Been saying that since the Rod Stewart concert. Card payment only and plastic bottles. Quick service and a decent drink instead of the piss we serve on draught.

Don’t buy the Carling but Coors Light is generally my drink of choice these days. All are available in plastic 500ml bottles based on experience at other grounds.

Site Supporter Cheese Posted September 17, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted September 17, 2021 (edited) At the end of the day, you don't go to a football match expecting a decent pint. Pipes only get used once or twice a week at most. Shit beer is just an unavoidable part of the experience.

The slop we serve up must be one of the worst in the league. Fortunately I don't buy it, mainly because it is shite!, I may get a cider every now and again. they don't serve andy peters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But bottles take up a lot more space, and people would still complain about it being too warm. It's an unsolvable conundrum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnden Pies Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 26 minutes ago, Cheese said: I disagree, but I might be wrong. North Lower only has/had 1 card payment queue per kiosk, which is mental considering the prevelance of contactless these days. I haven't bothered at half time this season anyway. My kids would rather stay in their seats in the open air for 15 minutes than congregate with thousands in a semi-confined space. If they weren't with me, I'd be queuing for a pint on 40 minutes. Wouldn't matter if they were giving the ale away for free in the NSL at the last Sarurday home game, the bar staff hadn't got a bloody clue what they were doing. I know cos I suffered every minute of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
