their arse obliviously picking their noses.
I’ve noticed it too. In fact, I noticed Greaves lose his patience and tell a ball boy to hurry up twice this season already, once today and once against Leicester. I know they’re kids and it’s easy to get caught up in the game as a spectator but they’ve still got a job to do.
Thought i was the only one that saw that.The kid was literally just sitting there instead of getting the ball today
I used to do it when I was a kid. I remember Jan Molby calling me a stupid **** because I couldn’t get a ball on the pitch fast enough after it had gone over the stand at boothferry park. He was oblivious to the fact that we were only given two spare balls in those days and I didn’t have one, and the very important fact that I was 12 years old. The horrible fat scouse **** him.
