    He has a random number generator on his mobile. Every now and again he uses it and relays the number to the tannoy man, who announces the Phase to the stewards.

    Always wondered the same. At a guess the pitch side director relaying subs and that and they’re the ones who give the ref thumbs up when they can kick off after adverts.

    Ive often wondered in the Prem games what role do all those extras on the sidelines play.
    The girls who sit behind desks with headphones, those who stand around with clipboards and pens, those with microphones, etc.
    Sinecures either for Sky or the clubs.

    Not heard/read 'sinecure' for a long time. You must be an educated bloke!

    He's in charge of the flamethrowers.

    He's a firestarter. Twisted firestarter.
