Guest Sheff Owl Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 The Burger Vans/Chippy's and Beres must be make a mint on Matchdays. Cheaper/Tastier and more for your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheowls69 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Its £3.10 for 440ml of Stones on the Kop! So nowhere near a pint like Carling. A 500ml can of bitter would be a bit more acceptable. But as we keep saying we dont have to buy it! I have stopped buying it at half time anyway. Cant get anywhere near the front of the Q before half time is about to end! Apparantly they are not allowed to 'pre-pour' pints when I asked! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheowls69 Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 I am sad but I have worked it out that I am paying 70p per ml of Stones on the Kop wheras on the South they pay 54p per ml of Stones! So I reckon the price of a can should be about £2.50 on the Kop to make it an equivalent price if not cheaper coz its out of a can! Why should we pay more! Is it because of the beautiful beer garden we drink it in! :smile: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oh_weds_we_love_you Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 The price is one thing but its the fact that in the so called working class area of the ground i.e. The Kop the price for beer is dearer than in the south stand. Why? and can any north stand fans tell us what the price is in there. SOUTH, £3.10 AND £3.30 per PINT and £3.10 and £3.30 for about 3/4s of a pint, thats my gripe To be fair, the head I get on a pint at the Blue Ball, that may as well be 3/4's of a pint than a pint! May well just be the difference in facilities on the South and Kop? Perhaps they can serve a pint on the South, but only have cans on the Kop and just charge the same price? No idea, not been on the Kop since it has sold beer TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geedee Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 The food at stadiums and arenas all around the country is the same - way over-priced sh*te food. Simple answer - don't buy it. Have a bite to eat and a beer away from the stadium. Then sooner or later, the companies doing the food might learn a lesson - reduce the price and improve the quality; or they'll get f*ck all business. A pint of cold draught lager at Bournemouth was about £3 it cna be done its whether the caterers at S6 want to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorian gray Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 Its a rip off on every side of the ground this season im afraid, although judging by the noticeable lack of people queuing to buy half time refreshments on the North on Saturday i guess many are no longer willing to be blatantly ripped off, though anybody paying £2.20 for a sausage roll deserves to be ripped imo. looked at exactly the same at h/t... and thought bolox to that...

dorian gray Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 north is 3.30 for a 500ml carling up 20p from last season, if you have to sup beer to watch wednesday (and i'll admit, it's helped me at times)... then don't sup in the ground...

Bannofan Posted August 23, 2011 Share Posted August 23, 2011 So the club has done the deal already with the catering company, so wont lose out if people vote with their feet and are not held to ransome. The price of food wont stop people going to the game, although it's worrying that foundation members are cancelling due to lack of value compared with previous seasons. There are so many food places outside the ground now in every direction, including a great new chippy on Middlewood road opposite KFC , Hillsborough fish bar, for those who don't want to que at four lanes. Absolute no brainer for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
