    Forgot to mention that they were selling ale in the betting kiosk at the S****horpe game. Quite possibly the crappest thing I have ever seen. It was actually worse than doing nothing at all, but it's probably the best we are going or get.

    I just can't understand the reluctance to make these necessary changes.

    Think yourselves lucky you can get a drink at the game.
    Because of the antisocial antics of the old firm fans 35 years ago all alcohol was banned from Scottish grounds. Even in hospitality you still can't get an alcoholic drink at half time.
    You may not be too impressed with the bar but at least you have one.

    Did I see correctly was it £3.50 for lager, bitter and cider out of a can into a placcy pot?

    Wow £3.50 for a tin of lager.
    At that price they could keep it. Rather wait 90 minutes and get a pint in a pub at a more realistic price.

    Never understood this, the people who get pissed and cause trouble at games arent getting pissed due to 1 or 2 pints at the game..

    and the new Rekorderlig Cider box, located in the Direct Golf UK Stand. This is directly opposite the Britannia Rescue Stand, immediately adjacent to the Fantastic Media Stand.

    I was at the America's Cup Pavilion the other night on the Bay in San Francisco for a concert. The beer was $11.50 in a plastic cup, plus the usual tip over here, which makes it $12.50. It's also an American pint, so it is only 16oz. £3.50 sounds like a bargain.
