This petition's aim is to STOP the law that allows police to breathalyse football fans on entry to football ground's after only being twice the drink drive limit (around 3/4 pints).

This is against social freedom and right any person has to relax and enjoy themselves in their free time away from work.

This is another example of people trying to ruin part of the enjoyment of a match day with ridiculous rules. Refusing entry to supporters will only increase the likelihood of disorder and aggression in towns and cities across the UK, which is supposedly the aim of this law.

Let's stand up together and say NO, they cannot take our match-day fun.

Stupid idea will stop enjoyment and possibly cause trouble in towns or cities around ground at least in grounds police n stewards can keep control better

I presume this will apply to all sports such as cricket & Rugby where you are already allowed to drink within sight of the pitch unlike football

It's bad enough in Scotland that we cannot drink in the ground I support rangers and couldn't imagine watching them sober so British police stick it up your hole

Police can act upon "anti-social behaviour" 3-4 pints is nothing to most people!
