jock strap Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Any chance of that happening has sadly disappeared after today. Not saying it's alcohol related but those who can will certainly use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimstroma Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Scottish fans have watched fans invade the pitch every day for the past week in England. Don't see the media down South making huge headlines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the fighting,sectarian chanting,goals being destroyed,pitch being ripped apart,apparent assault of people at their place of work (allegedly).

tartandon Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 (edited) Last 2 high profile pitch invasions in Scotland have been after matching involving Sevco (play-off v Motherweel & cup final v Hibs). Only solution is to get rid of Sevco Edited May 21, 2016 by tartandon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Col Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I can see your point dandydunn The intoxication of fans was blamed for the 1980 cup final pitch invasion. Yet here we are 36 sober years later and we still have pitch invasions. Drink wasnt the problem. Bring back the drink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock strap Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 I was told that the Wembley invasion was because someone said they left a carry out somewhere around the goalposts ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The behaviour at Wembley in '77 didn't involve either assaulting opposition players or goading the opposition supporters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie huggins Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 alcohol is served in the stadium at every league game in scotland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Motherwell you can drink in the cooper suite until 255 and go straight back in at full time, I'm sure other clubs have a similar set up.

They won the game and still attacked the opposition players, ripped bits out the pitch and destroyed the goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree with that too. Although I rarely drink at the football anyway. Even been driving to Scotland games recently due to the ko times. It's just a matter of having the choice like at other sports and events. Although deep down I know "we" can't be trusted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's really the point. Too many people just can't have a drink without causing trouble. Scotland really does have a ridiculous drink culture.

Hertsscot Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 ...I like a beer as much as anyone but anything on sale would be generic lowest common denominator mass produced, mass marketed and over priced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
