Absolute disgrace we were 3rd or 4th in the Premier for the most priciest pint last season another example of the club ripping off its fans no need for this  !

nothing to do with the club. 

 

And lets be honest it isnt much cheaper for a pint in a pub these days. Not many bars now that it is under £5 a pint.

Just seen a picture showing beer is up to £6.25 a pint at the open training session today at the KP.

 

Ridiculous, they're literally trying to push fans away 

That’s atrocious

Yeah it’s £6.25 for a chang. 
 

£6.30 for an Inch’s or a Rekorderlig. 

£6.30 per inch?

 

I'd be minted.

[Dames]

£6.25 for a warm Chang should have the club on trial in the Hague.

Why isn't it? If the club thought their supplier was ripping off fans they could change it couldn't they? Surely they ask them what the price is going to be?

It was definitely their choice to make sure JD kept their prices up and their choice to make match tickets £40 for the Championship. Not exactly the people's club they so loved to present to the media, so i see no reason they would give a shit what the concourse prices are.

How much for soft drinks?  Ya know, in case I ever get the chance to visit the KP again...?  (Hopefully for an actual footy match!)

You couldn’t pay me 6 quid for a Chang 

 

 

(mind you I have my free Chang every time  )

exactly. The beer is abysmal. Why anyone chooses to miss the last five minutes of the first half in order to queue up and pay for it is totally beyond understanding!

 

And on top of that end up spilling most of the beer trying to drink it, quickly so as not too miss too much of the match, in an overcrowded and bustling concourse.

 

Not my idea of a relaxing pint!

Does the catering contract ever have an end date? It seems to run on and on. 

Not like their food!

Maybe, but a £5 pint in a pub comes in a glass and actually has a head. Has anyone ever had any decent head on a pint of Chang in those horrible plastic cups?

Lager isn’t proper beer, it doesn’t matter. It’s like a trainer beer for people who aren’t ready for grown up drinking.

Not on match days, most around the ground come in plastic and are crap.

 

No as it's pretty much impossible to get a decent pint in a plastic glass. 

 

We are ridiculously expensive, but everywhere is these days, especially in events. 

 

The thing is the queues will be massive and people will still miss 5-10 mins of the game to drink down a pint they constantly moan about.

Think the prices are obviously higher but don't be a bellend and take it out on the concourse staff. It truly is one of the most miserable jobs out there and I hear whiny c+nts moaning at 17 year olds. Just fukking buy your pint, sink it and fukk off. Very ****ing lame and embarrassing to moan at minimum wage employees.

So I ordered a pie and beer at half time from one of the tablets and got told to que at collection point stood there for 20 mins only for a steward to turn up stating they had sold out due to others being in front of so how the **** does that work then if there is no stock don’t show on the screen as available now got to go through off-colour help to get a refund…. Still hungry though

It's actually now a requirement for 23/24. Security will be checking that all supporters have bought a pint (halves of shandy for U18s) or they wont be given a clapper and allowed to their seat.

 

The plan for 24/25 is that all fans must buy a £12 pint and a £10 hot dog.

 

25/26 will see the introduction of the wicker fan in the car park where all objectors will be placed, to be lit at the end of every home match for the delectation of compliant supporters.

oh Jesus christ

[FoyleFox]

The outside area area behind the kop was unreasonably small today. Why has that been reduced?

I want the victim star role. Maybe a 7 part drama on AppleTV+ starring Idris Elba

I was sitting in M1 yesterday, it’s still £5.80 for a Chang in that block. Not sure why it’s cheaper than the rest of the ground 🤷‍♂️

[Unabomber]

I paid for one beer and one teabag and it was £9  I know I didn’t need to and it’s my own fault but still those prices are insane
