EXACTLY what I'm talking about - I assumed it was because they hadn't been baked though? But different bread, you could be on to something there.. The plot thickens.

I SHALL be complaining on Friday.

Basically cheaper bread. It was "stale" in the way that the bread you get on a plane is, which makes me think its some cheaper bread with a longer shelf life.

Should have gone for the sensible option. I can confirm that at half-time I had an overpriced ice cream (no flake) and Barrel of Fun had an overpriced orange Calippo.

Very nice.

It would appear that the catering facilities and selection available in the South Stand is far superior to that in the North but the admission is cheaper.

It amazes me why the club cannot employ a catering manager and part time staff, as the frachise people do, and do ALL of the catering themselves.

Incredible. I didn't have one on Saturday...but as said, the crispy bread is what MAKES them.

Shocking scenes

Didn't seem to stop you at the 1998 Shawaddywaddy reunion tour, Mr Park.

Due to my unwillingness to join a queue of 50 people at half-time, I know nothing of these things of which you speak.

That's the other thing I've noticed about the North Stand catering on the occasions that I've been there.

The queue management is an ABSOLUTE DISGRACE.

The South Stand food outlets manage to serve long queues very quickly. The North Stand hut takes ages. Probably because they never prepare enough cooked items and are surprised when people ask for stuff that "will just take another five minutes".

I've always found the South Stand bacon baguettes to be very acceptable (although I've not tried them yet this season) and the cheese pasties are tasty too.

Yesterday's Coke was imported from Dublin, and was an improvement on what was available throughout most of last season - some product of the Republic of Georgia (a nation with a massive history of mafia-controlled industrial counterfeiters), with labels printed specially for the market places of Thailand.

Considering Coca-Cola are major sponsors; shouldn't they have some input on the sale of their products at football grounds?

Fair point.

But then again, an advertising board tells me that Carlsberg is the 'official beer of the Albion', despite the fact that Withdean can't sell alcohol!

The Dublin factory is actually owned by Coke directly (pass it on the way to work every morning - smells sickly) so its definitely legit. Yet half the shops here sell Russian imported stuff...

I tell's thee, when Falmer opens I'll beg, borrow or steal enough money to set up Uncle Sams franchises selling doublechilliburgerlargefries in all four corners of the ground :unclesam::unclesam::unclesam::unclesam:

Make enough money of a home game to not to have to work on all the days in between. Fact :thumbsup:

Thought it all out already. Will have little cardboard cut-out figures in the stripes 46 inches apart with a sign: 'You must be THIS wide to eat our tasty snacks'. Unless your waist can touch both SIDES of the sign, you ain't getting served :thumbsup:

One way to ensure all those XXXXL size Albion tops get sold at the club shop.

Who, in this jewelled realm of ours admits to being that size?
