1I know they used to be brought in huge bulk from morission over the road! But this was 3/4 seasons ago!

And the toilets smell of wee.  I blame MWJ and Delia, sort it out or leave our club alone you pair of leeches.

Well I got lambasted by Morty for saying they should be supplied by the shop by the pub at Blickling Hall. They sell pies to be proud of.

I am told that on his appointment the Chief Executive wrote to all Carrow Suppliers asking for a reduction of 5% on their prices and none refused but of course they are going to recoup their 5% by other means such as reducing quality.

You get what you pay for and as I said last time has anyone ever seen delia eating a match day pie?

personally, I go to matches to watch football and not to pay rip-off prices for food and drink inside the stadium. Does anyone seriously expect quality catering at a football match outside of corporate facilities?

Good on you River for bringing it up.  For the price we pay they need to start looking at the quality. OK people can say it''s only a pie/drink etc but for the cost it''s not unreasonable to expect a decent standard.  It''s not a bad thing to ask, it''s buisness.  Everyone is happy to pay a little over the odds as the revenue goes back to the club but it should be a decent standard in return.

For the price people pay for a pie/hot dog i think you should get a good quality product!

On a serious note which Pie did you have today? the Match day pies used to be supplied by a local company with the main Steak and Kidney and the pasties being bought from up north.

I know the supplier personally of the match day pies and can speak to them but am not sure if this is the one that you are commenting on?

[barclaystand 0]

I''m sure the match day special pies have less filling in them than they used to. My thoughts on this is that it could be down to McNally hammering the suppliers down on price. Another of his sneaky revenue growth schemes maybe?However this one could be counter-productive as I always enjoyed the match day pies, but have just about given up on them due to dissappointment now.

It used to be a must to have a snack half time at football, traditional, but the pies at CR have been cruddy, so we go without now.  Bring back pukka pies, they were bloody gorgeous and cheaper than the c**p they serve now

[Mello Yello 2,572]

I wonder if the quality of the food offered in the refreshment concourses - is on par with the offerings in the club restaurants?

I bet it isn''t.....

I''d be happy if they''d give you the option to have Brown Sauce on your hot dog... I hate ketchup!

Who cares about the pies inside the ground, the new fish and chip stand outside the Jarrold is lovely![:)]

After 6 Pints of Beer, anything Tastes good, try putting a big squeeze of Mustard and Tommy Sauce in the centre of pie, mix it up... lovely, or try their hot dog, washed down with a miniature Smirnoff Vodka...

 

 

Try Typing Smirnoff on predictive txt.....

These fans who put their stomach''s before a new player for Norwich City.

If you want top flight football you have to keep eating all the pies and getting more in our coffers.

Grant Holt would not be playing for Norwich City the way he does if it hadn''t been for all the pies that have been eaten in the past.

As they come out of your bottom looking and smelling the same as when they went in..... (and here''s the clever bit)..... recycle by inserting your motions in ready made pastry and cook on gas mark 2 for 30 minutes.Simple.

[/quote]Ha!Away games are different, as you are on the road longer and obviously require some kind of food product.The pukka is a tasty pie at a reasonable price. I think the pies at CR are fairly tasty, but are way too pricey.[:)]

Morty...you can''t assume that all those that come to home games live within 5 mins of Carrow Road - however, those that do travel a fair few miles to get to Leaky FCR know that Morrisons is a better bet anyway.  While we''re mentioning catering, £2 for a cup of tea or coffee - now that is taking (as well as drinking) the p*ss!!!

[/quote] A fair point about the travelling, and also about Morrissons, I think that once sales start dropping then McNally is going to have to have a very close look at the pricing policy.

[WeAreYellows49 0]

I wouldn''t mind the price if the quality of the pies was better, the pastry is horrid and all I can say is ''what fillings'' lol
