Advertising boards invade Hull vs Arsenal match

Table of Contents

A Premier League match between Hull City and Arsenal was halted on Sunday when a number of advertising boards were blown onto the pitch.

There were four minutes on the clock at the KC Stadium when the strong wind which was whistling around the ground dislodged a number of the hoardings and scattered them on the pitch.

Referee Jonathan Moss immediately halted play and some of the players helped to remove the boards from the pitch and carry them away, after which the match resumed.
