Because I know as my club we play at schools for home games so we dont have bar facilities and its ridiculous for the opposition to not be allowed to bring a carton. I know we wouldnt dare report someone for it, so long as they clean up any potential mess, which even still we would take up with the club directly and leave the league out of it
It's all grounds. We got reported by the opposition and it was when we played at a college ground with no bar facilities. We made sure we left absolutely no mess given we were in a school change room. Didn't do us any good though.
Thats outrageous that a club would report someone when they dont provide bar facilities. I (sort of) see where clubs are coming from when teams bring beer when the club provides a bar, but if a ground doesnt have a bar then a club shouldnt report them. Maybe the club should still out of courtesy ask/advise the club that they will be bringing a carton, but I dont think a club should be fined fopr bringing a carton in that case, unless they trash the place and leave beer bottles and cigarette butts around a school, which is a different case altogether though
Some schools don't allow alcohol or smoking anywhere on their grounds
