| Quote: Rach "Unlike the trend that seems to be for Clubs to tender out matchday catering to outside concerns.. The Cougars have gone the other way and booted out the overpriced Burger van and brought all the matchday food back under the control of the club,with great success.
A week a Sunday you'll find reasonably priced burgers ,hot dogs , chips n bacon butties ,as well as tea n coffee (£1) on sale at the back of the main stand at' Freddies Grill' plus an outlet selling local butchers pies n home made soup ( produced inhouse by our Aussie Prop Brendon Rawlins)
by the Hall of Fame Bar.
Plus our beers only £2.55 for lager and £2.35 for Worthies...
See you all there  but the principle that it's not a straight franchise and that the clubs will benefit from the success of the operation is enough to assure me that the thing was entered into with the best possible deal for the clubs and therefore the speccies in mind.
The bleat bleat bleat of those who think we're still at Thrum Hall and nothing's moved on since 1985 gets on my ends.
And Fax Machine, I only read, see and listen to the same things available to everyone else. I'm just prepared to see things from the perspective of others now and again, and with an open mind, which is something that a lot of people on here should do a bit more.

| Quote: Bubba "Thats different to how I am led to believe it works.
EMC pay the Council an annual licence for the right to do the catering and run the bars at the stadium. The clubs purchase matchday hospitality direct from EMC which they sell on to their sponsors. For example, the clubs may pay EMC £12.50 per person who is having a meal and the club then charges the person having the meal £30 which is where the clubs make their money on diners.'"
Doesn't that also include match ticket and parking? If so, they are making a loss. |

Doesn't include ticket and parking doesn't 'cost' as such. Apart from lost opportunity to charge.
Heck TS, they're aren't that stupid. Grant them some intelligence at least  |

To be honest I dont know what it costs at either club to have a pre-match meal or what EMC charge. It was purely a guess for examples sake.
And officeboy, its not like you to have had a drink of alcohol nature  |

I know, OB. But, I was stating what I believed I had seen advertised, (not the cost of a diners package), as part of the package and took Bubba at his thoughts on the cost. Daft, I agree.

Ironically, with many of the above operations being run by EMC. Coincidence?
Setting off for the Shay now, mine's a (£3) pint. |

Maybe they should have been offered the Shay contract instead of EMC. At least they're local.
