Toilets closed at half time next season?

To be honest everyone can go a couple of hours without a piss, 

Nope.
Wait 'til you get over 60.

And what about if you live more than a five minute walk away? "A couple of hours" becomes three or four hours + for most if you include travel time either side. And what if you've got the shits?

Perhaps @Chris_from_Sidcup can tell us how long he thinks must pass before it becomes unacceptable for toilet facilities not to be provided? 

What are we saying, people should be able to hold their piss for 4 hours and a shit indefinitely as long as they're sitting down? Come on Chris, what's the benchmark here?

I don’t think age is as much a factor as the drinking many do before a game.

Lol, who'd have thought that eh, people wanting to enjoy a few pints with their mates before a game. tut tut.

I wasn’t judging. Just saying.

It’s only during half time.🚽

Will they be open during the water breaks?

I think you've misunderstood this greatly.

The 2 hours i mentioned was from the start of the game to the end, as they'll only be out of action at half time.

If you travel to the game from an hour away i'm sure you could take a piss at 2.55pm. If you were that desperate you could even pop down for 2 minutes during the game.

To answer your question, the toilet facilities are only not provided for a grand total of 15 minutes. No one is going to have to hold on for 4 hours.

Can’t see the toilet being closed at half time being viable. Will they lock the doors? If so, what happens if someone is still in there. If not, will they have a 16 year old steward in front of the toilet door. For 8p/h an hour would they really want the hassle of stopping people using it. 

I’ve bought my season ticket for next season but not looking forward to it. Will most likely have to wear a mandatory mask (muzzle) on the train to the ground. Have to pre book a table in a pub before a game. Won’t have any away fans to banter with. Plus, most my friends won’t get tickets if they only have 5k in the stadium. 

I believe there aren’t any locks on the doors......I can genuinely see BIG problems trying to keep out punters who are literally busting.
I think it may come to blows or similar.

So the train to the game and the pub before hand will be social distanced 😂😂

Exactly.

Earlier in the thread i said it's unlikely to be enforced. They struggle enough to stop people smoking, so there's no way a few stewards will be able to do anything if 100 people surge past them all needing a piss.

Good news and bad news:

Good news, you're not going to end up caring if the toilets are shut at halftime 

Bad news: because supporters won't be allowed in the ground next season. 

I cannot see fans being allowed into a ground before Christmas, then it will be a certain % of capacity.

Clubs will not survive without fans coming back.

I think home fans will be back Sept/Oct time with 50%-75% capacity if things progress as they are at the moment. Away fans back Jan 21.

That’s what I reckon. The fly in the ointment will be any covid outbreaks as we head into Autumn and Winter. Which is when illness isn’t rife anyway and offices etc will be opening back up

Jan 21st is a Thursday....

Put stewards at bog entrances; so many in; so many out. Shops and s'markets been doing it for months.

Leaving in plenty of time before hand , for the coach pick-up at Barnehurst.

Is there a toilet on the coach? 🚽🧻🥴

no season ticket until our ownership sorted, not even sure I’ll be going at all, the cup runneth dry..

Agree. Why give any money to these changers. 

Get steaming

Must surely give a disadvantage to clubs like
Fulham who never sing at home matches. 

Typical Daily Mail. Click bait rubbish. 

I see our friends up the road thinking ahead! When fans are allowed back in the ground tickets will be sold in blocks of two 😉
