Naaah, they're great. Even better are adult mascots. I think that's a massive missed opportunity - you too could pay a wodge of cash to walk onto the pitch holding hands with Shola, then have a kick-about on the pitch with someone like Vuckic. I'd f***ing love it.
Then make yourself start bubbling so Colo has to carry you off
Seriously though, I'd proper love to have a go at the crossbar challenge at half time. None of this zorbing tripe though. No way.
