Couldn't make it up

[Pretty pink fairy]

Joins the end of a long list of draconian anti-drinking measures based on the attitude: "if you drink, you're likely to commit a crime". Therefore, any solution involves preventing drinking where possible. Of course, nobody can prevent a pub selling beer, so the inevitable result is the encouragement of binging at peculiar hours of the day.

"Proactive" law enforcement such as this is not law enforcement at all, it's just meddling in people's affairs with only a set of stereotypes as moral justification. It's lazy, and often counter-productive.

Why do you have to be sober to watch a football match?

Because otherwise you would be over the limit when driving home.

No, it's not. It's the football which is the fun. Or do you like going to football as a means to getting drunk? (And I'm no teetotaller.)

Football is fun. Drinking is fun. Combine them for double fun. Simples.

What about non professionals then? Presume they can walk around the stadium in an anticlockwise direction before and after the match whilst completely pissed, singing anti palace songs at the top of their voices without fear. Ah... the good old days of football

Luckily I am a builder in his late thirties, my life has already been destroyed!

The club email is nothing if not patronising. Next they'll be telling us to do up our shoe laces and have a wee before leaving the house to head to the match.

getting on it saturday night, not going to sleep, am going to be battered come kick off

You have my full support, finally some sense on here!

 

[hybrid_x]

wow, the police move the game to midday thinking it will be quiet......but on a sunday tons of people get home around 7am from a night out, and will just crack on - a very messy recipe.......very messy.....just shows how out of touch some authorities are......
..............and letting all the palace out at the final whistle........i say it here once - some people are going to get hurt - take the precautions you feel are good for you - whatever they may be (join in, stay on concourse, leave early etc).

Are we 100% sure that the bars will be open at 'the bowl' before kick-off? Any chance that the 'unreasonable drinking' crackdown will end up with 28,000 people rattling around 'the bowl' with no alcohol on sale before the game? Hopefully a stupid question, but one worth asking anyway IMHO. Just in case, like.

Presumably you already have!

I am a bit worried about this as I have seen no official announcement that alcohol will be on sale. I plan on getting to the ground for 10:30 and will not be happy if it is a dry bar!
