    Didn't see anyone eating the curry but they must have sold some. They ran out of hot chocolate such is the amateur hour of our entire club. Running out of a powdered drink that lasts for ages.

    Can’t fault the club for trying this.

    I didn’t see it, but if it tastes ok and reasonable price then why not.

    As for non-alcoholic beer - tbf there’s some decent stuff out there that’s worth having if you’re driving. Better than Pepsi.

    Do we still offer a "meal deal" that's the same price as buying the individual items :D:D

    They didn't even have the new meal and price added to the prices board.

    Pointless having some mystery food in a pot at the back of the kiosk if you don't put up ANY information saying what it is or what it costs.

    But as usual it's extremely poorly executed and done in such a lazy way

    I'm still waiting for the prices to appear and a review from anyone who did try it

    Possibly because we have the smallest backroom in the entire football league.

    It's ok having an amazing chef in a restaurant, but if you don't have waiters/waitresses, meet and greet and marketing.... It's pointless having an amazing chef.

    Nah, that's no excuse. One member of staff is enough to put prices up and a sign saying what you're selling, it doesn't take an army of people.

    I'd be staggered if even a piece of A4 paper wasn't on show at side of kiosk.

    Are you saying that even wasn't in place, as crappy as it would have looked.....

    I must admit, the good ideas are always undone by the inevitable half-arsed implementation.

    Do you know what it cost? I might have tried it but you should never have to ask what something costs. The containers they were put in looked like disposable sick buckets. Could do with modifying them.

    The whole stand is useless though not just catering. Not just the lack of paper towels in the gents. Look at the really badly faded bins around the concourse that have on our Toby Tyke club crest we've not had for years.

    Correct. There was absolutely nothing at all to say what was in the cooking pot at the back of the kiosk. I was stood near it for a good 5 minutes too and I'm very nosey so had a proper look. Nothing there at all, not even a sheet of paper

    Nope. Other than that tweet I have no idea what it was, what it cost or anything. In fact the tweet doesn't seem to match u to what I saw because it looked like a big home made pie? But again I have no idea really

    Homemade chicken balti pie in East Lower. It looked decent to be fair, same price as a regular pie, which is what I ended up with cos I went to a kiosk that wasn’t selling the homemade one so only saw it afterwards :(. They also didn’t have any crisps, which is completely understandable when you think how quickly they go out of date and how difficult they are to store…
