Alcohol in the stands?

Govt looking to review whether to allow drinking in sight of the pitch at designated football matches.

Good idea?

Personally I dont want to be showered in weak lager every time we score by someone recreating boxpark for clicks.

I can see it creating issues on a terrace where social norms are already ignored by some.

I can drink before, at halftime and after a game. Going 45 minutes without one isn't an issue. We are all used to it now. Same as not smoking in the ground (fatty vape man is still an issue for Wasp I guess)

But serving drinks to grown ups, probably at a premium rate, in a designated premium seating area, and leaving the blinds open on boxes is a reasonable cash generating idea and shouldn't create stewarding issues.

But men with bladders the size of golf balls shuffling past people to go for a wee every 15 minutes will be more of a bloody nuisance than it is now.
