Well I might have solved the problem for the female contingent of our fan base for those whose cake baking skills are not up to scratch, and as long as they don't look obviously post menopausal.

Good idea, but I can't imagine the stewards daring to question anyone carrying these shirley?

 

[Algernon]

Will there be flask carrying protests?
What's going to happen to all the seized flasks?
Will you get a unique i.d. number to allow you to reclaim it on your way out or will there be flask bins so the club can take them to Richardsons for ££££ ?

1. Yes, hopefully.
2. They will stick a seagull on them and sell them in the club shop.
3. No, see (2) above

Don't be so sure!!, can't remember the exact details now, but I think there was an example of a male steward asking a lady to lift her top up so he could see her bra before entering the stadium.

Here have just googled and found the story!

Grimsby Town fans made to show bras to Stevenage stewards
At least 10 football supporters including a 70-year-old woman had to raise tops for security searches, a fans’ group says

Josh HallidayFirst published on Mon 21 Aug 2017 13.30 BST
Female football fans were left “shocked and stunned” when they were made to show their bras during security searches at Stevenage football club, a supporters’ group has said.

At least 10 Grimsby Town supporters had their bras checked by stewards before the League Two sides met on Saturday, according to the Mariners Trust.

A 70-year-old woman was among those left “mortified” by the searches outside Stevenage FC’s Lamex Stadium, the Guardian understands.

The English Football League said on Monday it was looking into the allegations. A spokesman for Stevenage FC said it was conducting an investigation.

In a letter sent by the Mariners Trust to Stevenage FC, the Grimsby Town fan group said female supporters were asked to lift up their tops to show their bras to female stewards in view of other supporters, including men and male stewards.

The group said the “gross invasion of privacy” went further when some female stewards asked to feel supporters’ bras if they confirmed that they were underwired. “This act would effectively constitute a sexual assault and these types of searches are unlawful,” the group said in its letter.

A spokesman for Hertfordshire police, which polices the Lamex Stadium, said it was looking into the allegations.

Well you can't be too careful. Perhaps he suspected her of wearing one of these....

Children do not get searched going into the stadium, they could be carrying anything "in this day and age".
Can PB please address this serious gaping hole in the stadium security and ban children with immediate effect.
Demanding for a friend.......cheers

Yes, but strictly no openers.

 

[durrington gull]

Arrogant approach by the club I’m afraid- are we now going to get stopped for bringing in own sweets/crisps etc!!??, boycott buying from the ground- simple

 

[Willy Dangle]

I shall be bringing these from now on.

I get to the Amex reasonably early. I buy a tea and there’s no queue. I drink it.

I really don’t understand the fuss.

The tea is disgusting. The best that can be said is that it's wet and warm.

And not everyone has the chance to get there early and crucially that won't help anyone getting a half time drink anyay.

If you would like tea, take a couple of your favourite tea bags and just ask for the hot water in the cup.
Or would that be considered eating/drinking stuff not purchased in the stadium.

 

[Raleigh Chopper]

You could take a tea bag, water and cold milk in, I wonder if you can also take an electric kettle?

Sorry didn't see your post.
I don't have an electric kettle so I would need to take my gas cooker in with me and wait for the kettle to whistle.
Am I allowed to do that?
