We're crap at defending and stopping crosses. Sort that out and we've got a great chance of going up.
I agree with this, but ... I'm coming to the conclusion it must be a deliberate policy. We're almost willing to allow crosses to come in, or leave wide men completely unmarked, in order to have more bodies blocking shots and defending the box, and possibly to start counter-attacks. It's a slightly Russian roulette style of play, though. The heart attack football we were promised, only a year late. And -- by and large -- it's working. It's certainly entertaining.

If drinking was allowed in the stand, I see a HUGE major problem, people would be constantly up & down to get drinks, needing a piss, get a drink, need a piss, get more pissed, than is necessary at a game.
I do think the laws stupid as you can drink at major sports in America & it’s great, I’d love to be able to sit down with a pint, but it’s always a minority who spoil it for the rest.
Unfortunately it should stay as it is!
Sport in the states, like cricket here, has a constant flow of breaks which means people being up and down all the time like you say isn't a problem, agree with everything you've said
 
It's become a massive thing here to chuck beer in the air when a goal is scored, all started with videos of Boxpark in London when England were playing in tournaments.
Used to be a massive thing to throw toilets rolls onto the pitch when a goal was scored too. That fad came and went as the throwing beer in the air will.
Better than throwing punches as it was in the 70's.
 
There’s a group of lads on the same row as me and they must all go for a piss about 5-8 times per half.
I feel for you boys…been there wore so many tee shirts..****ing bladders lol, just re-read your post, I saw half an hour…still pertinent to me mind…

Do you know I was musing that on top of the No. 5 from Prinny Avenue to Kingswood, on Saturday afternoon. It might not sound that mad. BTW...I got on the bus at around 3pm and finally got to Kingswood at 4.15pm. Hull traffic is as mental as ever.

They might not be going in the loo for a piss...

All huddled round in a cubicle snorting gear from someone’s house key is an even sadder situation than grown men having the bladder of a 5-year-old.

I don’t care if they’re pissing or doing coke, it gets on my tits. Anyone doing cocaine during daylight hours in a wrongun anyway.
