    Ask Adam Hinchcliff, he'll probably be able to enlighten you. I have a feeling he got into bother a few seasons ago when he got stuck in a turnstile whilst carrying a large holdall stuffed with unsold Leon Knight hat masks and some prototype Gary Willard whoopee cushions, so he's pretty familiar with club policy on large bags.

    I know footy grounds can be tricky, security and all that.

    Just wanted to double check.

    So long as you don't have it filled with explosives, you should be ok.

    Funny how they don't allow carrier bags but will allow a back pack, I once took a carrier bag with a few cans of pop and a few sausage rolls in...I was forced to leave it at the turnstyle. Surely the same rule would apply to a backpack given you could take in the same "contraband"

    Fanatstic isn't it? Take the top off your bottle of pop when you buy it, but blokes can take bags full of stuff in. The guy near us had the biggest flask known to man, still a plastic bottle with a top on would hurt a lot more if thrown.

    The thing I've always thought about the bottle top is surely you can just throw the bottle that is full of liquid that would do more 'damage' than a bottle top.
