Good thiniking, think we need to do more promo stuff at the club

 

Beer + Pie ONLY £4.40

ONLY?


"Pie offer excludes hot dogs" - That would be because it's not a pie!

 

How much is a pint and a pie at oakwell? It's probably more than that isnt it?

 

Problem is the catering is sub contracted to another company who dictate the prices.

 

gets me that aswell &quot;Only&quot; no matter how much it is, its always only..</p>

Beer and Pie only a quid... now thats more like an &quot;only&quot; offer (y)</p>

 

Why not have a pint in a boozer and a steak bake from Greggs and save about a quid. Lets face it the caterers at Oakwell are stealing money with the charges. Perhaps a more sensible attitude would be pies at a reasonable price.

 

No idea - never buy them...if it is thats ridiculous.

Refeshments at English football grounds really are dreadful

 

Surely somebody from the club could organise a meeting with the company and put forward suggestions. Also isnt there any way to cancel the contract if the contractor's are under performing and over charging?</p>

Any idea when the contract is up for renewal? the existing company seems to have been there for years which baffles me considering customers opinion on them. I would have thought the club would get shut at the first possible opportunity.</p>

 

I just buy a bottle of pop at the garage on way - that way I can keep the top as well so it doesn't go flat if I want to drink it throughout the game rather than in one go.

 

the bottle top fiasco is the worst decision i've ever heard at a football ground

if they are going to continue doing that then they should adopt the policy that they have at the millennium stadium and pour the drink into a paper cup so that you can at least drink it at a normal pace (its not easy to drink a bottle quickly before it starts going flat)

 

To be fair though

I've had that elsewhere including Soldier Field, Chicago.

 

I dont buy anything either anymore but I think a pint is around 2 quid and a pie is more than that (i might be wrong though)</p>

The only thing that I buy is the advertisement directory and personal life story book known as the programme which comprises of 5 pages of BFC news, 45 of adverts and one of rob knowles' boring personal life.</p>

 

RE: To be fair though

I've had it at a couple of other grounds as well but at a lot of others I havent which makes no sense because I was told by a barnsley FC director that it is Football League/FA rules.

 

as if they give a monkeys

It will NEVER change</p>

 

I occasionally buy a coffee at prices that, for the quantity, make Starbucks look cheap. Well I think it's coffee...that what it says on the cup.

 

I once bought a chunky kit kat

I'm not saying it was expensive but they asked me if i'd like to pay in installments and offered to sell me a credit card at the same time.</p>

 

It's £2 for a pie

 

or call at local butchers on way to ground and get an excellent quality pork pie for about 60p!

 

Yeah

or get a Burger from the Burger Van...
