IIRC L&P wanted to use these at the CG but weren't allowed to by the H&S people until they'd done a full risk assessment of them. Presumably because they had the word "cannon" in the name. Unsurprisingly said H&S folk were then spectacularly unhelpful in what would constitute a full risk assessment and refused to commit to any time before the game they wanted to use them at anyway so they wouldn't be able to assess the risk assessment and wouldn't let anyone else validate it. So they got stymied. Port Vale's people might not be such a-holes but just thought it was worth a warning before you go spending a load of money on something you might not be allowed to use.
That's great, mate. Thanks for this. I need to make sure they're fire-proof etc. Unfortunately Vale haven't been very communicative. I'm starting to think I may need to call someone on their end. |

I'm sure as long as you don't plan to set fire to the away end they probably couldn't care less if you want to throw confetti about and make balloon animals or not |

I'll be taking a paper for ticka tape action. One of the best was last day of the season 1990 at stoke. Think there's a pic in the po programme from the Blackburn game.
That was the one we drew 1-1, and Alan MacLoughlin was roaring us on when we had a corner in front of us, right? Just looked at the tail end of that season, as I thought we were pretty poor, considering we ended up beating Sunderland at Wembley.... Last 12 games: Won 3 Drew 5 Lost 4 |

Aye, then the club had the nerve to use a picture of that Yeovil display for the 2006/07 ST renewal form, a display which was banned in our ground. They disposed of the cardboard cutouts as well for H&S iirc. |

Cheers. We took 650 to Crewe, so I'm setting that as how many might have gone (if not less) without the Trust and I doing this, so any more than that and I'm considering it a success. I've called 3 different offices at Port Vale today and none of them are picking up. Not surprising considering it's a matchday. I'll try again tomorrow... |

But you've never brought enough to be put in that open end.
