Research conducted last year by @ismh_uos into this very topic showed the importance of considering the long-term impact of any pilot scheme on alcohol consumption and public health and needs to be fully and independently evaluated: stir.ac.uk/media/stirling…

@DominikDiamond They still make them over here in the UK. Even better is their 'Incredible egg' version with bits of biscuit and raisin in the Easter egg. Glorious!

Raisin and biscuit Yorkie bars. Haven’t had one for decades. The King of Chocolate Bars. Do they still make them or is that another thing we ruined as a civilization?

@Geoff_Pearson This was the opinion of some football related stakeholders and football fans, yes. However, further research we have conducted since stresses the need for this to be properly evaluated alongside the other factors I've mentioned. Briefing to follow.

@RickPurves Didn't your own research suggest that the current prohibition may be increasing alcohol consumption through pre-loading for many Scottish fans?

Interesting. The economic argument that alcohol sales could bring increased revenue for clubs would need to be carefully evaluated alongside the impact on alcohol-related harms. A key consideration not mentioned here, despite alcohol specific deaths being at a 15-year high.

NEW: The Health Secretary says the Scottish Government would give “serious consideration” to any proposal to lift the alcohol ban at football Neil Gray was responding to calls from @GeorgeAdam who says the game has moved on from the 1980s

Times have changed if we are referring to changes in stadium safety and football related disorder. However, the impact of increasing availability of alcohol on overall levels of alcohol consumption, normalisation, and increased marketing and sponsorship also need to be considered
