Football fans at Forest Green Rovers will no longer be able to enjoy a half-time burger or beef pie after their vegan owner banned the sale of red meat from the ground.

That's at least two people with rumbling tummies...

Be interested on how his players cope with having his views imposed on them. Will he have inspections carried out on their fridges?

Fostercan...

The supporters are outnumbered by the players.... The players don't need to eat meat during the game so why should the 'crowd'... It's the players exerting themselves not those watching the game and it's his club.

If the crowd want to control it they should both club together and buy it off him....

Dale has put to much money into the club for anyone to buy it from him,he has helped them but the players don't outnumber the supporters (not at a home match) I think no more pukka pies is the wrong way to go although it think it has all been said it this time for advertising at a time when he has many planing permissions going through.
