    You cannot compare the two. One is served by volunteers and the other by paid employees.

    A fully clothed porn star?

    By the way, for £4.10 you have to queue up for 15 minutes, and also be told that there's no hot food left.

    Which is what a dominatrix might say to you, cos that's what they do.

    (Apparently).

    I can.

    One costs me £1 less and is served by people who ask me how I am and I can have banter with.

    The other one costs more, and is served by people who would be more enthusiastic if they were counting hairs on a paintbrush.

    One is a pleasure, one isn't.

    i actually don't have a problem with the prices in the ground. ben finally came out recently and said they can't compete with town centre. you're paying a premium because there's nowhere else you can get a pint and their aim is to make as much money they can over a 2-hour period. no one is forced to have a pint. they're not a charity. they also allow redfearn's to do what they do, which to be fair to the Club, they don't have to.

    oak well sandwich ran out of pies who i went in, so i bought one inside the ground. it was $hit and expensive, but it is what it is..

    I don't mind paying a premium

    But I've never paid £4.10 at any other ground ( other than Wembley)


    £3.50 the usual price

    I prefer to go to mount before the game

    BT sport and sky sports so don't usually leave until after the BT sport game so too late to call into redfearns

    Get into ground for 2:45 so quick pint before the game

    Not sure what you mean about hoyland ?

    By the way I think you all do a great job at redfearns , nothing against the place but feels too much like an airport, bookies for my liking
