Do barnsley fc save the coke bottle tops after they have taken them off?

i thought it was such a waste to throw them away

 

I earn four pounds an hour selling you your pie. I don't care what happens to the bottle tops.

 

4 bloody quid? is that not illegal

 

Knobrock Tyke wanted the bottle-top so that he could try to get BFC some more transfer funds in the 'Win A Player' thing that Coke do.

The person serving him refused to give him the bottle top, and didn't know what happened to the them. Knobrock Tyke took much umbrage.

That's the gist of this thread.

 

Think they just bin them.

The bottle tops are supposed to be taken off to stop people from throwing them at the players.

 

It's not the tops that have the code on,

it's the labels.

 

RE: Think they just bin them.

It's daft that they take them off so we can't throw them.

Couldn't we just drink the coke then throw the bottle?

 

Bottle doesn't travel as far

when empty, or without the top for balance so I'm led to believe!

 

RE: Bottle doesn't travel as far

Suppose thats a good point.

Which other clubs make them take the bottle tops off?

It proper pisses me off, especially when I noticed that they didn't do it at Wednesday.

I only ever get half a bottle because I end up spilling it at some point in a game.

 

Surely

It's because the top keeps the liquid in and a bottle full of liquid would hurt a lot more and fly a lot further?

 

I take my own bottle tops.

Then I buy some pop & fit the top that I've craftily hidden in my pocket.
I then throw the full bottle at Nardiello.

I'm not a real welder.
Or a Butcher.

 

Do what mum does

take a bottle top, from home,in your pocket!

 

RE: Do what mum does

That's a good idea!

Can't believe I never thought of it though

(doh)

 

RE: I take my own bottle tops.

That's also a good idea (Y)

 

The other option ...

... take your own food & drink.
It costs a fraction of the price charged in the ground.
I find that if I plan to throw my food & drink at our own players ... that I don't want to be paying over the odds.
I purchase in bulk & ensure that my tins of sweetcorn are chucked at our players during live televised matches.
I plan to lob an entire hamper at Grant McCann this weekend, still in the basket.

Yours in sport,

You should be shot.
Not just for wearing that hat either.

 

I bought nitro-scrambled egg and bacon ice-cream instead of a pie on Saturday, with snail porridge instead of Bovril.

I peeled the label from the porridge container and texted the code to Heston Blumenthal's 'Win Some Unlikely-Sounding Food For Your Club' competition.

Robbie Williams apparently enjoyed roast foie gras, crystallised seaweed, and rhubarb and oyster vinaigrette after training this morning.
