Corky Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Get something to drink - go to the pub, drink at home for free, bring your own. Watch televised match downstairs - People do have Sky, watch football focus or yet again stay at the pub I stay on here until the lines ups are announced, give my view then leave for the football at about 2.25-2.30, then get there for 2.45 or 2.50. Easy! So why are you so upset about this offer then, if you weren't going to be there at that time anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halferowley2 Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 They did this last season I arrived in the east stand and this young girl was trying to give vouchers out and everyone just ignored her I took one and claimed me free drink it was 2.30 for a 3pm kick off.

Easy! I have Sky Sports at home and I could bring my own drinks (As I've said earlier the pub isn't an option for me, I'm not old enough to drink and no one I go with would particularly want to). But to say it's sad to arrive at that time when all you're doing is posting on Foxes Talk and doing exactly the same thing as me at a different location is a bit over the top isn't it?

kingfox Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 I'll just refer back to my initial post on the first page, some people can't set off at that time. What Mark said, I agreed with, and I can relate to that. We arn't all the same, and I personally would rather be at the ground instead of sitting on here until half past two. Yes people leave at different times to others, but for people living far away, they don't have to turn up at 1.30-2.00 every week. I just can't see the point in turning up 1 hour and 30 mins early for a football game, there is literally no point. So why are you so upset about this offer then, if you weren't going to be there at that time anyway? I just think it's pointless, if you want a hot drink bring your own, will taste much better, and will be warmer in a flask. Also how is a soft drink going to warm people up. Plus these 2,000 free drinks makes people look poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't post on Foxes Talk, I do other things as well. Get ready and watch the football on Sky. Only put a few comments on here before match day, will give 1 or 2 views on the match thread then go to the match. Also in weather like this, I don't know how people can sit/stand around for 1 hour 30 mins, pointless at this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an offer you wouldn't normally get so take it up. 2,000 free drinks makes people look poor? They aren't nicking it from the canteen, it's an offer set by the club.

Mark_w Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Plus these 2,000 free drinks makes people look poor. How so? Unless you're really, really paranoid about looking poor you wouldn't think that. I don't see what your problem is, are you genuinley going to look for people taking up the free drink they've been offered and think 'wow, how poor must that guy be to accept a free drink they've been offered by the football club', now that is sad.

Larry_LCFC Posted 21 December 2012 Author Share Posted 21 December 2012 Could put on these free drinks for better use. Anyway this ridiculous now, so I am shutting up. I was thinking the exact same thing. Only Foxestalk could turn a club giving 2000 free drinks away into a massive drama with conspiracy and ulterior motives. Jesus people. Lighten up its christmas!

Fox92 Posted 21 December 2012 Share Posted 21 December 2012 Kingfox, I don't seem to disagree with you that much, but I don't know what you're argument is. The club have offered us something decent for once, can't argue with it, especially considering the prices. If you're not in the ground then ok, but people will be and can take advantage of the offer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem, it's more of a thing turning up at 1.30-2.00 which I seem pointless, plus it's better if people brought their own drinks, who would want to drink the shit they have at football grounds, after the bottom of the cup doesn't look very nice. i survived the end of the world and now this.

I'll probably get there early and I'll be having a tango. I'd be bringing in a Fanta instead of a similar free drink. It's a couple of thousand free drinks, I don't know why you've decided to turn this into a giant ****ing argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
