For those annoyed by no beer at the ground, howsabout this in the city centre during the day

The small minority ruin it for all

I'll be taking a hip flask!!

we are being treated like football fans because,some have behaved like football fans.anyway suits me,i might be able to sit down for 40 mins without people going past me for beer,then sit down for a further 40 mins without the same people going past me to go the toilet

I still remain to be convinced it will mke much difference.

If you look at the open hours of Wetherspoons, that's a mere nine hours drinking time before you take the eighty minutes away.

The phrase is "p1ssing in the wind".

And if you think it will stop the toilet trips considering all that will have gone before mixed with the nervousness, you've got another thing coming.

Im delighted.

Can't say it bothers me too much, I don't usually drink heavily before games and it might mean that I have to shovel down the couple that I get at the ground, but the rugby is the draw for me at the end of the day.

No bother to me, never fussed if I get an ale in the ground, the queues are off putting and the ale is usualy pants and expensive. Quite happy to let me pals queue up and buy me one though, but hate doing it myself !

We all have plenty of time before and after the game to sink a few beers, wines, spirits, hopefully I will be ram jammed full with ale AFTERWARDS as I celebrate a lovely GF victory , the last 3 losses has seen me probably just go home and get into some dry clothes, have a cup of hot milk and then bed

I'll be taking my bottles of coke, vodka miniatures and spare lids with me like i do every year.

Tampon boxes are the perfect size to put the vodka in and if you go to a male steward, they get all flustered when they spot it and let you go on your way, specially if they are young

Was in the leeds end last year, thanks to my wire mates having a jealous joke on me. Everyone was drinking there at the seats and no problem whatsoever - just medium to severe abuse from the leeds fans; probably would have been worse if we had won!

here here. but i know i will be sat near some moron that aint been to a game in 20 years and is shouting rubbish all through the game,getting most of the players names wrong in the process

Merged both no drinking threads.

No big deal really
