Last time I had a pukka at a game it was that hot it was fucking radioactive.
 
our ticket prices are reasonable though :)
They are which is one area I'm full of praise for the club about.

Which company supplies concourse refreshments btw? I've forgot but they're either out of order or SUFC are for charging them too much to which they have to up prices accordingly.

no idea, never buy owt off there any more, usually have a big dinner in the market first and then after that like to leave room for beer after the game. Those balti pies do smell damn good though :)

Compass have the contract.
 
Here's a thought for Compass..............how about ordering enough bleedin pies so you don't run out before half time. Who knows, you might actually increase your turnover and profits.
 
Heres some more thoughts for compass:

1. why not try opening all available kiosks on the first game of the season you fucking mongs
2. Why stop drinks vouchers just when people were starting to use them
3. if your going to stop vouchers atleast have the kiosk open for serving paying customers
4. why when theres a queue a mile long do you not consider poring a few extra pints of lager so theyre ready and waiting
5. Can you train your staff to hold more than 1 pint at a time, it takes the piss when you have 3 pouring beer and then one muppet carrying 1 pint at a time to the tills.
6. Why dont you stick to bottles beers or cans if you have such an issue serving draught beers
7. if your going to only sell beer from 1 till then dont sell food on the same till

the catering is a fucking shambles

Alternatively:

Do you really need a pint at half time (and the ensuing piss after the game is 70 minutes old)? The game ends at about 5pm and the pubs are open for at least another 6 hours after that. It's not like it's high quality ale.

well yes I do need a pint at half time even if it is crap, 2 hours is long enough to start sobering up and luckily I dont have the bladder of a 60 year old and can hold me piss in for 45 mins. However as it is I still have to annoy the people on my row as theres no way to get a pint and get back for kick off.

going on your premise why even have a kiosk selling anything? Nobodies going to starv or die of dehydration in 2 hours but it should be a way the club can make money and keep fans happier. I know the club pretty much makes a flat fee out of it anyway and so volume of sales dont really matter when it comes to extra funds for the club but all it does at the moment is piss everyone off, its a complete shambles

Get a camelbak and smuggle it in under your jacket. Problem solved. :)

Oh I agree about the catering. I'm not generally that fussed about a pint at half time but sometimes - especially cold days - I wouldn't mind a pie but I generally don't bother as it's a shambles.

On the pint front though - your comment

does rather prompt the question "Why bother then?"

I'm not having a pop at you - I know the catering's shite, but it's so shite I don't even try, and I'm sort of surprised that anyone else does.

I bother because I want to and it was possible last season with the vouchers and it would be possible this season if the catering was run even half competently which I dont think is too much to ask. Its not as if they dont have any idea of how many people they have to serve and when they will be coming which should make things much easier. Personally I think they need some booze vending machines or even food vending machines or now that I think about it what happend to those guys who had a big rucksack full of lagers? They worked well so why have they got rid?

As for cold days though, I do suffer from the half time pint freeze so this season Ill be toying with the idea of a Bovril and Vodka or Rum ;)

The Bovril is luke warm at best on the Kop from the top stall....they need to turn the Bunsen burner up I reckon

They can't even get that right......sometimes it's feckin radioactively hot and takes an hour to cool down before you can sip it without burning yer gob

I left 5 mins before half time for a pint (Cherry St end of the Kop) and finally got a drink when the 2nd half was starting, and there was no time to drink it.
I suggest sacking all the student wasters on the stalls, and replacing them with Chinese pint-pourers.

Why has the half time voucher system stopped, anyone know?

You could say the same about food. Surely people can wait. The game ends at 5pm and restaurants are open for at least another 6 hrs after that.
 
Not pies but I didn't think the need for another thread as it's the catering department yet again.

My lad played a friendly game last night so we were rushing to the game afterwards and got there just in time for the kick off, we hadn't had any tea due to me coming in from work and us getting straight off to the friendly, when we got there I asked for a Hotdog for the lad, only for them to say we haven't got any left, I said ok then can I have a Sausage Roll then? They said we haven't got any of them either. I said what a joke and didn't bother asking for anything else and just fucked off to my seat. I couldn't believe they didn't have two basic things available before the match has even kicked off, embarrassing.
 
I have managed approaching 44 years of near perfect health and my only brush with hospital was to have an appendix removed.

I put a lot of this down to never having consumed a morsel of food that has been prepared in a football ground.
 
Don`t worry. I can assure you that situation will be more than rectified over the next few years irrespective of what you do or don`t eat.

Apparently you're safer sucking a cock, because at least you know what's in it.
