You can see two of Paul Fletcher's Marvellous Flying Machines (TM), patent pending, on the pitch in the background too.

Netting is a bit excessive for Crawley at home isn’t it?

You really don't get a good view of the RH side of the pitch. I wouldn't be at all happy with that.

They should have made it a giant glass divider instead. What's the worst that could happen.

Immediately brought back memories of watching the Clarets through a huge net at Olympiakos!

Is it possible to put enough tension on it so that any lemon (from either side) receives any objects thrown, back at themselves with equal force?

Inflatables...... I've looked on line and I might buy 1000 inflatable cod, herring etc.Sell them outside for a £3 profit. CFS fans can then blow them up and throw them at the netting. Harmless fun

Hundreds of Burnley fans in these would be funny. They’d have to talk about it on Sky.

They'd be a hell of a lot of "wood" in the away end if we all wore those

What's the betting someone tries to climb up the netting if we win or even score?
I hope it's been strength tested.

Forget flags for creating an atmosphere, the club should put one of those on every seat.
