I partly agree about all the moaners but I'm sure the club will be as concerned as the OP that they had some problems last night in the WSU (anywhere else?). They lost out on a hell of a lot of beer sales.

Of course, the club already know there is issues. Staff telling supervisors they ran out at 7, that gets passed up the chain.
What we dont need is divs moaning every week about the same things.
Gets boring mate really.

So do you really think that no more Harveys was brought up and that they went the rest of the evening with no Harveys at that outlet??
It was probably just a case of more being brought up as they ran out / low - they can't pump it to the WSU from a beer cellar but have to dispense it from the kiosks which have limited space, so they bring up more when its needed via the lifts. There were also other places they could have got it from including the mobile sellers
There isn't really an issue here

The sheer scale of Harvey's sales must have exceed everybodies expectations. As beer isn't an instant commodity Harvey's may take a few weeks to ensure they produce sufficient quantities and well as keeping their pubs stocked.
Seeing the numbers published on here I wonder how the amount produced for the Amex so far compares to their annual production in the past

Yeah it does a bit. Besides which l feel sure they didnt 'run out', thats inconceivable for a match of last night's importance. probably just a link missing in the chain, a delay in getting another barrel in from wherever they are stored.

well our reporter doesnt tell us, though i do expect the situation was resovled. im highlighting billy big balls southern_sid's attitude that everyone should shut up and say nothing is pretty stupid. all the OP said was its annoying, it certainly is and you'd expect them to have stock to last through to 7.45pm. if this issue is being raised repeatedly, clearly theres an underlying problem not being addressed (hopefully not because someone like southern_sid is telling everyone to ignore the ungrateful punters)

Just for those who read this OP and think that the place was dry from 7pm onwards ..... it wasn't!
The beer was certainly flowing on WSU when I went for my HT pie and pint.
Ok, so sometimes they run out of pre-poured pints when it gets busy. Deal with it people.

Im not saying that
im saying people moaning, and moaning, relentlessly about the same things
god, football fans do my nut.
I agree,
Had a great evening myself, saw an excellent game. Don't care about all the small things, your going to a football match not the cinema.
Quite - I had a pint in WSL "Beer & Pie" hatch. There is a difference between "All the beer ran out before 7pm" and "the beer had run out where I went, and there was a delay whilst a new barrel was brought up".

The majority of the beer at this particular kiosk was gone by 6:30pm. Wasn't a case of pints not being prepoured. It was all gone. Every so often they manage to squeeze out a fosters or a harveys. When I got the front of the queue everything had gone bar 2 pints of Harveys. Of which I had one. I asked when they would be getting more and he said "in about 30 mins". Now in all fairness they had known for 30 mins previously that they were running out. Yet you had people standing behind who normally pour the pints looking completely lost, they weren't doing anything to resolve the situation.
Yes, I am complaining but that is because I find it annoying as did many other people in the queue at the time.
Note: I didn't actually want Harveys. Just seems a little odd that they always run out of beer that isn't harveys! Is it because people don't like it ORRRRRRRRRR because there is a tiny bit of agreement between the club and the brewery. I mean....forcing people to have harveys. Brilliant idea.
Note:
It was all the beers bar a tiny bit of Harveys that had run out. They didn't all run out at the same time, why couldn't someone go grab another barrel?
