FAO Bob Lorders

Post by agreenwood » Fri Aug 09, 2019 12:25 pm

Good afternoon

If you’re in the Bob Lord this season, fans in the JHU would appreciate it if you could develop a unified means of communicating the VAR information on the screen we can’t see.

Semaphore fashioned from rugs is acceptable.

Thanks in advance.

Semaphore from rugs is a ridiculous suggestion.

You need to club together and get the fourth referee to use the spares linesmen's flags for semaphore.

It takes a while for these things to register with Bob Lorders.
The match report in tomorrow's papers might be quicker.

They’ll switch the monitor to Downton Abbey.

Just keep an eye on Dyche and his interactions with the fourth official

If he's only mildly abusing the fourth official, the decision has probably gone for us

If he's getting his mate Woany up to join him in berating the fourth official, the decision has probably gone against us

Whilst we’re at it, please tell the cricket fielders to sing at a proper tempo. If in doubt, watch the ‘Burnley are Back’ video about winning the 4th Div. We knew how to sing then, it’s not that hard!

Red thermos red card
Yellow thermos yellow card.
Both held up penalty.
Red held up over yellow horizontally forming a T no penalty.
Rush to the exits not at full or half time is not football related just means the laxatives have kicked in.

Post your mobile numbers on here and I'll set up a group WhatsAp chat between the Bob Lord and JHU and I'll message you the second the decision is announced.

However. The people who run our big screen aren't the quickest in the world and the internet connection at the Turf leaves something to be desired so don't be expecting to be leaving the ground much before 6pm from a 3pm kick off.

Is the PA going to relay VAR info?

You'll need to explain to the Bob Lorders how this works.

They can download the Bugs Bunny guide. It's a WhatsApp Doc.

If the smoking ban hadn't come into force we could have exhaled smoke signals with our Woodbines.

There's a mixed aroma of Formaldehyde and mothballs :)

I think I read that the VAR guys take over the screen as required.
