Its a joke.

Same on the STFS today, felt sorry for the lone girl on the bar trying to keep up on her own. Literally one girl, take order, then pull pints etc. Took a while to get a pint before the game and I arrived before 2.30. I wouldn't have even attempted at half time. I'm not missing 10-15 minutes of the game to make sure I get a pint for half time.

Its notable how much of the crowd are not in their seats for the start of the second half at Deepdale. I know their contract ends this season, they want literally booting out of the door the useless cretins.
 
Get on twitter and keep an eye on Heathcote for when he posts - then give him shit.

Sooner he fucks off the better.

They days when a cup of Bovril used to suffice.

STFU and just pay it.

To be honest (not that I’m dishonest any other time) I don’t really think people are too arsed about getting top notch food and drink - as long as we can get served within 5 minutes, mediocrity is acceptable. However, waiting 15 mins for a pint of fosters is unforgivable

That pork bap looked alright.

Had some excellent baked goods at Plymouth, a lovely balti pie at Gillingham, tasty Delia grub at Norwich and some reasonable veggie stuff at Forest Green but you’d be foolish to expect much at a footy ground.

A boiled burger at Millwall was a particular lowlight.

Really wish people would just stop using it

Pre/post match drinks elsewhere

Do you really need that extra pint at half time ?

I know it’s unlikely but would would love for one week at least for no one to bother as some form of protest

Absolute awful service

I agree, if people stop using it for a couple of matches they'll get the bloody point and might buck their ideas up!

One day someone at the club will twig that this makes the club look like amateurs.

Believe that they where refusing to sell alcohol until just before half time despite early queues.

The issue on the kop was comical.

Sooner Paul Heathcoate is booted out the better.

I think many things have made them look like amateurs for a while now haha

Didn’t even have coffee on the town end pre game today. Had to endure the worst tasting cappuccino. I can understand running out of things but not 30 mins prior to kick off

Same on the STF after queuing for 15 minutes I asked for a white coffee and as she was dithering about I saw her grab a cappuccino cup, I said excuse me that’s a cappuccino I wanted a white coffee only to be told that they are serving cappuccinos as white coffee now !
Had one sip and it was disgusting pre-sweetened shite, so after another 5 minutes of trying to get her attention managed to swap for a bovril
Where else would you put up with that ?!!
 
The club has often struggled with catering logistics. I've moaned about it on here.

Credit where it was due. New staff on the Finney were excellent (The kiosk nearest the Kop). Smiled and polite instead of the usual clueless grunting. They were also organised with two/three staff taking orders and one staff member pouring drinks. (Normally they all do everything in a free for all) It is not rocket science.

Yes, there was a queue. But it went down quickly. Fair enough.

Sorry the Kop had a bad experience. It is usually that way on the Finney. But on Saturday, it was much better.

The relatively tiny amount an extra person's wages cost compared versus the experience of waiting 20 minutes in a queue? No contest. Saturday was proof. On the Finney at least.
