really? when I saw them close up I remember them being shaped liked a squashed circle (if cut in half) meaning the ball had more deflection into the goal or something, also a tinny sound when I tapped on them.....thats not wood!
Elliptical is the word you are looking for and yes they were.
Oh dear, let's not start this again. The Goldstone goalposts were most definitely wooden. They probably aren't these days though.
I have part of the net of one of the goals. A lady was cutting bits off with a pair of scissors in Old Shoreham Road. My bit of net doesn't have any blue on just the white part. Will I need to return this when Falmer opens?
Yeah, and Ipswich had a blue stick at the back for no apparent reasonDo you remember West Ham and QPR?.They were really shallow and the ball used to hit the net and bounce out again!
The goalposts in Dick Knights garage were definitely metal
anyone got a better picture than this? as I've seen one from the North Stand and it will prove they were metal in the closing days of the Goldstone as wood does'nt bend it SNAPS!
this is the goldstone my fatballboy
