As supporters of non league football we are suggested you drop the newly adopted law banning the consumption of alcohol within the ground at matches.

Reasons for this include,

A drop in revenue to Non League football clubs, many of whom rely on income from bars and alcohol to help sustain the club.

Taking this enjoyment and freedom away from supporters will have a negative effect on attendances, income, and atmosphere.

Non league football clubs already have to rely heavily on outside sources to maintain the running of the club, without added pressures of the Football Authorities affecting the income to clubs and enjoyment of fans.

Please think of the damage this will cause to grass roots football.
