Posted March 31, 201510 yr A banished non-league manager came up with an original way to get round his stadium ban - by watching the game through a skylight. Poole Town boss Tom Killick used the window of groundsman Chris Kelly's home overlooking the club's Tatnam ground. Killick saw his side beat Cambridge City 3-2 on Saturday to stay top of the Southern League Premier Division. "I can pretty much see the whole pitch apart from the goalmouth at the end I watch it from," said Killick. He told the Bournemouth Echo: "It is quite a good vantage point but being detached from the players makes life difficult." Killick was serving the fifth match of a six-game suspension for comments made to a referee during a defeat by Redditch on 17 January. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32123192
March 31, 201510 yr Probably paneful for him not to be on the sidelines,but he didn't let the ban jam him up and stop him from watching his team.
March 31, 201510 yr Just seing that glazed look in his eyes you can't help but feel sorry for him watching on unable to help the lads.
March 31, 201510 yr He might not be able to talk to the players during but no doubt it gives him a better idea of his team's performance than if he'd just watched the skylights after the match.

March 31, 201510 yr I noticed they're sponsored by Carlsberg. Probably the best peeping Tom in the world?.
March 31, 201510 yr This just goes to show that the stadium bans dished out by the FA are completely pointless. All this fuss just so some bureaucrat can put attic in the correct box.
