MASCOT


from the ABC set THIS SPORTING LIFE

I was amused to see at the weekend that the Bolton Wanders mascot a seven foot Lion was ordered by the referee to stay at the Bolton end of the ground in the first half because the lion was confusing the Norwich City players.
At half time the Lion reappeared wearing the Bolton away strip and was allowed to resume his duties.
I cant help thinking that Norwich city's position at the foot of the premiership table may be related to their inability to differentiate between a seven foot Lion and fellow footballers.
