Where's ball at now

by Twinkletoes 4/22/2014 7:15:27 PM
Ball has been spotted three times - following a huge scream and a huge run, it's moved about three metres.

Come on downies all the way we going down we yelling downies

Mark Fryer said Ihe's 53 and too old for Uppies and Downies - he's wearing his traditional attire and can't help going into the scrum and helping out now and again. His brothers and nephews are playing too and as a Downie, he says his side has the advantage

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 7:14:38 PM
traditions are good . badger baiting at half time .

Downies pushed again we're now in the direction of the layby. Chris Tomlinson, 20, of Milburn Street, spent 15 vto 20 minutes in the scrum, he managed to get his hands on the ball and said Downies have had advantage so far and he's planning to go back in as he'd like to hail the ball. He said it's good to keep the traditions going.

Mark Fryer is on the edge of the scrum, keeps having a look but not venturing in. Are there tactics at play?

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 7:02:07 PM

by jacko 4/22/2014 6:57:34 PM
Sorry uppies - ball's still on the Green, nearer Duke Street but that slope upwards appears to be an obstacle for the Uppies to push it up.

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 6:54:51 PM

A 4x4 has driven across the Green and there are a few vans and cars parked around there too..... are they just watching or is there a plan?

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 6:52:12 PM
Energetic push up the slope to Duke Street, but as the slope was steep so they came back down quickly.

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 6:51:18 PM
I think they may need aired as well

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 6:48:13 PM

by jacko 4/22/2014 6:47:28 PM
Uppies surged and pushed it towards Duke Street but stalemate has resumed.

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 6:47:15 PM
leave them at fag counter in tescos marra.

by jacko 4/22/2014 6:45:07 PM
The ball flew out of the scrum and people started chasing it in the direction they thought it had gone before realising it was a plastic drinks bottle and charging back the other way for the actual ball. So we still haven't moved much further

by nicole.regan 4/22/2014 6:44:28 PM
The last 20 minutes has seen he scrum move backwards and forwards on The Green near to the Tesco roundabout #uppies
