Desert Skipper Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Just watched yesterday’s cup game replay and found it interesting that Tyrone Roberts seems to be chewing gum throughout the entire game. Is this considered safe during play in the modern era of health and safety standards? Or was it something else? “There is perhaps no better a demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world.” Carl Sagan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was the referee who was usually accused of mastication, by aggrieved fans of a team he has just ruled against...or am I muddling my words?

AB Knight Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I know 3-4 years ago the players at York chewed Stay Alert gum while warming up to supposedly improve concentration during the match. Can't remember how much caffeine is in it but it's powerful stuff, I wonder if that's what the players are chewing? You also see a lot of footballers chewing gum too.

Wellsy4HullFC Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Are they not just chewing on their gym shield? I used to do that a lot. Hated the thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
