    ESL had one woman serving beers and two serving next door the food. Really poor customer service but after years of it you get far too used to it. Don't has trays either like they used to to help you carry food/drinks.

    With the average age in the West Stand being 109 years old, they’re more bothered about going for a piss at half time. There’s normally 25 toilet attendants.

    Surely its too good of a revenue stream to miss. Im sure having 10 staff on would mean more cash for the club anyway as more people would use it. Or am i missing something?

    I believe it’s still out sourced, the club has very little input.

    45 minutes? I'd give it 10-15 mins tops and then give up. That's just idiocy.

    I sit in the west stand but don’t get any food or drink. I mean, I’m not a millionaire. But in all seriousness, the queue today was the biggest I’ve ever seen it and that includes games where we’ve had 20,000 in the ground. I’ve no idea what was going on but people were barely moving forward. Like the poster above says, just cut your losses at some point surely? Can’t miss the game for it.

    How dare people want a drink when there is more than 10k in the ground?

    Inconsiderate *******.

    I’m waiting for your posts about the result or the performance or Woodrow’s goal or literally anything that could be taken as a positive instead of the usual negative or sarcy post. Maybe in the new year eh?

    I feel like I have to be the Ying to the yang of other posters who blow smoke up the club's arse for absolutely everything it does. You can be the yang.

    I get that. I mean, how would the club know all the areas in which they need to improve without your input?

    The company who provide the service are clearly exploiting their employees IMO. I feel for the staff who must have to put up with some reight *****.
