2br crossbar challenge
I'll pay it myself (hmm then again just in case) if anybody, at random from a ticket in the programme, hits the bar twice out of three attempts!!!!
see fishy site.
should be fun though. I reckon two out of the first three will end up upside down. New crowd killer competition - I hope its at the Accy end so we really jibe em if they are away fans!

I can see the Clayton End roof scheme replaced with a big net.

Nah, screw that... If they are away fans, make 'em run after the ball if it flys over!

Our players don't even get close enough to hit the bar Doug, can assure you it was the fans. It's do-able

I had noticed..............
I might have a go if I get chance, could do with a few bob. 10% to the OSC if I do. having said that the last time I went to kick a ball I missed the thing.

Are you saying that somebody actually hit the crossbar 2 out of 3 times?

I'm pretty sure it was done twice, maybe even three times. They even make you carry a giant cheque round for a lap of honour lol.

Re: 2br crossbar challenge
What's new? Stanley did this either last season or the season before, for about 4 matches - 1 hit from 2 attempts in the penalty area "D". After a few weeks, a guy actually did it, and won a half season ticket. Can't remember it being carried on after that!! But it was fun while it lasted.
