Whether you’re fancying a traditional pie, a burger or just some chips, you’ll find what you’re looking for. A bite to eat will provide you with all the energy you need for a nerve clenching final 40 minutes.
Play a game on your mobile

Head to social media
Social media is a hive of activity and conversation and it’s likely other fans will be discussing the game.

You can also catch up on scores from around the country to see how opposition teams are doing in their games.
Chat to the people around you If you’re a traditionalist, you can always have a catch up with the people sat around you. It’s likely, if you’re a season ticket holder, faces will become recognizable and it’s always interesting to listen to the opinion of others on the game and how your team is performing.
