A change of policy on bottle tops in home ends. They’ve got enough cctv to identify racist / homophobic chanting but the same system isn’t recognised as a control / deterrent to stop luzzing


Wembley has the same bottle top policy, and I was told by someone who is involved in match day security there, that the reason for the ban is if it came to having an emergency evacuation, they wouldn’t want full bottles of water rolling around for people to accidentally step on, breaking/spraining ankles etc, thereby slowing the evacuation.l did question him about the likelihood of that scenario being a good enough reason, but, he insisted it was seen as a serious hazard.

Don’t shoot the messenger, it’s only what I was told.

Flasks so at half time in the winter I can take in ox tail soup for half time consumption.

The hotdogs at the Amex are solid enough to be considered at the same threshold Shirley?

In the last few Goldstone years, during the winter months I would take a flask of coffee with a splash of brandy in it, that I would share with the 3 other regulars that stood by the same barrier.

By the time the warmer weather came if I’m honest, it was more brandy than coffee.

Cheapo cooking brandy tastes as good in strong coffee as Hennessy, or Couvoisier VSOP.

I would improve the transport connections. Trains are insufficient and overcrowded, park and ride buses it's not much fun waiting for hours in potentially appalling weather. If the connections were more reliable you wouldn't get the exodus of fans on 80 minutes. Surely we should be cheering the team right to the final whistle and beyond
