Yup-you were supposed to put them on if you were front rank when the half-bricks and marbles started appearing your way.

Trouble is, you looked like Douglas Bader with your finger in an electrical socket if you tried to run.

Bloody useless things

Have you never heard of Irish cricket? The rules are basically the same, just that the kit's a bit different. The fellas were waiting to go in to bat.

Brilliant memories of the glorious 70s in Belfast. The only problem back then for me was that none of the weegirls were up for it which was a big problem to a sex mad teenager. I had to wait until I left to go to college in England before my I found sufficient available fanny available. Back then English girls certainly did GO.
