Hurst out   yes out

Quoted from ginnywings

Lowering the prices wouldn't result in more sales. The queue for the bar is constant from the moment it opens until it shuts. Not so full after the game ends, but the bar is always busy.

I've not been in there much as a paying customer because it is usually one in one out by the time I get to the ground, but when I have been in, I have never seen the bar staff with no one to serve.

I made that point with a view that another fan zone could be positioned adjacent to the Pontoon Stand. Now that the concept of the Fan Zone has been used and it has proved so popular then another could be installed. Two zones might reduce the need for "one in, one out" and still be busy.

I wondered this, perhaps adding a second alleviates some pressure and potentially provides an opportunity for more to utilise it.

I couldn’t give a shite about price but I don’t go in Becauee I don’t have kids and it’s always ‘one in one out’ so just go to the Blundell. I’d much rather use the fanzone but choose not to at this stage…

Scotch eggs (***) are becoming Grimsby’s version of straight bananas.

No wonder it’s so easy to indoctrinate the stupid when people become obsessed with one breadcrumb in a (round rolled) sausage fest.

There’s a f*ckin whole deli. Selling an artisan scotch egg doesn’t negatively impact the quality of the person on the counter.

It must be nice to "not give a shite about the price". Different world to me.

Taking on board the feedback from here, I hope a second fanzone would be stocked with Carling and cheap food.

Funny you should say that, they are the words that spring to my mind when reading your ramblings.

Obviously tongue in cheek. There are some good bitters out there and lagers. Not necessarily cheap food but maybe not as expensive. Like I mentioned in a previous post I think £4 for a Scotch egg is excessive even if the quality is better than your supermarket version.

First of all I don't think it is " shortsighted " to question the affordability of the catering at the club.While I do agree that the more money we take in catering then the the better it is for the club , there is another aspect to this. I have never visited the fan zone but I am led to believe that a pint of beer is £4 and a Scotch egg is also £4. Whilst I accept that  at pub prices £4 a pint is on the high side of local prices, I think £4 for a Scotch egg is very expensive. A total of £8 for a drink and a snack pre-game is beyond my budget and I suspect many others. Ok, so I am a pensioner on a fixed income but I suspect many minimum wage workers would also find it beyond their budget.

You’re missing the point. Some people on this thread are moaning about performances, saying they’re not good enough and moaning about expensive beer and scotch eggs. Effectively they’re saying fancy scotch eggs don’t win you three points on a Saturday. But they can help! To make it absolutely clear, the point I made was that a busy catering facility (selling expensive stuff) is good for the club because ultimately it means more money to spend on better players (and facilities that help improve performance). Why would the club turn down such a bonanza?

I get it that it’s too expensive for some pockets. It wasn’t exactly cheap before, but it was utter garbage. I stopped getting food and drink in BP. But you don’t have to eat in the ground. No one does. You have a choice.
