Who is ready to cringe ?

  • We could have them to direct smokers to the nearest toilets..
  • It's just a cheap stunt to get some free labour.....i'll give it 2 home games then by the 3rd all the `volunteers' would have chucked it in.
  • Why would you need train directions somewhere if you had already managed to get there?

    “Our aim is to make the match day experience that much better.” - Surely they could do that by telling them to turn round and go anywhere else.
  • I don't think this a bad idea, the foam hands aside, the idea of having a bit of decent customer service at a football ground isn't a bad thing.
  • Sorry but if CAFC had come up with this idea first they would definitely have done it, you lot would all be pissing yourselves with excitement at the prospect of being one and we would all be patting ourselves on the back about what a wonderful, community club we are.

    We just embarrass ourselves by slagging off every single idea CFPC come up with, without judging it on its merits.
  • DRF I totally agree!!!!!
  • I don't ;-)
  • sorry Nigel

    nope, it's shit.
  • If you're going to your team's home stadium, which you've probably been to before, if it the very rare instance you do need instant support - there are about 10,000 other people around you who know exactly what they're doing.

    Weird, weird club.

  • Oh dear... I worked with Olympic games makers and found those cringeworthy at times.

    Imagine if millwall did this?
  • What a load of old b*llocks.

    You needed people giving you advice at the Olympics because you had potentially 100,000 people not knowing where they should be.

    What do you do if you don't know the way to a ground? You ask one of the 7k (at Palace) that go the same route every game which way you should head.

    It's another desperate ploy for them to get noticed.
  • But have you seen the picture DRF? I don't usually join in, but this is hilarious!
  • Jonathan Acworth will be wet dreaming tonight about CAFC doing this!!!

    You've got to realise this could work....at a big club! a club like chelsea, arsenal, spurs who have gates more than 12-15k, clubs where tourists are likely to go to and likely to get tickets for. Not some circus in surrey.
  • To be fair they could have a use - If the toilets run out of bog roll, you could find a games maker resplendant in his gleaming uniform and borrow his foam hand to wipe your ar*se. I reckon they should all be knighted myself.
  • If we had them at CAFC we could just put them behind the bar and maybe all get served a pint at half time?

    There’ll be a lot of spilt pints with those giant foam hands on.

    But the Ultras don't need directions. they have a police escort.
  • true I didnt think this through, apologies

  • But you could mop up any spillages with the hands - they have so many uses.
  • Stadium maps?! It's a football pitch bolted on the side of Sainsburys, not the sodding Bernabeu.
  • What's sort of enhance match day experience are they trying to present? The ground is close to a number of sign post train stations with a map printed on the other side of the ticket, the majority of the crowd are British. It isn't going to help many out and it looks like yet another way of trying to reinvent themselves. Where is their next badge change due?

    If they don't have plans for the ground- they can use those for Peacehaven Sewage Works (below). Sellout may not smell as nice but they should be similar enough.

  • I thought someone was taking the piss when I first heard this droplet of gold.

    Can you imagine them awaiting the arrival of Leeds at south Norwood station? Resplendent in silly hats and foam hands armed with maps of the dirty horrible surrounding area?

    It's generated them a bit of publicity but only to turn them into more of a laughing stock than they already are.

    I'd be very embarrassed if we did something like this
  • perhaps the 'general information' they will give out involves finding a nearby public toilet where the floor is not swimming with piss.
  • And each volunteer will be dressed in an eye-catching uniform in the club’s colours of red and blue. They will also carry Wurthers Original's and pictures of puppies and none of them have been CRB checked!

    What if - as is likely - there isn't one?
  • No matter how bad we are playing, how many players get injured or what is happening at the club, we can always look at Palace to put things into perspective
