| Are sponge fingers allowed, both the Mr Kipling and foam hand variety??? Maybe this will confuse the RFL who may need to put up notices at both the food bar concession units and merchandise stands to state their intentions on the matter.
Also, what if fans are under the influence of a hypnotist????

| Chanting at or near the resonant frequency of the stadium, irrespective of what that may be in Hz, is strictly forbidden as this may damage the structure of the stadium.
Instead chanting shall not be done in unison due to the problem of increase in amplitude of vibration at resonance and the possible collapse of the stadium.
Chanting shall therefore be done on an individual basis, not collectively, and in a phased way so as to minimise risk.
Chanting shall also be done in a muted way so as to further reduce risk.
Also each supporter will have to have completed a risk assessment form to demonstrate that they have taken the duties and responsibilities of being a supporter and all that that may entail into account.
Research has shown that supporting cannot be treated in the same casual way it once was. Although supporting still comes with certain rights, albeit very limited, more importantly supporting comes with important responsibilities.
Supporters lose sight of these new changes at their peril!
Anyway, no doubt we will think of more ways to improve your safety at matches, but until such times please be careful and above all enjoy yourselves responsibly.
Yours
Very pernickety
A. Jobsworth

| Quote: Jemmo "my favourite one is about need a fire certificate for a flag'"
This applies to those huge flags which go across the crowd NOT the little 5x3 flags you can buy online etc. Applied to all grounds. Even Wembley tell you "5x3" or "big flag with certificate" (funny that they dont appear to be able to cope with anything inbetween.)
