Stick a load of whiskey into a bottle of coke 50:50. No one can tell.

Perhaps the answer would be to reinstitute the SEAGULLS SPECIAL. You could use the preserved six coach diesel unit from St Leonards which can go virtually anywhere in the country with pick ups at Hastings, Bexhill, Eastbourne, Lewes (Perhaps Brighton) & Haywards Heath. It's even got a bar on board.

The 'Seagull Special' was dry, well meant to be anyway. Didn't stop us from stacking the cans up high.

How can they realisticaly police this? Will take hours and hours to search everyone's bags before they get on .

I have been to a few Sunderland games with dry trains - especially ones with Chelsea at home (so travelling out of London with the Chelsea fans) and they search you and your bags on the way to the train, or at least at Euston & St Panc they do, I have seen tourists with bottles of wine/spirits which are obviously sealed souvenirs taken off them on dry trains, its madness!

What about rugby fans? Whenever there is some egg chasing going on in London, trains to and from the coast are full of these ********s who seem to drink just as much as the football fans, have less humour but are somehow seen as exempt from such measures. If football fans are affected then this should be standard across all sports events.

Mainly because after having a few they don't feel like kicking the shit out of someone because they sung a song about how crap their town is...
