    How can a business describe itself as an independent British caterer when it is called the lindley GROUP and is a division of an international, multi-continental catering company based in america

    I'm guessing they were once 'independent' and were bought up by a global company...it shows, because they used to be decent, now they obviously don't give a toss.

    Have they changed pie supplier as well? I'm sure they used to get Pukka Pies, now they're from 'The Pie Factory'

    The pie factory; are you sure about that? I'm sure it said the 'tasteless ***** factory' on the side of the delivery van but I could have imagined that.

    It's called wanting the best for Barnsley FC so that the supporters can have a better experience and the club can earn more money
