Acid attacks. There is an increasing lot of it about. Statistically it makes sense to ban flasks. And to not explain why (or admit it is for security reasons). Exactly the same logic that resulted in a space traveller arriving in the UK in the mid 70s selecting, as an unobtrusive name to blend in: 'Ford Prefect'.
It's a tongue in cheek post, referring to HGTTG.
*Pedant alert* nicely inconspicuous
Standards must be maintained.
Agreed.Pathetic.
Acid attacks.
I think they are banned too ?Tin Pot
I think they are banned too ?
To put Flask-gate in to proper perspective shirley we must have a poll?
I'd have a stab
Flasking Section is a bit championship.After 54 pages of reading about the most important issue in the club’s history I have a suggestion :
How about the club introduce a designated area for the flaskers? For a small fee tartan blankets and squishy cushions can be made available. Reading literature can be provided for pre-match and halftime periods comprising of Baking For Pleasure, Knitting For England, Your Top 101 Recipes For Your Flask. And, as an extra bonus, for those cold winter months - the club’s own monogrammed fluffy slippers individually signed by Paul Barber. Please contact the club for further information.

Blue and white blankets surely. Why would we want that Jock stuff at the Amex?
"Aluminium metal dissolves readily in dilute sulphuric acid to form solutions containing the aquated Al(III) ion together with hydrogen gas, H2. The corresponding reactions with dilute hydrochloric acid also give the aquated Al(III) ion. Concentrated nitric acid passivates aluminium metal."
More of a danger to the Flasker than the Flaskee I would imagine
If what you want to eat or drink is for sale in the bars on the concourse or 1901 bars you are banned from bring it in is my simplistic interpretation. If it’s soup or something not on sale in the ground you still can’t bring it in. Not a money making exercise at all, but it should lengthen the already long waiting experience even further.
Are you BensGrandad?
This simply isn't true. If you are in a non-corporate part of the ground, and you want to bring in sandwiches, or a pork pie, or a Cajun chicken wrap, or bar of Cadbury's fruit and nut, or a packet of polos, you remain absolutely free to do so - just as long as you don't wish to bring them in a flask, or similar.
Stop repeating this nonsense.
As I’m in a corporate part of the ground I should just suck it up should I? I confess I didn’t know the rules were different depending on where you sat as I only picked up on the alleged 1901 new rules.
