it is raining at the Britannia, and at the free kicks the spray hasn't been used.
If it can't be used in the rain, it means it won't be in use for most of the winter then.
I'm guessing it wouldn't work on a pitch which has snow on it either, as it wouldn't be visable

Ref could just draw a line in the snow!
A yellow line?
In the winter they use different coloured balls so they are more visible.
That is what I was thinking Give it the beginning of November we will be back to playing with a Yellow bal again.
I no the Premier league sides barely have a flake of snow on them during play.
Indeed.
With most - if not all - PL clubs having undersoil heating, the only reason why games get called off when there is snow is on grounds of public safety, if roads on approach to ground and stadia car parks and concourse are deemed unsafe.
Yeh but that wasn't proper English rain was it.
The refs should use that expanding foam used by builders to fill gaps around masonry/windows etc.
It’s waterproof, weatherproof, quick-drying and comes in different colours.
It’s also permanent....... so it would give the home-team players/manager an excellent indication of what went wrong when they concede a goal from a free-kick.
They could use the hardened foam to accurately re-create the exact position of the ball and defensive-wall at the time of the free-kick and hopefully learn from their mistakes.
I can’t believe the FA hasn’t considered this ‘solution’ before.
Yeh, nuffink can 'andle them cold propah rainy english nites at like stoke an them otha norfern cittis innit? Not even dat bazilain fella mezzy that plays for real madid like, an he's well gud.
Sorry to be be pedantic, but I think ‘dat bazilain fella’ you’re referring to is Lionel Messi.....he plays for Atlético Madrid not Real Madrid; and he’s actually Uruguayan........same nationality as the notorious ‘dental assassin’ Luis Sturridge.
Fanx 4 dat. i gotz muzzled up, i fink! So hez a urugay, dats gud 4 him like. i fink i no a fuw of dem, 1 of me bessie m8s 1 too. i fink 1 even plays for ze gerries!
You're welcome; glad to be of help.
It doesn't work, they're still there.
You have missed your way in life, that would have been an excellent solution for the pre-video 1950s or even 1960s! ;-)
Is that a euphemism?
I actually for a moment thought my browser had converted the page to a foriegn language
Ow, my brain hurts.
I don't think Burnley or Crystal Palace have undersoil heating?
