Whats the best way to report it? Thought about going to a steward but then I'd have to point out people who are not in their right mind which could end badly.

Tricky one, but you confront it, or ignore it. Usually they’re too embarrassed to argue from past experience.
Which ‘drugs’ are you referring to.

Out of interest, are the ceilings exposed or tiled?

I must say I find this very disturbing. Not living in the town I guess I have a vision of it frozen in the past. Why would you need to be coked up to enjoy a football match? As for Gerry's question: how about writing a letter to the club so they can instruct their staff to be extra vigilant regarding this?

It’s never widespread but it stands out to thos who know, and yet most people are unaware of it going on around them.

mandrake.. "Whats the best way to report it? Thought about going to a steward but then I'd have to point out people who are not in their right mind which could end badly."

..suggest you e-mail club as below..mark it f/a/o supporters liaison officer giving details of game and which bog you are on about etc...its a health and safety as well as a criminal matter..the club are under a legal duty to take appropriate action and not to ignore such an issue..

Good luck with an answer, I emailed the club twice and didn’t even receive an acknowledgment.

it never is, surely a pre-requisite of chandy’s job. Maybe he gives that to someone else to do as well

by what i have been told i really doubt its as rife as it is in pubs and nightclubs where having a piss seems a secondary passtime in the bogs. if anyone does see it at the vic just pass it on to a steward and leave it in their hands to what they wish to do. you have done your part .

Unless you have the misfortune to sit next to one who starts chatting shit at a break neck speed for the next half hour.

As the police still have a presence in the ground at the control room surely the club should pass it on so it can be dealt with as I am sure drug taking in a public area must be an offence. I do not believe the club wold ignore any such information orr fail to act on it.

I was at the last match and there was a bloke called Charlie consuming some coke in the bogs.
He was a fat bastard on a diet so i assume it was zero coke. :obscene-smokingpimp:

The english language is strange where one word has three meanings all of which are completely different. sctatchinghead

It would definitely cure their coke problem……. and every other problem come to that.

The question is...who and how is bringing it in
Perhaps you could hide some in H'angus's massive costume...

Remember at Crystal Palace they had sniffer dogs at the turn style areas checking everyone for illegal substances if positive the police were involved.
