    I like to get up 10 minutes before half time and go back about 10 minutes after to make sure I can sink at least two pints... sometime three. I always leave on about 85th minute to get to the pub before the que's start. I missed two of Rickies goals yesterday as I was to busy examing th contents of my pastie's. Shame but they were very nice and I caught his goals on the Iplayer so nothing much missed.

    I wish they'd start doing Nacho's. As I clearly spend more money then most in the stadium, I believe this gives me the right to have more of a say on the club.

    Why don't you just buy your ticket and stay in the concourse area, where you can eat and drink until the 85th minute. Then you can leave the stadium without bothering anyone at all. Watch all the goals later on iPlayer. Simple. ;)

    Nah they stop serving 10 minutes before the game and ten minutes after half time. Plus I like really enjoy making a point of leaving early and arriving late.

    Where the food is crap or not I usually partake of some of it as it adds to the experience of the day. Couple of warm beers in plastic bottles before hand, also add to the experience of the day, although out of context I would definitely complain if that was the food I got in a pub or restaurant!!

    But that would go against my motivation for going - Which is to annoy people like ou and then spout off in the pub about a game I hardly watched. I then summarise these points throughout the week on here.

    Nice idea, going up and down the same rows "scuse us mate, cheers mate"

    Substitute mate for:

    "Mush" in the Northam
    "Chap" in the Centre
    "Sir" in Chapel

    If they are only making 100% profit on food they are running the bargain of the century! (100%=cost(£2) sold(£4)) most catering companies pretty much run at 300-400% profit per item. Easy! ..........ish.

    Yes, that's good value. Don't forget to hold a banner or scarf up as you go, and you could double the number of fans which you annoy.<ok>

    I normally spend 20-30 pounds on SFC food & drink on a Match day.

    How the hell else do you expect our boys to run their flash motors FFS. <grr>

    I do hope you have enjoyed a baked bean diet over the previous 48hrs to provide appropriate scent to such madcap antics. A hacking yet productive cough is yet more icing on this particular cake.

    And the final icing on the icing, if there does seem to be some chance of Saints scoring, stop in your tracks to make certain that the poor fan behind misses the whole move and then move on once we have scored.

    Crayfish and rocket in an artisan baguette, served from one of Roy Keane's newly installed catering franchises.
