That’s fair enough mate.I go to the rugby league in the Summer when there’s no football and alcohol in the stands is a nightmare. Same as being on the main floor in front of a stage at a gig. Knob heads throwing full pints in the air with no care who they land on.
Plus people in and out and in and out all game going to the bar and bringing multiple beers back spilling them all over people’s shoes on the way. I look after my footwear, don’t want beer all over them.
I hope beers in the stands never makes a come back in football in England
I hate having beer, or worse chucked on me at a concert. But a gig where everyone is sober and people just have a pint in between the support acts or the encore, would probably be pretty boring.
It’s getting to that stage now at home games. Unless it’s like the Liverpool game where there’s loads riding on it, it’s pretty tame and pretty boring atmosphere wise
If say they allowed beer to be drunk in the stands in certain areas, say the South Stand, I do think it would help to make the atmosphere better.
There’s a fine line between a passionate atmosphere and it tipping over in to lairyness, but I think if you restricted it to certain areas where everyone knows what they’re signing up for, it could be a good thing.
