Obscure detail from last night to distract from loss... 16:52 - Jan 17 with 1059 viewsjasondozzell

Has anyone else noticed that just outside the touchline of the pitch at the North stand end there are two very small marks made with touchline paint? One on each side and about in line with the penalty spot. There look to be the same at the Churchman's end.

I have never noticed them before but last night maybe because of the constant stops for Brighton time wasting etc I did.

I wondered if they have been added as a little reference point for players for certain movements/pattern of play. Any other theories?

Are they to indicate 10 yards from the corner flag to help the officials detect encroachment?

The same marks are there along the goal-line?

Ah that makes sense! Don't know how after so many years I'd never noticed them before! Thanks
