There you have it bluegtagagain, ‘decent toilets / food and drink facilities’ ‘wi-if’, seats etc.’.
I don’t go to the football for the bogs, the food or the wi-fi (why the feck do you need wi-fi?), I go to watch the match. As for the seats, you spend most of the time standing up where I ‘sit’, so who really gives a feck about the seat?
All you really need is a decent pitch, decent floodlights and a roof to keep the rain off. The food and drink in grounds is always average and overpriced, so I usually patronise local hostelries instead. Actually we could do with some decent real ales but that is a pipe dream methinks .
I don’t know why some of the younger element bother going to the match, they miss the start and end of both halves buying food and drink, then spend most of the match on their mobiles taking selfies or fecking posting on one social media site or another.
It should be: pub, match, pub IMO .
