    can anyone explain to me why the club has decided not to sell Bovril. I now it's not a huge thing but selling Bovril at football matches is something that has happened for years.

    I went for one on Boxing Day and was told that they were no longer selling it.

    I Know What You Mean

    On boxing day, their were a fair few people annoyed when catering staff was telling them that they had none. I think they were just sold out though, which is daft considering we had two quick home games. I guess you will find out tomorrow.

    I've never understood the attraction of drinking a cup of gravy!

    I presume it just doesn't sell well, as catering is franchised out I guess it's the catering company that made the decision.

    Same here..... well, one of those cups with the powdered bovril in the bottom. So we just take a flask of hot water, so I can have bovril and she can have coffee or whatever.
