    Drinks break

    Are they really still needed, we've been back a month, it's not exactly scorching weather, especially at night, and do we still have to "take the knee" before every game, games are lasting 2 hours now, it's ridiculous, hope it doesn't continue into next season.

    I agree, be good to see the back of them, though today I actually think we benefited from the first break. Whatever was said, helped refocus the lads and they started to more effectively nullify the Swansea threat.

    I agree with Williams eloquent response.

    Was for rear of the summer weather and possible lack of fitness due to lockdown. It kind of adds to the surreal nature of it all.

    Can’t see it becoming a permanent thing but one never knows

    They have become more like tactical breaks..the manager and coaches should be kept away from the players and the players should be only allowed a Quick drink before returning to the field of play..

    stop it while you can.

    don't watch many throwball games and only been to a couple in person. It's almost unbelievable the number of ad breaks. More time sitting there listening to some awful ad than there is in actual play.

    I'm sure it was the same in the early days. just a couple of ad breaks and now it's up to every 3-4 play there is a full 3-5 minute break.
