I understood it was illegal to drink in view of the pitch!

All of the games so far has shown fans drinking in the crowd. Holding pint/ litre glasses

So is this just the uk where we can't drink? But other countries fans can drink in the stands!

I saw that too. Not fair (for us, 'wee snivelling recidivist Brits'), is it? :shrug:

Got it in one.

We are the most regulated country in the civilised world. I thought that was widely known.

We can barely take a shit without filling out a permit.

Law in this country, brought in to tackle hooliganism


About time this was lifted as football has changed for the better

We could do with banning chewing gum, levying fines for jaywalking........

And making eye contact. FFS! I fell asleep for 10 minutes while a old academic droned on at me when I was jet lagged. Becase he never made eye contact he never knew...

Agree about the chewing gum, though. Caning is too good for the ********. :lolol:

It is probably illegal to shit in view of the pitch in most countries.

I thought it was universally illegal to smoke in football stadiums, then I saw Diego Maradona watching the Argentina game smoking the fattest cigar I've seen in my life.

That is correct, British laws only apply in Britain, and other countries have there own... Will tomorrow's thread be about what different types of money other countries use? Or maybe why they don't all speak the same language as us? :dunce:

I remember attending a barca game with my daughter and peeps were drinking in the stands. She popped out to get a couple of beers and came back empty handed as they only sold alcohol free drinks.

Crap! I forgot to get a poop permit!

Or is it "Poop! I forgot to get a crap permit?"

Or Holy #2! I forgot to get a solid elimination permit.

Smoking is banned at all the stadiums in Russia. Maradona is a naughty boy.

At least in England we can drink in the concourses. I'm pretty sure in Scotland even concourse beers are banned for domestic football games.
