Providing a decent pie, pint and chips should be simple - some fans won't be interested as a bit of grub is not part of their match day experience. But for many it is - and for this reason alone the club should be doing much better.

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

I cannot understand why the club cannot have a bit of 'food zone' where they have various stalls selling a fusion of different world foods-Chinese, Indian-curries-samosas-bhajis etc, Crepes, Soups, Paella, Donor Kebab's, Jacket potato's as well as Burgers and Frankfurters. These stalls are in high streets food zones & markets all over the country. They are self sufficient in terms of equipment and may only need electricity to run part of their operation. In say the Holmesdale stand to find a stall selling 2 different curries as well as samosas & bhajis or to be able to buy a container full of stir fried chicken noodles would be amazing. Beats queuing for a burger!! If I was the club I would find 8-12 interested stallholders all selling different foods. give over say the frankfurter stand in the lower Holmesdale and another in the upper as well as 2 elsewhere in the ground divide up all the home games amongst them and have different foods sold each match. Also in all the bar areas you need appointed staff to just continually pour drinks out and take the tops off bottles, always having a supply of poured drinks ready when you are busy. Whilst having other staff only serving customers by picking up those poured drinks and already opened bottles.

I agree with pre poured drinks , it is done at festivals and rugby games so why not at Selhurst ?

I agree with the concept of a food zone although not necessarily your choices. I went to an outdoor concert in the summer where they had half a dozen pop up food sellers and the biggest queue seemed to be at the fish and chip stand and at cricket matches and Cheltenham race course it's pulled pork baps that draw in the customers

The last time I bought hot food at the ground was 2002. It was rank. There is simply no way I would start again.
