I would have thought they'd have to pay the club X amount to use the facilities, water, electricity and some sort of rent for the use of the catering vans.

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.


Flask, sarnies, and a mars bar in the good old, old days.

Old days? It's picnic central in the Upper! I will be joining the illegal party myself on Saturday.  Sarnies from Tesco pre match.

I cannot believe the amount of discussion taking place regarding a flipping Scotch Egg  

Surely the Scotch Egg now merits a chat topic/ thread of its own  

I sense that the Scotch Egg subject is a Boris Johnson style diversionary tactic to avoid the topic of Paul Hurst. I bet any minute now, Hursty will be announcing his Plan B.

You've got to love this message board for its true sense of amusement. Oh I did miss it when I wasn't allowed to be on here up until recently.

"Hurst out  yes out"

Be careful what you wish for.

We are 6th in the table and in a play-off place.

Southend are just out of the relegation places on goal difference and have just been placed under a transfer embargo.

I when looked at the accounts a few ago, they paid the X amount per season, it was peanuts, but easy money ie club dont have to anything, in my opinion lazy.
Much better if the club took control of the catering, especially when we have bigger attendances, the club benefits, not the caterers.

The club runs one outlet in the ground and that’s the kiosk as you enter the Upper. Based up on that offer this season to date I’d suggest that they keep it outsourced.

A licence agreement and bringing in a 3rd party is absolutely the right way to provide catering and refreshments in an organisation like GTFC. I work in a world with a similar set up and if the fees the vendor pays to the host are set up in a correct and equitable manner then it’s the easiest money the club could make.
