This week's 1901 meal

[surrey jim]

Well, you can either have some slices of beef and chips for £12, or pub (and Costa Del Sol) classic lasagne and chips for £14. The non-veggie lasagne eaters amongst you* also get the rather bizarre addition of some jasmine steamed rice. This is also rather bizarrely titled as a buffet.

Match Special
Salt cured beef, Hand carved slices of salt cured beef served with rustic chips & baby leaves
Beef lasagne served with rustic chips, garlic bread & baby leaves, steamed jasmine rice
Vegetarian mediterranean vegetable lasagne served with rustic chips, garlic bread & baby leaves

* and mug enough to pay £14.

@bens grandad will be happy with the salt beef.

"Following valuable feedback we are trialling different buffet options over the course of the next few matches. This week we have altered the buffet menu and will be offering members lasagne with garlic bread and salad or carved salt beef, with rustic chips."

Professional caterers came up with a menu like this?. Lasagne and chips?, that's Starch City, Tennessee, and salt beef by all means, but surely it should be served 'on rye', in other words in a sandwich, or with pickles, not with chips.

Chips with everything, it seems to be the easiest and the cheapest option for Sodexo.

It's taken you this long to work it out? If you want to be nearer the ground, try the Swan, they do a great combination, quality food, decent beer, sensible prices.



If only they were the quality of something McCain's would make.



Except you can't pile it on your plate, it's a dollop of Lasgange, or a slice of Beef, or chunck Veggie, and only one portion of either chips, rice or pasta.

For 14 quids I'd want 'all you can eat' at the very least.

You wouldn't get Lasagne and Chips in the cheapest nastiest café, who actually works the menu out They deserve for the place to be empty despite Barbers threats

 

[Freddie Goodwin.]

Can barber say that he really thinks these are quality meals at a competitive price?

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

I have heard about his programme notes, but not read them. What exactly didn't he say?

 

[The Large One]

Lasagne with chips and rice

Salt beef without rye bread or at least a bagel?

Is there anyone there that knows anything about food?

Doesn't look like it.

Town it is then.

Problem is - according to his notes, he doesn't understand why would do that...

Did he really write that in his notes? I read something on here but things have a habit of being exaggerated.

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Just no clue have they...... but then there must be some MUGS who actually buy this??

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Anyone know what 'baby leaves' are?

 

[The Large One]

Did he really write that in his notes? I read something on here but things have a habit of being exaggerated.

I understand he wrote "... that in recent weeks, I've heard talk of some supporters choosing to eat outside of our stadium. To be honest, I'm not sure why."

Perhaps someone can confirm...?

Has he ever been in to town or does he just ghost in on the A23/A27?

am i only one to have a problem with the word "or" appearing in the same sentance as "buffet menu". you serve yourself, you choose what you want, or its not a fecking buffet.

Is this one of those Nigerian fraud mails?

 

[Barrel of Fun]

Is this one of those Nigerian fraud letters?

I don't think so. The Nigerians are targeting the naive. The club seem to be targeting to downright stupid.

Thing is, there aren't any MUGS buying it, well certainly not in the Overprice Lounge, nor in the Gold Lounges last weekend I understand.

Quite, and that is just one of the MANY reasons why no-one is buying it.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

I'm not sure which planet he lives on, so I don't know if he takes the A23/A27 or not.

 

[The Merry Prankster]

Problem is - according to his notes, he doesn't understand why would do that...

If none of the email correspondence has come his way or none of his staff reported our conversations back or he hasn't read the feedback from the focus groups or he's not allowed to read NSC at work then I'm more than happy to discuss it with him in person.
