im spartacus canary 0 Posted October 17, 2016 Thought I''d indulge on Saturday as I wasn''t driving. 4 fu (king quid for a warm plastic bottle of carling??? that''s it for me never again. Robbing (unts 😈 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabbycanary3 994 Posted October 17, 2016 It''s ridiculous really. As a general point , it would only take someone with a modicum of sense to have a look at the serving hatches (in the N & P for example) to see how little is being sold, and how much busier it could be. There used to be queues, now there are more servers than customers.It''s overpriced, and the choice is poor. No one is expecting Morrisons prices but it could be vastly improved. It''s not appealing, and needs revamping. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AJ 1,359 Posted October 17, 2016 Obviously the solution to this issue is simply to stop being sponsored by the Galway Roast, and instead get in partnership with Weatherspoons. The beer might still be warm, but it''ll be cheap and maybe we''d get hot meals delivered to your seats straight from the microwave... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Rufus 56 Posted October 17, 2016 Move to the Barclay, same price but he''ll of a queue then you would have something to moan about. On that subject why don''t they do what rugby grounds do? Poor out loads of pints during the first half to speed it all up? They would make even more money to splash on weaves and agents fees! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,902 Posted October 17, 2016 You know we''re doing well when the prices of tickets and beer are the only negatives. If previous good seasons are anything to go by we will have a thread about the ticket office very soon.For balance I was impressed Saturday that the club had spent time and money to ensure I saw the last minute goal. Previously I have missed every goal that has been scored that late. Well done and thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy G 15 Posted October 17, 2016 In the upper Barclay they had a fella with pints already poured for sale.So you got a pint of warm and now flat Carling.But if the beer is all that can be complained about must mean the season is going well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Rufus 56 Posted October 17, 2016 What about all the blokes entering the toilets via the exit, disgusting. Also, how many wash their hands afterwards :). Finally, try asking for a red wine in the Barclay bar, they look at you as though you are a nutter, they look around for assistance and they are a fiver............moan over, I think that has covered everything.

Crafty Canary 547 Posted October 17, 2016 This is nothing unique to CR. Look at the prices at cinema and theatre catering outlets for example. The answer is to load up at outlets well away from the ground before and after games. It is possible surely to survive the time inside the ground without the need to drink or eat. If you don''t like being ripped off, don''t buy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabbycanary3 994 Posted October 17, 2016 People get that Crafty, and they do load up, it''s just the marketing people at NCFC who are missing a trick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crafty Canary 547 Posted October 17, 2016 Agreed, so even more reason to boycott the in-ground outlets. They would learn eventually. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
