I think spurs brew their own beer, so all the profit and it's a large one goes to them.

 

You should have the option to 'Butty up" you're order.
There's not much that can't be improved by sticking it in a breadbun

 

Noticed at the Fiorentina game how many kids were buying the food during the game. It’s more like a baseball atmosphere now and in all fairness I’m not sure that’s a bad thing. The more kids that come the better for the future

 

I might try it one game. I'm not a huge fan of that bar. Like the away game idea

 

It's pricey with a full family but the way I see it is the ticket prices are cheap for kids so I never object to buying them some food as I know the club need that revenue too.

 

I can't speak for anyone else of course, but I can't see any taking an angle of being 'mad' or 'angry' here.

Granted, we seem to be on the cusp of a new age of extremes, but if we see anger in these discussions about food and its role in the changing times of football, then perhaps we are more ****ed than I thought.

 

I only went to the dugout as my wife’s disabled and it’s easy to get a drink whilst being close to the ground. The new refurb has massively improved it mind

 

I laugh because they're so clearly targeted at a certain type of effeminate manchild with more money than sense. The type who collect Superman figurines and personalise their Nintendo Switches. That's why they have to sell ribs, which Englishmen have been eating since time immemorial, as 'South Carolina ribs' even though they've just slapped some plastic cheese and coleslaw (Dutch) on them

 

We must have a different sense of humour

 

We’ll have no tasty food around here thank you.

 

What the ****s a spice?!

 

Have vivid memories of my mate experiencing similar in south stand.

Over filled cup of tea served in one of those wafer thin brown plastic cups. Zero insulation from the molten liquid contained within.

Even if he wasn't spilling it all over his hand it would still be pretty painful.

Pissing myself as he screams argh, argh, aaaaargh before dumping it on the ground.

Anyway, got the Marvin is a tiger email while I typed this.

 

I'm a little unsure about a Chicken balti pie being classed as "traditional food". Weren't they introduced by Pukka pies a few decades back and at best were "over-priced southern pies"?

As Erik suggested, we have a generation of adults who actually choose to go to sub-standard outlets like McDonalds when there are far better options available so can understand they are dazzled by the allure of the pretty pictures of City's food.

I'm from the generation that made the **** football a fun day out by leaving the pub for 90 minutes for a bit of a singsong though, so can't say I was any better I guess

 

What is the deal with food income now anyway?

Is it not externally catered any more? Do City make a bucketful of coin from sales?

 

I think your reply was meant for somebody else

 

I imagine the caterers pay a fee to set up in the ground. Same as happens at festivals and such like.

 

I don't think it is any more. City or the SMC have a guy who heads it all up and they make it in-house. A lot of the ingredients are supplied by Cranswick.

 

yea, cranswick provide the 'meat' so to speak i believe which is a pretty local company
the rest is in house

 

The problem now is because it’s popular people are leaving their seats 5 minutes before half time and coming back when the second half has already started …they have come to watch football not have a meal…same people usually leave early to avo8d tge rush at full time.
