    No Spicy Bean pies at all - even though it was on the menu.
    My vegetarian wife was less than impressed after 10 minutes in the queue at 12:10

    The toilets are a disgrace - not enough for the men and they might as well not have any for the women.

    And don't get me started on getting out of the ground ...

    GE was that your own personal banner we saw on Saturday?

    I have had the privilege of attending many of the "larger" stadia throughout the UK, not always football related , and Saturday reaffirmed the dearth of facilities at our "national" stadium.In the gents at my section there was 3 troughs which could handle at most 4 men at the same time, 3 sitty doon stalls 2 sinks and 2 hand driers, for a section that contained approximately 2/3000 people .At RP the number of people one toilet in the East stand can accommodate is at least 5x that.We live in a northern European climate for gods sake, we drink like fish, our team demands that we leave our ablutions to the last possible second lest we miss anything and to get to the genital area through 3/4 layers,with gloves on, is like a version of Total Wipeout in the dark,so you'd think the authorities would be up on this.

    Nevermind it should be at least 2 degrees warmer in March

    'Hampden Park is a No Smoking Stadium...................except in the toilets'

    I know at H/T the queues came almost to the back rows and certainly seemed take longer for people get served than at Scotland games. Anyone who goes to any matches during the Olympics least they should see a better game footie than we did!
