    Steady on. Another 17 words and you'll be into Stendel dismissal territory.
    Best thing is KEEP IT SHORT.

    To be fair to the scribe, i think he likes to include some local context where he can, it adds drama and suspense and draws the reader into the story, connecting to his audience and take us on the journey.

    Exactly, this report was written for people that couldn’t make the game, I wanted them to feel part of the 4500 that was there last light, I bet there’s quite a few with hardly any nails left by the time they’d read it.

    I can 100% say there wasn’t any but if there was I’d be really annoyed but I know for a fact there wasn’t, but if by chance there was I’d be soooo angry

    No, he's saying that some ST holders couldn't make the game as they were unsuccessful in the ballot

    Oh right, i thought you meant that the ST holders nailed their tickets to the wall and hence no longer would have been a ST holders and then shouldn't be in and then. It amazes me that people take nails ready to nail the ST if the performance doesn't suit.

    But if they didn’t take nails what would they have to bite?…but more importantly I find it odd that people complain about the size of the scoreboard, its huge when you’re sat in the north stand :D
