On another thread about people leaving early someone mentioned half times, it seems to me that we try to cram in about 30 minutes worth of stuff into 15 minutes, or expect stadiums to be able to feed, water and entertain people in that time.

Should this not be looked at again because its never going to work.

Has anyone ever died from hunger or thirst during a football match?

Why is there this strange need to eat a pie at 4:45 on a Saturday, do people have the same need during the Summer months?

Perhaps we should make halftimes 30 minutes or 5 minutes.But at 5 minutes there could be trouble in the bogs.
 
Re: Half Time.

Personally thonker i cant think about food on match days - i get too nervous !

The first time i eat on match days is about 5-30 when i get home from the game..

Win, lose or draw my missus always makes a lovely tea on a saturday which i always look forward to !!

Mind you, it always tastes better if we've won !!!!!!!

I've never seen anyone eating a pie at Deepdale at 4.45 on a Saturday 🙄 I usually can't see a thing at 4.45 for all the barstewards leaving early.

My 7 year old lad went for a pie at 5 past 3 last Saturday. He has to have a pie on the game. I've never seen him eat one anywhere else though.

Re: Half Time.

I personally have something to eat BEFORE the match, dinner i think they call it and then AFTER the match i go home and have my tea. Then i go out for a few pints. BINGO.🙄
