    A few weeks ago I posted a throw-away tweet about the missus liking Balti pies and wanting one at Oakwell, then completely forgot about it.



    Until today, when I got to the game and found a letter taped to my seat:



    What a club.

    I'm not sure who's responsible (I have a few suspects), but I'm happy not knowing. Was a great touch and a nice welcome home.

    That’s fantastic, my wife says she’d look forward to going if they had a fillet steak and a bottle of Chateau Margaux 1990 .... ps she likes her steak medium rare :)

    I think this is very pie-ist.
    What about those of us who don't like pies? As per usual we have to go without... once again the tiny minority wins out.
    I'll have to make do with my 400 degree C cup of coffee, which, incidentally I didn't manage to get yesterday. In the 15 minutes of queuing we shuffled forward about 4 feet,
    BOOOOOO !!!!!
    Other than that, nothing to complain about.
