C'est la vie... I'm pro-standing, but it was unrealistic of fans to expect the club to change it's stance on standing and in doing so challenge the powers that be; just cos we have a different ground now.
HOWEVER:
Can we lodge a counter notion opposing the sale of Pizza & Burgers during the game; because my match-day experience was significantly tainted over the weekend by being up and down CONSTANTLY to let people past to go for refreshments.
....It'd have 'happily' (see: reluctantly) conceded to a 'seated only' policy given half the fucking chance!
TBH, I couldn't give a shit if its beer, food, piss-breaks or-whatever; so this rant isn't simply about 'footy tourists'..... It's a 90min game FFS.... How little genuine interest do you fuckers have in the actual game, that you can't exist without??? It's like kids wanting a fucking ice-cream the moment they hear mention of the seaside or a piss the moment they get in the car.
Meanwhile, no provision for a smoking area in the entire site dictates that smokers (or anyone accompanied by smokers) are pretty much exiled from the idea of an after game jolly in one of the bars with the rest of the hoards.
Couldn't agree more. It simply amazes how people can't go 2 fucking hours without stuffing their faces or guzzling down a pointless HT pint. The fact that people are walking around with fucking pizza boxes I find astonishing - shit like that simply shouldn't be sold at footy stadiums.
