Guest davet30 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 At last saturdays match I think you will agree it was a tad on the chilly side. I thought I'd pass on the ice cold lager and go for a hot drink. The young girl at the back of the counter spent the first 40 minutes shivering and had her hands up the opposite sleeves. I asked for a black coffee, (I don't take milk in either tea or coffee). She looked at her colleagues for help and they all didn't seem to know what to do. Eventually they said they only did coffee with milk??!! Apparently the powdered milk as already mixed with the coffee! I'll have a black tea then, I said. Again I got a similar response when the eventually said they didn't do black tea either. "Well just take the powdered milk out of the cup and just add hot water to the tea bag then" I said. The said "We can't, the powdered milk is in the bag"!! McFuckinDonalds is a gourmet restaurante aside catering at S6 IMO! I had to have the cold lager 'n' never warmed up for the rest of the match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobsMagicCalculator Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Create a catering mascot called MR BALTI PIE. He walks round in a big suit (yes you guessed it looking like a chicken balti pie with a big grin) walking at the bottom of the kop at half time selling lovely chicken baltis. Thus saving big queues at the kiosks and when we get took over and then I expect the finest breast of guinea fowl with dauphinois potatoes and baby cabbage delivered to my lap by an 18 year old polish bird with big knockers.

Arthur Bach Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 My sausage roll only contains 35% meat when it promised 40%. I want a refund. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DoreOwl Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 (edited) They should have the same method of serving tea/coffee but without the powdered milk. There is no need for spending on fresh milk, those UHT milk pots found in most hotels are fine and they last up to about three years. I dont really have an issue with the catering, besides the ques but nothing much will change that. Edited March 28, 2008 by DoreOwl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveyboy66 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Listen...whilst most of you want a pre..takeover moan I have to point out to you that......... (a) the club...run by the current management team (b) the CEO...who runs the club.... does not give a poo poo about the match day experience of the fans otherwise...these issues which have gone on all season...would have been sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest farnworthowls Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I dont bother getting anything at all from the catering in the stadium anymore as it is a total rip off. Having pies of the quality we have at the rugby at the JJB stadium might make me change my mind though, you cant beat a Wigan pie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest micky v Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 knock em all down and start again afresh.Catering standards at the ground are that poor that i can honestly not find a single redeeming quality about any of it.Shut them down i say Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jimb Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 the catering at S6 is indicative of everything else down there - a flippingshambles. *the staff don't give a poo poo. okay, it's minimum wage, but train them right and encourage them to give a throw. *the food is a disgraceful rip off - i know swfc are not alone in this, but if Greggs can do a sausage roll for 50p (and its hot and contains meat!), why does it need to cost £2.40 at S6? *the quality/quantity is poo - chips are crap, there's no salt, and nowadays they're about 10p each. *hot drinks aren't particularly hot. also there's the 'white only' issue. *never any condements *queues are ridiculous - there's 6 flippingtills for a reason. *£1.60 for a lukewarm 500ml bottle of water? *why do the staff on the bar need a calculator to add up the price if you order more than one drink? utter morons. also they never have change for any note, and the barrel generally runs out at 3.46pm. they then act as though this has never happened before, run about like headless chickens, and it gets sorted at about 4.04pm. utter shower of poo . combine it with the shocking assault course required to get a ticket (if you're non ST), the lack of anything worth spending money on in the 'super'store and the king louis and his troupe of monkeys tribute act on the pitch. chuck in the litgation game and the fact that we don't even have a chairman watching games, and you don't have to be steven hawkins to work out why only 18kish fellow sadists bother joining me each week.

Mr Farrell Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 You just have to laugh at the ineptitude sometimes. Paid £2.40 (don't quote me) for hot dog today. It came in a bag, and on opening I got a cold sausage, and two seperate halfs of dry bread. They couldn't even be arsed to put it together. I took it back and asked what had happened, and maybe could I have a few onions on it, and the staff just laughed with embarrassment. Add it to your to do list Mr Sheard.
