Manual Scoreboards
Lierse decided to kick off their pre season with a trip to nearby Katelijne to play the more senior of the town's two clubs, promotion league (4th tier) Katelijne Waver.
I must admit to being a little disappointed with the ground, which offered little more than a lot of provincial grounds.
Unusually for this level, it was also without a scoreboard, which allowed me to introduce Miss NAC to the concept of manual scoreboards, essential in the goal glut that is Belgian pre-season.
The process involves moving coins from one pocket to another as the goals went in.
Let the record state that, in it's first appearance of the season, it was wrong at the end!!!
