Have you thought about welly throwing or would trhere be too many Health & Safety issues?

[fuzzylogic]

I believe it was mentioned and was discounted for that reason. A bunch of pissheads throwing wellies around probably does no equate to a good time.

[guypjfreak]

Haha, it would be hilarious for the none injured spectators though

[xploit]

why not throw wellies over the security barrier no one to hit then besides the security blokes - but they have hi vis jackets so its safe

Bit of a shame about not having good old fashioned welly throwing but hardly surprising that H&S considerations always tend to get in the way of having a good time is it Anyone not taking precautions by wearing hi-vis should probably be fair game for target practice anyways I reckon !

Mind you, I guess that wellies may perhaps be needed for far more important things than casually throwing around in any case so how's about adding a Mud Wrestling event instead Long-range malicious and totally unfounded rumour has it that after last years extra-hard to bullet-proof ground conditions, the going is far more likely to be good to soft ... soft to even softer ... unbelievably soft to liquid this year to compensate so there's absolutely no danger of ground impact injuries for participants or indeed anyone else to worry about which is bound to keep those pesky H&S peeps well happy isn't it

More inclusion will be brilliant totally agree, but this isn't why myself, hogga and norainplease are not doing the football this year
