But knowing how long cold bones take to warm up again, and how aging Lungs react to the inspiration of icy air, I do see your point. Perhaps a creche for Grandads and Grandma's is already planned for we OAPs in the new Stand-to-be , with free warming beverages on tap and
nubile maidens on hand to provide a half-time rundown at half time ?.

There I go fantasising again !.... and is ' octogenarious ' really a word ?.

Last season I suggested a small indoor area for "elderly" fans to watch the match .It was poo ,pooed without discussion. I do know of a number of elderly men who have all stopped attending our games as they get too cold.
