Fair point about smoke and yes that may help.

Incidentally does anyone else have to wash their clothes about 20 times after going to 'The Bridge' , now that is smokey.

When I was a smoker I wondered what all the fuss was about but since giving up I cannot believe how much I notice the smell on my clothes when I've been to the pub.

I don't see a problem with making the bar no smoking as people can smoke in the ground anyway (except in the main stand of course!)

Living up here in Scotland I can tell you the smoking ban is a Godsend - it makes a huge difference. If you still want tobacco, try snuff!

Well smoking ban has been in place for nearly three years now here in Ireland and I for one am amazed at how well it has worked (the ashtrays still come out during lock-ins in selected pubs) given the high number of smokers in this country at the time. As an aside it has given rise to a whole new form of social interaction called 'smirting'. Smokers go outside the pub for a smoke and flirt at the same time (even non smokers have started coming out for the craic....no dirty pun intended).

 PLUS the additional complications caused by the potential reverberations from the Oxford away fixture.

I received the following email from Grahame Rowley yesterday:


"Sorry its taken me so long to reply but I have been doing a bit of investigating.
I also brought the subject up at the Board meeting last night
 
For licencing purposes, we need to apply 4 weeks in advance for a special licence (thus no good for the York game). We then also need to allocate a specified and enclosed area which may prove difficult.
 
We are going to contact other catering people to try and have more catering vans in situ on those two games - awaiting developments
 
many thanks for your ideas/thoughts - always delighted to hear from people as sometimes the obvious things get by-passed with so many other things to do
 
Thanks once again
Grahame"
