Yes. The teams had done their usual warm ups and had gone back in with ten minutes to go. The ‘officials’ stayed on the pitch until 19:47 talking amongst themselves and Stanley staff, whilst one of them was on his phone for five minutes, before the announcement was made.
I have no evidence, other than watching one of them ‘testing’ his patch, that a concern was the lines-mens’ ‘fear’ having to run up and down on the plastic carpet alongside the pitch.
