Shame. Oh well

Isn’t the subject matter of this whole thread a political issue?

Paralytical

I’ve enjoyed this debate and reading views different to my own on this, but I really do think this is for the best. Wasn’t broke. Didn’t need fixing.

I surrender! Can you imagine the level the standard polite clapping from the South Stand would reach if he got a direct hit!

Do you actually attend the games ?
South Stand ?
Polite clapping ?

A lot of serious debate on here, but no mentions about the risk of be scalded by boiling hot Bovril

If they're too hot to hold you can't chuck them - I would think......

Plastic bottles of water,cola or Beer .
You can buy plastic bottles of Ale and supply to those who can be trusted not to start hurling them around because they are a tw*t.
It could work if people want it too.

I've never seen ale in a plastic bottle. Sheltered upbringing?

I can live without it BUT...


as i started to think about it I think alot of peoples perceptions are based on a narrow precept.
From a practical perspective if we can effectively depressurise the half time rush and squash for the bar that might reduce queues and make the concourse less of a traffic jam.
I can go to an open air gig at a football stadium and drink in my seat..... so why not here? I dont buy the 'it'll be awkward getting past people' . Saw the Gorillaz at Spurs stadium and drinking in seats and getting past people was fine.
I don't buy that people will chuck beer either. QR codes on the backs of seats, people!
I mean if they do chuck beer and I'm wrong then back to my first reaction. I can live without it .

Just remember what could have been if you vote against next time you are stuck in a halftime horror bundle for a pint which you've then got to neck sharpish before the second half whistle blows.

Prepare yourself for the "why cant you just wait" brigade

Been said a good few times, but these two are very different events and not really comparable.

"Limbs" is inevitable going to lead to soggy limbs, if not chucked, spilt.

 

[ABEEE]

Maybe a fix would be being able to take a drink out before the game and before the second half starts, anytime in between wouldn't be allowed to be taken out.

This would be to stop the constant back and forth of course.

Someone needs to invent some kind of beer foot locker that fits under a set and get on Dragons Den.

Shame. Oh well

Only men’s football stands then?

And why extra policing? Who made that bit up?

We are just waiting for the “we can’t go 45 minutes without a beer” brigade to move over first.

Newsflash for you, both groups are boring.

Maybe don't come on the thread about drinking/not drinking if the discussion about drinking/not drinking bores you, let alone comment on it

Coming to the club shop soon.

When people stop making points and start calling those with opposing views a “brigade•, the discussion is done anyway.

Just leave then

I'm gutted that following the enlightened views of my fellow pro-alcohol Bees (& the fact there may be an earner in it supplying to all the leagues), I thought the re-introduction of this old favourite may appease both sides.
Still never mind - anybody know the Chinese for "Please cancel my order for 100,000 units"?
