Meeters and Greeters....Lord have mercy.........

[Tbilisi]

The other week for the Spurs game I was walking up Joe Mercer way and about 4 groovy looking types by the MCFC logo thing shouted to me & my lads " How are you,have a great day" I didn't think anything of it until they started doing it to everyone else who passed.

I dismissed it as a one off but dear me they were at it again last night.

Now I can take anything,even a pathetic performance against Newcastle but wtf is all that about?

Ive had my head kicked in at places like Leeds,Boro and even Sheffield united over the years but this meeting and greeting shit feels 10 times worse.

Quentin,Sebastian or one of his mates in Marketing who may be reading this,please stop this nonsense now,old fcukers like me cant take it.

Noticed it at the start of the season. Easiest job in the world, but a total waste of money. However I don't see any harm in it.

They are there before and after games on most of the major routes into and out of the ground

No harm in it, just weird we are paying people to do it. At least it gets people in work I guess.

Walked up the footpath by the tram line from holt town for the spurs game, one was loitering under a bridge 'have a nice game' WTF?

I noticed a few of these inside the stadium, decked out in full City gear, they even had boots on.

I heard the first one say " hi, I'm Ferni, here's the ball have a free run on goal " then a bit later on something similar a bloke in a Anglo / French twang saying " hi, I'm Bacri, don't know where I'm supposed to be, just run through, I'm lost "

They were joined by a bald guy in the goalkeeper kit, he muttered " I'm mates with the manager, I don't want to get this kit dirty "

We used to call them defenders and keepers, but with all this political correctness gone mad, meeters and greeters it is.

The question is did you have a nice day, we actually won that game, seems so long ago now.

Maybe they provide information for the day trippers, those who get lost looking for a near 2 foot letter of the alphabet that tells you what entrance to use.

I only guessing.

Beat up at Sheff Utd - you should be embarrassed to admit that - ;)

What's wrong with it?

Waste of time if you ask me, but if someone says hello big deal.

Saw them last night on the way out near the merc garage.
2 guys dressed in dark blue tracksuits said "cheers lads, have a nice evening" as we passed. Wrong phrase to use following the match but it was strange anyway. Was like something a bounce would say to you after leaving a bar.
