Gone are the days of them standing outside the pub with a can of coke and a packet of crisps. Remember standing outside the Hole in the Wa and the Wee Barrell on many occasions.

Suggesting it is all alcoholism is hyperbole. So far as your final sentence is concerned, that goes without saying. You have demonstrated that many times over several years now.

That is alcoholism right there. I will never understand people. I take it you weren't in Dumfries, Ayr or any of the other fine Scottish towns that offer hospitality on match days. Literally hundreds of saints fans played their part in boosting the local economies whilst enjoying a couple of beers. It's been part of football culture for years. Admittedly It is frowned upon in modern culture and the aim of every do-gooder appears to be to hammer the licensing trade and curtail the sale of the demon drink. 34 minutes ago, shull said: Very strange some Adults trying to find licensed premises that will allow their Children in.

Family pubs which encourage responsible drinking and eating so the real "bad" drinkers have no where to go. 1 hour ago, RickMcD said: Seriously a few guys might get tanked up.

I like the sound of that. Right who's for getting tanked up after the match in Paisley when we win the cup. It's not yir friend that buys you drink!

Just call a spade a spade. It's alcoholism when you cant get to a match without taking in some beer:-D That is the first time I have ever heard alcoholism justified in terms of the economic benefits to the local community. That was pretty funny :-D I also like the idea that in order to be social you need to be a pub dweller and drink alcohol. What a ridiculously over-defensive pile of tripe Ricky. Calm doon I was just having a wee loght hearted dig. Enjoy the day folks and dont get overly defensive when people laugh at your your choices.

For breakfast on a Saturday morning and desperate to find a Pub that allows children Oh dear There's absolutely no desperation from myself or any others to find a licenced premises that allows children so we can get tanked up. What a ludicrous accusation. My preference would be to find somewhere our whole group - 9 adults, 1 child - Can go together to enjoy the pre-match build up with other fans. It will let the guys who arent responsible for looking after a kid have a pint or whatever they choose and relax before we head to the game. If there isnt anywhere we can all go pre match then i have no issue in going elsewhere with the youngster and meeting up with the guys later, it's just a bit of a pain in the arse doing so. All we were looking for was a place that caters to everyone's preference and where we can all be under one roof prior to the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
