Exactly my thoughts.

However, I've been at English grounds when the bar areas have been rammed so there must be a demand for it.

You don't have to buy it and drink it you know.

Over a long enough period of time, we'd probably make hundreds of millions.

FACT.

As long as they sell Strongbow for Hutchy

We should give it away as a thank you to the fans.

I like your thinking. :-)

[MSK]

Pint & a nip for season ticket holders ...

[Glory Lurker]

Against, but then again I don't think they should have the half time smoking thing in the East, either

[Hermit Crab]

Think this could be a bad idea. I suspect alcohol would not be for sale when it's a cat A game.

how much dearer are the prices down south compared to the prices in the pubs around the grounds ?
if the price was 20p -50p more would it stop fans buying them knowing that the profit would be going to the club.
it would affect the pubs round the ground 30 mins to KO cause punters would have the "1 more before KO" inside the ground

[Dashing Bob S]

Anything that keeps the Jakey element who can't go without alcohol for two hours happy is probably a highly desirable social development.

Can't see it will make much difference to the drink fuelled erseholes that already blight the game.

Why ? and why ? Alcohol is sold at the stadium already and in dozens of pubs nearby ,the stadium only opens an hour before kick off. How much bevvy can be consumed in an hour, if it is stewarded correctly it should be no problem whatsoever.

I imagine that prices will be significantly higher than that. Think concert prices and certainly in excess of £4 a pint.

Also, I think that the alcohol contract will be put out to tender, just like the catering is. The higher prices, therefore, will not benefit Hibs.

[iwasthere1972]

Should only be sold to fans who don't have weak bladders and certainly not to the over 65's. I already make way half the match for folk going a pie. a pee or just leaving early.

Just how much drink do people need to watch football.

I'm out.

Over the last three or four years, drinking alcohol should have been compulsory whilst watching Hibs.

[tartanhibee]

I would rather have standing back than alcohol.

I believe it was but just for the managers and their assistants. Especially the last couple of drunks we had.

how much is a pint in the pubs around the ground ?
if its out to tender then its more £ to the club , they wont give the tender away for nout

[NORTHERNHIBBY]

Hope this goes nowhere unless they also bring back standing areas. Effin pain already doing musical chairs with folk needing in and out for pies and coffee. Pints and the the inevitable Lillian twenty minutes later will be a nightmare.

Can't see it will change those that drink and need a pish already do so anyway.
