Pukka Pies Sponsorship Deal

[WhiteHawk]

Its rare I have a pie (or any food or drink) at Bramall Lane but Peters Pies were pretty good. Pukka Pies are garbage.

Does this deal also mean that we're going to have 'The Pukka Pies Stand'? Thats even worse than 'The Jessica Ennis Stand' and almost as bad as 'The Lurpack Stand' at Leeds.

There are pukka pies signs absolutely everywhere on and around the original corner. What was the fortina spa corner last year (I think that's what it was)

Edit: Should have read the article first... Doh.

 

[oaklandrdblade]

All will be well if we bring back Hendo's

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Blimey. I thought the days of the Pie Man were long gone...

Seemed like Peters Pies were much better...well they actually looked like they had meat in them. I am sure when we used to have Pukka Pies before they were just mostly gravy and crust then some tiny bit of "meat" was somewhere within.

Oh well I guess we can be glad its not on the shirt and we don't have Shipperly still playing for us.

Pukie pies, I still remember the taste ugh!!

 

[JJ Sefton]

I'm fucking starving now.

 

[Wards]

I like Pukka Pies! Especially the chicken and mushroom.

 

[broomhillblade]

The best pie shop I've ever visited:
Canungra, Queensland, Australia.

 

[Moorside Blade]

Once the pies have been cremated by the caterers we'll never tell the difference.

Actually, I think we should have a big picture of a pie on the front of the shirt instead of that cheap-as-chips rubbish we've currently got. If we have to have anything on a shirt other than a club badge and a number, it may as well be a pie.

Would also look great on XXXFB replica shirts.

"The Jessica Ennis-Hill stand"

Named after an olympic heroine and our excellent left back/centre-half.

 

[KenMcnaughtsNuts]

Never had a Peter's pie, but i imagine they're crusty and horrible.

I like Pukka Pies, yes theyre soggy but that's what i like about em. The chicken and Mushroom ones are the best.
I wouldn't buy one at a football match though, always think blokes eating pies at the football look like cavemen. Not a good look.

 

[blade too long]

pies pies pies , this isnt Wigan you know

 

[judge]

You shouldn't eat pies they are bad for you and make your belly look big in your replica shirt

 

[KenMcnaughtsNuts]

It certainly has an air of fat get about it. How long are you at the match, 2 hours? You can't wait 2 hours to get summat to eat? A cold tuesday night in Rochdale, fair enough. When in a craphole, anything goes. But there's just no need to make BDTBL look all scruffy and common just to keep your belly serviced. Bit of decorum please. You wouldn't eat a pie in church, now would you?

 

[highpeakblade]

No matter who supplies the Pies at Beautiful Downtown Bramall Lane we as fans will still be served up the same cremated, tough pies that if you fed to a duck would probably make them sink.

I don't get it at all? The pies are cooked offsite are they not or at least away from the kiosks so all they have to do is time it right, put them in the heat cupboard and serve them up nice and fresh but it never happens and instead we get served up something that tastes like it has been left there since the game before.

Personally I have nothing against Pukka Pies, I would go as far as to say I enjoy them from the chippy (who cook them properly). After a couple of pints I would be quite happy to partake in one with mushy peas and Hendo's!

Give us this day our daily pie?

I wouldn't go in a church in the first place!

Pies! I can remember the famous Shoreham meat pies sold at the kiosk at the top of the Kop when it was still standing ( the fans not the kop). I can remember always getting a lukewarm mince beef and onion pie with a superheated Bovril that could be poured over the cardboard pastry to heat up the pie crust and filling up. Yummy!

I'm assuming this means an end to the "Steak and Stones", which, on the odd occasion I had cause to purchase one were actually very nice.

I'm astounded not one person has mentioned this yet though: http://englandband.pukkapies.co.uk/

That was actually my second thought when I read about the deal.

The balti pies at the bramall lane end are hotter than the sun some times, bought one at the Swindon match couldnt eat it till we played brentford

 

[broomhillblade]

One of my golden moments at Bramall Lane happened about 20 years ago.

A man in the row in front of me returned at half time with a pie, sat down, and raised it towards his mouth. Unfortunately he didn't keep it level and the whole contents slid out on to his lap, leaving him holding just the cardboard-like crusts.

What happened next was even better. Instead of dancing around, swearing, he tried to pretend as though nothing had happened. He sat there quietly with the hot contents soaking through his trousers, and then - as unobtrusively as possible - he swept the remnants on to the floor.

 

[Mad Mick]

Chuck loads of relish on your pies, it makes em taste better.
Anyways how come Henderson's don't do sponsoring, now that's a quality product and its from Sheffield.

 

[2ndtenorblade]

Anybody else old enough to remember warm pork pies made by Davys?

 

[UnitedBlade]

I think my first experience of pies at the Lane was whilst watching cricket in the 60s.

You know how superballs used to bounce ? Well we managed to get the contents of a BDTBL pie to bounce as high off the terracing. I don't think I've had a pie at the Lane since.

Boycott, Sharpe, Padgett, Hampshire, Close, Hutton, Illingworth, Binks, FST, Wilson, Nicholson.
Happy days

Now you mention it yes. Weren't they an oval shape?

After the match on saturdays my grandfather would occasionally arrange to meet my grandmother, who'd been shopping at the Rag and Tag. There was a Davy's nearby and we'd sometimes go for a cup of tea. One saturday (after a match remember) Woody came in to the cafe, sat down, lit a fag and ordered egg and chips. I wasn't allowed to ask for his autograph though.
'When a bloke's gerrin his snap he dunt want to be talking to thee lad' I was told.
