I heard some floating fans discussing they wouldnt be coming back to belle vue as they couldnt see in the dark.

Don't mean to lower the tone (imagine) but can you tell us how you knew they were floaters with no bulb?

I could hear them speaking.

The conversation went something like

person 1 'Enjoyed that first half, Demitri is playing well'

person 2 'Yeah i havent been for years brought my 11 kids from Eastmoor, wont be coming again though as there is no light bulb in the toilet'

Quite simply the best and most informed thing on here in ages, a sensible debate some witty reposts and good old fashioned english toilet humour, Id like to say that on sunday at half time i did urinate in the toilets mentioned and it resulted in a shoe splash, (right) this is perhaps because there was a draught, for which i wholly hold the club responsible, or because im left handed which I put down to genetics.

To rectify this I have been urinating in the wind all week by trying to get a medium shirt down the club.

of course when I have urinated at other more modern stadiums with such fangled facilities as lights splashes have never occured, although after wigan away earlier in the season some kebab dropped on to my shoe resulting in a severe chilli scorch, for which I hold the club totally responsible for winning and making me drink lots of beer.

I went to them said toilets at half time and guess what, i decided to spend a bit more energy in walking to another one its not rocket science that if there's no light you use one of the others.

maybe we should take the roof off

Prior to Franny Stephenson returning to the club the gym at the ground had very few lightbulbs in it due to lack of funds.

if you listen really carefully the sound you here is windows breaking in every house in st helens and the buls being removed for sale at street corners near belle vue, the dulcet tones of "NEED A BULB MATE?" whispered from beneath their face masking hoodies.

heaven forbid anyone wearing a medium shirt or knife crime in the region may increase 100 fold overnight.
