| As a smoker, I do smoke during matches. I try not to but during some matches I find I'm puffing away alot more than usual (bulls V saints). However if I am smoking during matches, I will move away from non-smokers. I also check which way the wind is blowing my smoke and adjust either the direction I'm blowing or where I am stood if the smoke is touching anyone, smoker or not.
The law says no smoking in enclosed public spaces, which Odsal is not! However if anyone did ask me to move, hell even if they just gave me a dirty look for smoking, I'd move away. It only takes a few steps up or down to be in a more socially acceptable place to smoke.

No there is no need for you to stop attending Odsal, the club needs ever member to carry on going and so does the team.
Ok then, you answer me this:
Some people dont like the smell of beer, should there be a section for non-beer likers?

Tabbing all afternoon jeez. Buy your own!
They're not cheap you know? A packet of cigs nowadays is about 7 quid of which nearly 10 pounds goes to the treasury.
We need to smoke and booze the deficit down or we'll end up like Greece.

Have you tried blowing it in the faces of the opposition?

Ok then, you answer me this
If you like, you can make it the same as the non smoking one for me. You can smoke and drink all you like but i think 5% maximum of the terrace is nothing much to ask.

| Odsal must be the only sporting venue in the country where you are still allowed to smoke. It must only be a matter of time before it is made non-smoking I should imagine.
And I have no strong feelings either way. As a committed ex-smoker, I can see both sides of the argument. And there have been times over the last few seasons when I certainly could have used one...

Is castlefords ground non-smoking?
I think headingly is non-smoking, even though there was a lot of people round me the other week smoking.
What about wakey?
I arnt been sarcastic, i just genuinely don't know, as they are more or less the same sort of ground as odsal(no roof)

I think headingly is only a non-smoking stadium because only one side is open top, the rest has got a roof on, you've got to go near the toilets to have a cig.

| Headingley and Cas are both non-smoking. You can smoke at Wakey i believe. Headingley has been no smoking for a while now.

It is. They do spot searches when you come through the turnstyles & confiscate fags. You get them back on the way out though. Something to do with the asbestos roof apparently.

The fact of the matter is wherever you stand you can breath in smoke, so a small section of non smoking terracing shouldn't be a problem should it?
Or would you prefer it if i stopped attending matches as i have only been watching the Bulls since 1994.'"
I dont think terrace singer was even born in 1994 let alone old enough to even smoke
