Would you buy healthier stuff from the food kiosks at Hillsborough?

[toppOwl]

I can't face joining a large queue at half time only to be told when I get to the front they've completely sold out of chicken and broccoli stir fry.

Can't beat chips curry and pancake roll from Chinese on vere Rd before game...yes I'm a greedy tw@t   

[OzOwl]

Can you imagine the “healthy” version after the poo model of the ‘unhealthy’ version

No thanks.

[Sambo89]

No. No thank you!! 

 

Unless it's a pre packed snack like nuts or summat, it'd take too long to either prepare or serve. Plus it's extra options to ponder over, making the already slow service worse. 

 

Keep it simple. 

 

Pies, sausage rolls, hot drinks, pop, beer. 

Quick to serve (or should be) and no effort to cook or prepare. It's fast food at half time or whenever.

When most people go out, they rarely choose the healthy option.

Prices at footy grounds are too expensive when you can literally walk 2 min from ground and get better food at better prices. So on that note.. no. 

This. Everything is too expensive (not just at our ground) and not of the quality of the surrounding establishments.

 

Until this is rectified then realistically the healthier options won’t make a difference.

Would people actually really stop moaning about the catering if the food was fantastic?

I don't think so

You pay for the room, I will bring the fun

No, eat healthy stuff at home. 

When i go to the game  its Burger King before and a pie at halftime. 

Things i would never eat otherwise.

Also - we've not had enough edgy cool kids coming on to shout at everyone "I don't feel the need to have food at a match. why can't people go 90 minutes without something to eat?" etc

They're the funniest posts in threads about matchday catering

For lunch time kick offs we should have Wheatabix, Toast and Crumpets on sale.

Having a Luke warm can of stones poured into a plastic cup, and having to down it and feel sort of hungover and pissy, and getting another and a pie made out of grey matter, at half time, for 78 pounds, is part of the wonderful joy of going to hillsborough 

 

How would you know?

Morning mate. That chap was always our first choice ,sometimes  Beres or the Chinese Chippy next to the ground for their fishcackes but mostly it was the liver and sausage (with brown sauce).

[Stu]

The food they serve now is way over priced, imagine what it'd be if we had healthy stuff in there

[Deanamo Wednesday]

I would need to see significant improvement in quality, service and value before I would even consider buying anything. I accept it's revenue for the club, but to me it's just a pain blocking gangways with uncontrolled queuing, overpriced rubbish and when I have gone to buy anything the service has been unacceptably poor and too slow, so we need to look at training and capability of staff.

 

Maybe I'm old school but I go to watch the match with my mates, I'm not interested in the whole experience and event thing. I know most others probably are and we need to encourage more people in, especially a new generation, but in my opinion I'm not bothered and what I see what we do offer is poor
