I'm normally one of the first in the rounds of puns. But I refuse to take a lead this time.

I know there are some who just don't appreciate them, and it's given me paws for thought. I'll probably just sit back and see what others come up with. Don't want to end up in the doghouse.

Anyway, so long as my pun chums come up with some wordplay with a decent pedigree I'm sure it'll be fine.

I've got an idea Spaniel Spaniel could get involved!

Do you use a red bus rover ticket to get to games?

I've got a bone to pick with whoever thought of this pun nonsense.

You'll never sing that. Do you get a trophy for that etc etc...

I'm safe standing
Better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor
Feeling like a Tottenham Yid.

I'm still standin' - yeah yeah yeah

I've no issue with this at all, it's the most pointless, dumbest rule fans have had imposed on them for as long as I can remember.

But if anyone thinks this is a green light to chuck your pint in the air when we score and ruin my threads just be prepared to meet the fury of hell upon you.

Interesting.

The point you raise about pints being thrown is a good one, because you can easily see it happening, and constantly going to the bar for another one through the entire match is one too.

Perhaps limiting the amount that can be bought at a time might help (but then that means more people in each queue, potentially) and closing the bars 10 minutes before kick off, then opening 10 minutes before half time, or something like that, could limit the amount people get through and the amount they go to the bar?
 
I’m completely against drinking in the actual stadium - certainly in the PL. It’ll get messy, people will behave like idiots, and pints will be thrown. No need for it. The game is two lots of 45 minutes. You don’t have to be eating and drinking throughout. It’s all about trying to make more money out of fans and the Americanisation of sport.

I just can't stand this desire to chuck a pint of beer in the air, fucking hate it and I will lose my shit if someone covers me with theirs. They don't do it when they've got a coffee, tea or coke in their hands, what's the special thing about beer?

You make some good points. I guess the best thing would be to serve whilst still sat in your seats, would have to be in plastic bottles I guess or we are back to spilling it all over others as they are passed down the row?? But find a solution here where no one leaves their seats/stand has no queuing, guess there's an app that can be used to make your order with seat number. (This is why I will not become a millionaire as I give all the ideas to others lool).

My main issue with this is that it will lead to tourists and cunts getting up every 15 minutes and going to the bar, thus being a pain in the arse to those around them. It happens at Welsh rugby internationals. It's why I'm glad they introduced a 'no-alcohol' zone in the principality stadium. It meant most people in that section actually stayed in their fucking seats and watched the entire game.

Can easily drink before and after the game, no problem at all. But why would you pay £60 quid (and the rest!) to constantly go get beers!

I totally agree with you. I watch Harlequins and any England games I can get to and it’s a real pain in the arse the constant up and down to let people in and out to get to the bar. They seldom wait for a break in play and there are plenty of those in rugby. Why pay £7 for a pint of average beer from a plastic glass anyway

If they’re not being thrown in the air pints will be on the floor getting kicked over all the time. Would have been slightly better if the seats had cup holders, but on balance I’d leave it as is.

What next, giant dustbins of popcorn, pick & mix and bring your dog/cat/hamster day?

Plus getting up every 10 minutes for another piss.
