Andy Burnham wants to scrap the ban on drinking alcohol in football stands, which has been in place since the 1980s. Fans aren’t allowed to drink at matches in the top five tiers of men’s football in England and Wales after a rise in hooliganism. The Prime Minister - an Everton fan - says it’s from “an era when football was very different”.
