Couldn't get a Chilli pie before K/O but there were plenty of chicken/balti ones left at that stage, North nearest the East corner.

Never mind pies, it was getting increasingly tricky to find any beer that wasn't Fosters or (for the Fosters haters) Strongbow after the game. How can a catering outfit be so non-clued up? Tho I know the answer: They don't record the fact that five thousand people asked for Kronie and were told there was none, they only record the sales of last-cooking-lager-of-choice-in-the-world-ever Fosters. So they come to the stupid wrong conclusion that everybody loves that Fosters shi t.

Can't believe they tell us All to stay after game,then struggle to serve lager and NO FOOD........

Yup, club is still a bit League Two when it comes to joined-up catering thinking. Bless. Their loss. Captive audience and they f ucked it up. We can always eat in town later, whereas they won't be able to recoup that potential revenue. Oh well. :shrug:

Not a single pie left when I got to the front. It's the worlds most amateur operation. Seriously, they know how many of us are going in advance, and they still can't make enough food.

AND... they didn't let us know so it wasn't until i got near the front that the penny dropped. :angry:

The pie was going to be my lunch and I wasted probably about 45 minutes queuing thinking there would be some :(

I got to the north stand (east end) kiosk at about 12:30, no hot dogs, no burgers (either will do for the boy) so I opted to get him a pie, only to find they had just 1 balti left. Needless to say, he ended up having a pack of jelly babies for lunch. That balti was MINE.

To be honest, I'm quite surprised they didn't run out of beer as well towards the end.

Plenty of pies in ESU when I got there - but then it was about 11.30, so I was early enough for the chili pie.
Joined my brother in NS for the party afterwards. When we left just before 5, my brother got a balti pie (there were plenty) and while he was ordering that, they came out with a fresh batch of sausage rolls, so I succumbed to the temptation. Full marks to the caterers for keeping up with the demand.

Here, there and everywhere
We were in ESL. No jacket potatoes or pies before the match. Nothing hot at halftime, despite getting there early. And all they had after the match was sausage rolls.

The impression I got from talking to the staff was they they were trying to get rid of all the end-of-season stock, so they didn't want to buy/cook more than they needed. Has anyone told them there is still a match to go, with possibly the highest attendance all season?
