Beer in the concourse
Pretty boy made a good point in the PM forum about the absurdity of it being criminal for you to buy a pint at a cat b Hibs v Ross County. I'd heard Hibs were trying to push against the rule but haven't heard any more?
I read Zwolle with an average attendance of 2k less than us made 6 million from food and drink last year and most of that from beer. Their football culture is probably wilder than ours with plenty of what we would call cat A games. It's ridiculous that the gov think we can't handle beer in the stadium whilst Millwall v Leeds, Cardiff v Swansea or Chelsea v West Ham manage. If nothing else its giving our teams a huge financial disadvantage in Europe

FC Twente made more money from selling beer than from selling players over the past year.
According to their 2022/23 financial report, their food and drink industry made a profit of 6m the majority of which was from beer whilst they made just 3.75m from player sales
