No No no. That wouldn’t do Everything else would be ignored and the queues for Beres would stretch back to the turnstiles forcing SAG to issue a closure notice on the grounds of crowd safety. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not do a cafe or restaurant before or after ! Ssh thats what I do. Get parked up Parkside Road about 12ish tram into town stroll round ands find a nice place for a pre match meal. Ive found some really cracking out of the way places that do some great nosh. Back to Hillsborough on tram then generally have a pleasant day out ruined by watching the dross that they now con us into believing is football. Cant have everything tho eh !!!! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been my choice of pre match fodder for many a year. Always find it amusing that people queue round the block on Middlewood shops without a murmur of complaint. Then moan like hell if there’s a dozen people in a queue inside Hillsborough. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodger Wylde Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 @FootyScran (Twitter) A very interesting account. Even I looked at it! The Lebanese chicken flatbread at Barnsley (yes, Barnsley!) looks outstanding. The double cheeseburger at Hartley Wintney FC also looks splendid. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelerian Posted December 5, 2021 Share Posted December 5, 2021 catering at football really shouldnt be that hard. it just needs someone to actually care enough to make it so. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quinnssweetshop Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 It's all down to a vicious cycle of grabbing as much profit as you can. So the staff are paid peanuts and treated like crap... They don't care because the bosses don't. . Treat your workers right, give them proper equipment to work a large crowd in a short space of time and they'll come up with the goods. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deepcar_lights Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Eating at Hillsborough is one in the arm against your health. It's not just poor food, its a genuine health bummer. It needs looking at. As it is, its not even a consideration when we go to games. I was partial to a chicken balti in my younger days, though. I'd love to eat at the ground. That's the kicker. The whole swfc bar needs raising and bringing into alignment with modern trends. We're naff in most areas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhiteOwl91 Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Snap at Tottenham’s ground was decent. Needed to remortgage the house to pay for it, but couldn’t fault the quality 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musingowl Posted December 6, 2021 Share Posted December 6, 2021 Rarely buy owt at the ground. Queued up all half time for a hot chocolate for the little un at the Wycombe match. The hot water machines they used stopped working. Got served my hot chocolate just in time to miss our second goal. Never again! It is infuriating watching it, anyone who's run a service point and has an ounce of common sence, could observe 1 half time and come up with 99 ways to improve. If you're gonna charge the earth, at least have decent food on, if the food is decent (might be for all I know) do something radical like put up some electric pricing screens with pictures, few tweets on social media ect. (Half of the kiosks on South stand don't have a price list, you just get to the front and ask the staff who in turn guess). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
