The edge.
Two staff pulling the beers and a que half the stand long.
What was that all about?? Great day but the club knew how many were coming.
Poor that today on the organisation, it doesn't take much though does it???
Must do better next season with bigger attendances to deal with.
Only gripe of a corking day.
 



Anyone go in the sheaf or try before the game? I was stood at the doors queuing just to get in never mind the bar and gave up after 5 minutes. Went in the railway and although there was a queue at the bar managed to get served after about 10 minutes. Starting to think this promotion malarkey is a load of bollocks. Roll on relegation :eek:;)

Club needs to talk to the franchisees who have the rights to, well, catering Isnt the right word.

Only time they've had it anywhere near ok was in the Prem when they installed that mega fast dispense system and had staff wandering around selling ale. Been a joke for decades apart from that brief period. So easy to sort as well.

Was on Kop. Got my half time beers ordered as I got a pie before the game. Looked round for the Hendo's and smart arse staff says, " none left in stadium mate, end of season". NO SHIT SHERLOCK!!!! But my Hendos at home has a self by date to 2018. Surely you can purchase and store it. Also massive queues for beers and non existent pies at half time. If that is a franchised operation it needs changing for next season.

Then again, looking back up at the Kop we need that extension, removal of pillars and an internal concourse with food and drink outlets. It would be a brilliant ground then. I am willing to wait until the Champions league moolah pays for it though.
 
CW had it right. Check out the lap of honour highlights on Bladesplayer. At 16:17 he pulls a bottle of Peroni out of his track bottoms and opens with his teeth. I'm not kidding. He's one of our own.

We were in BLUT and the queues at HT were ridiculous. Only passed as I went to pee but ..aw fuck it I'm pissed.
 
As we're talking about gripes -Genuine question - is it possible to redesign the kop to remove those godawful pillars? Or would it need a complete rebuild? Could the roof be supported externally cantilever style? An unrestricted kop view would look stunning.

Same on the South Stand.
I waited the whole of half time for a blooming hot dog, only to watch one kid fail to pour bear while serving two lines with one cashier.
Scary to think what it will be like when we sell out every game in the premier league
 



Ended up sitting to the extreme left side of the kop as you look at the pitch, normally stand three rows from the back of the kop and central. As I was abroad when I ordered today's tickets using that crude guide on the club website I ended up with god awful seats behind a great bloody pillar which effectively blocks out the full Bramall Lane end goal. I wasn't going to grumble but as those pillar's have been mentioned on this thread thought I'd put in my twopeneth. May be appropriate to put in another section of this Board.

Got the impression there were lots of new attendees mainly young parents and families around me it seemed a shame they were subject to obstructed views.

Bloody awful for people sitting behind them
