Think banning alcohol is probably too much. I got the train from Sheffield at 8am and people were getting tanked up at the station at 7.30 so that won't solve anything. Horns, spot on. Nightmare. Add nothing to an atmosphere and leave you with a headache.

Some utter clowns there today but where aren't there any at big sports events? Still a great event for me.

Hate horns they remind me of the vuvuzela from the football world cup in 2010.

I say alcohol because people are constantly going to the bar, then the toilet, bar, toilet. Then when the Mexican wave started (...) beer was spilled over people. I missed a lot of the action standing up for people drinking. Can people really not go 80 mins without drinking?

Banning wouldn't work, saw 2 lads get on the tram with a full box of fosters, and I bet most where tanked before the game started as you mentioned.

Has to be a limit of the amount you can drink but how can you police it if 4 guys each 1 buys 4 pints you will have no idea who is drinking what, so an issue there.

I think the OP means the constant stream of people desperate to relieve themselves or get to the bar, and the pointless drone from horns.

I was on the end of a row and spent most of the game either standing up for people or craning my neck to see round people going to the exit.

That said, I'm not going to complain. I'd rather stadiums felt at ease enough to allow alcohol and horns at seats. I had a couple of beers at my seat and enjoyed them thoroughly. icon_smile.gif

Horns, on the other hand...

The Horns were extremely annoying. I know people go to enjoy themselves, and i don't want to sound like a dour, wet lettuce, but why?!

I'd been up since about 6ish for this game, and by the time i'd got back to my train, after what i can describe as Abysmal service by Manchester Trams and Trains, all i wanted to do was go home, but i had the pleasure of having a kid, blowing it right down my ear for a blooming hour! MY GOD.

Alcohol, however, i don't think it's necessary to ban it, I think what separates Rugby League with other 'top elite' sports, is it's friendliness, that alcohol can be permitted in seats, whereas football does not allow this. People can drink beforehand, it's all about limiting yourself, sadly, 74,000 can behave themselves, it only takes 400 to ruin it.

But it's a minor quibble. Ban Horns though.

Must admit the Oz v Fiji match at Wembley was ruined for me - a bunch of drunks took seats near us after the stadium thinned out after the England game. One or other were in and out past us literally every minute. Just made it pointless staying.

Horns. Take them outside and crush them.

Alcohol. Plastic glasses if you must, bottles a crazy idea. Accident waiting to happen. Much more disturbance with people traipsing out than at a Man U game where drinking is confined to nonplaying time.

Didn't gat an answer when I asked Radford how much he paid Stokes to save his job.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_4438.jpg



Had a compete and utter gobe behind me. There were about 6 blokes all late 40s I would say, they weren't drunk but this one bloke did not shut up all game with juvenile comments which his mates thought were hilarious but peed everyone in ear shot right of. Thank god he went to the bar with 20 to go and didn't come back. Closest I have come to lumping someone at a RL match.

I had two bottles of Singha during the game, one gained before the game and one at half time and sipped and enjoyed the game


And ban those ******* horns

I don't think some people can enjoy anything without a drink, as a teetotaller I don't understand the need to drink, I have as much fun as anyone else and I don't miss anything as I'm not going to the bar every 20 mins or so.

It's not difficult, have non alcohol areas.
