I do think the outside space is very much under utilised though. Get it fenced off during the first half and get a few outside bars sorted. You’d think no bugger would use them during the winter, but these people weren’t stood drinking beer outside the away end at Peterborough the week before Christmas.

Spurs do Beavertown on draught and are a cashless stadium and do gourmet burgers. It holds 60,000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comparing the facilities at the Reebok to those of a brand new £1.2Billion Premier League stadium is a bit daft. That's all. I agree it should be better, but these things don't happen overnight.

Think the best set up I have seen was at Doncaster races, a line of kids non stop pouring pints at the back and a line of kids in front if them taking the order/money, pass the customer the pints and job done, be even quicker now with contactless. I,ll bell shaz in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we were in the PL and averaging over 26k a game it was nothing like as bad as it is now. So your point doesn't really hold much water when crowds are now way lower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tkonion Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 28 minutes ago, Cheese said: Suppose not. But bottles take up a lot more space, and people would still complain about it being too warm. It's an unsolvable conundrum. I believe other clubs do it and as I mentioned earlier it was card payments and bottles only at the Rod Stewart event at the Unibolt a couple of years back. Drinks were cold and queues were short. There is no conundrum that doesn't have a solution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, i wasn't suggesting we need to be more like Grimsby either, or more to the point, I'm not envious, it just looks nice Agree these things don't happen overnight, they don't appear to happen over 25 years either, it's always been shite food and beer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Massives are fucking brilliant at it. Brother has a ST. Times I’ve been with him. 44 mins bob down for a pint. Small kiosk serving nowt but ale (food/snacks/soft drinks served in different kiosks). 3 folk on it. About 20 pints sat there waiting for a top up. First folk start appearing, bang, the machine starts, one fills pints to near top, another one takes order, third one finishes pints off. Queues move quickly and everyone back in seats for second half. It really isn’t that difficult. For the price of a few extra minimum wages they are shifting a shed load of extra pints at £5 a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
