Afrank, it's not bollocks, it's the rules. One sticker per side and none on the front of the hopper, and especially no stickers that are designed to look like a hit. Put it this way, if a ref comes running across the field and tells you that you are eliminated on your hopper, pulls you from the game and sends you on your merry way to the dead box, only to have you as a player screaming blue murder at the ref that it's a sticker and is solely responsible for ruining your life as only a baller would, then who is really to blame for the ref's little foible, YOU FOR THINKING YOUR HOPPER LOOKS SO BAD PLASTERED WITH DUMB ARSED STICKERS.

That's why the rules state one per side. It's also the very same reason why clear shells were banned, multi coloured paint in these type of hoppers from a distance were a ******* to ref.

BUT, they don't state in the UKM rules available on the website regarding the number of stickers. So I can understand the confusion if a ref tells someone that they have 'too many stickers' on their hopper.

The only reference to stickers on hoppers is this:

"9.17 Stickers on markers and Loaders are allowed but must not look in any way like a shot. If a referee feels that any sticker looks like a hit and will cause him problems he can ask the player to remove it failure to do so will result in elimination of the offending player. Colours of stickers may not contain the colour orange."

I dont have a single sticker on mine anyway, so doesn't really affect me either way.
