Apparently they cover Everton & Ascot.

Sounds naughty too grrrrrrr !!!!

 

[BensGrandad]

How long will it be before it goes over to 'in house catering' so we get all the profit.

 

[GoingUp]

Dark Star in WSU please!

and guinness, the flat larger and strongbow is sh!t.

 

[GoingUp]

End of the day it wont really effect us, its just the staffing.

Most of us will be eating Piglets pies, crisps and a pint, none of that is 'supplied' by this new lot, they arnt gonna be cooking us a 3 course meal.

Would like to see chips added to the menu though.

Hopefully they'll get in a decent real ale like John Smiths.

If I remember correctly Sodexo provided the catering at my school, good news indeed if that was the case

I heard a rumour yesterday that Harvey's ave been asked to price their tender again and the offering the albion are looking to make is well below Harvey's price.

Only a rumour, but that will be interesting if the local brewer is ditched.


John smiths and carling all round then!

This 100% WE COULD HAVE IT RUN BY AN OUTSIDE TEAM.POSSIBLY THE GUYS WHO RAN THE CATERING AT WITHDEAN CORP,THEY COULD PROVIDE MANAGEMENT FOR A PERCENTAGE OF THE PROFIT 10%-20% WE MUST BE TURNING AWAY MILLIONS OF POTENTIAL REVENUE,I WOULD START USING THE CATERING IF THIS WAS THE CASE.

Slighty o/t here, but I don't understand the big deal about supplying the away fans with a beer from their locality.

For example, if I went up to Nottingham, I'd be after a beer local to there. The last thing I'd be looking for is a pint of Harveys.

It's the last thing I look for anywhere.

 

[moggy]

Aren't Sodexo the same caterers that cover the sussex county hospital ?

Provided it is cask and not keg or Smooth which would be an improvement on the flat tasteless Harveys served at present.

Wouldn't surprise me. They've put up their prices three times in the last year.

With regard to Sodexo, they did the catering where I used to work and had a real penchant for using up leftovers. So on Monday you'd get chicken curry, on Tuesday you'd get chicken curry lasagne, and on Wednesday you'd get chicken curry lasagne pie!

I think it would make a bit more sense if the away teams' local beers were available throughout the ground, so that each week we home fans can get a taste of something different.

The away fans do have the option of our local ales, but they also have the option and comfort of something they are more familiar with, which is supposed to make them like the experience of coming to our ground more (some people don't like trying different things).

I can understand someone saying they dont like Harveys but to call it tasteless beggers belief. It is usually the robust taste that people cite for why they don't like it.

Greene king is bland in my view whilat john smiths and stones are both (especially when served through a swan neck with sparkler) fairly basic. But it is all about taste

 

[SeagullJR]

As long as I can still get my Harvey's I wont care

Generally Harveys has a distinct taste flavour. not to my liking but it is to many and is there, but that served at The Amex appears to me to be lacking in this taste. Please dont ask me why as I am sure it is the normal brew and the 'brightening' of it shouldnt affect the taste

I can assure you it doesn't The Harvey's at the stadium is generally better than most pubs.

You dislike the company rather than the product as you have stated many times before. Then you usually say it's not as good as Timothy Taylors Landlord which as every beer drinker knows isn't even a bitter
