Rugger chaps can drink on the external AMEX concourse

[T soprano]

Looks the the rugger chaps are allowed to wander freely outside of the Amex with beer in hand at the rugby tonight, shame us peasant season ticket holding football fans have to be penned in like sheep in allocated area

@OfficialBHAFC: Enjoy a pint in the sun tonight in the external concourse. Fans can now walk freely with their drinks outside #BHAFC http://t.co/

Why is it that you can watch rugby internationals at Twickers with beer in hand in your seats but at Wembley or the Amex if you take a beer to your seat you'll be man handled by stewards back to designated drinking area

That is pathetic...you can drink at the madjeski in your seats.

Brighton being precious again! Be interesting if this is the same for the World Cup!

Not legally you can't. It is illegal to drink in view of the pitch.

 

[Pickles]

Always thought this was down to Thatcher ?

Probably well wrong here........

Not legally you can't. It is illegal to drink in view of the pitch.

No...only when football is on. It is a football law.

Is that just football then

So how do, London irish, wasps, twickenham, Ricoh stadium, millennium stadium, Oxford stadium, murrayfield et egg get away with it then? Are they all breaking the law...someone should be told.

 

[Terry Butcher Tribute Act]

Not sure what you're moaning about, the club have applied for this for ALL events

 

[Pickles]

No...only when football is on. It is a football law.

But only applicable to certain divisions, I believe.

Sorry, I thought that's what you were taking about.

Where does it say you can't take beer to your seats tonight?

 

[Everest]

It doesn't. The club have already said you can tonight..

 

[Driver8]

It doesn't. The club have already said you can tonight.

So there is nothing to moan about then!!

 

[Dan Aitch]

What we knew then - the Hillsborough disaster was caused by drunken fans so alcohol while watching football was banned.

What we know now - alcohol and drunken fans had nothing to do with it yet still, the law founded on Police lies and a Government conspiracy prevails.

No, like so many other things, it's down to Thatcher

You are absolutely correct also the reason you need to go up stairs from the concourse to enter the stadium you cannot look at the pitch with a beer in your hand

You can drink in your seats tonight.

The law only refers to football.

 

[Bombadier Botty]

To be fair you'd have to be under the influence to sit through a game of rugby.

 

[The Andy Naylor Fan Club]

The game is live on Sky Sports 5, so I will sit and have a beer in the comfort of my own home.

 

[Everest]

We will also be permitting the sale of alcoholic beverages within the Fan Zone and seating areas within the stadium for this fixture.
