Well finally the East Stand is set to make its long awaited opening in just 7 days time, a great occassion for the fans of both clubs i should imagine with their respective opening dates within 2 days of each other, however there is a downside to this, as most of you will know from sunday the catering facilities will be run by EMC a company who have been known to charge £3 per pint, 80p per Chocolate bar and £1.70 for a soft drink among many other extortionate prices for food, they have also forced the old bar staff(who have been replaced very shoddily by all accounts) out due to stupid rules being imposed such as the bar closing 5 minutes after full time and taking some of the best sellers off the menu aswell as allowing the old burger vans to stay providing they abide to their prices, I personally don't think EMC are beneficial to any contingent of Shaymen or Fax fan and only serve to put a negative on the Matchday experience and a lot of Town fans are planning on boycotting these set of delinquents and I suggest you do the same by purchasing food and drink from outside sources and with a bit of luck it will force these Barstewards out.

That's not much more than the current price, is it? I only go to the SS at HT anyhow, so a boycott won't have much effect from me I'm afraid.

about £2.50 i think, the Pint isnt bad in comparison to the other prices, i seem to remember when we went to Leigh Genesis (think you've played at the LSV too which is run by EMC) it was £2.80 for a pint of coke!

Well they ran out of Bottled Lager in the outside bar last week, and The prices inside didnt affect me as they hadn't staffed up properely and I couldn't get near the bar.

JG1 raises some good points. 3 quid a pint is an absolute disgrace. On top of my increased entrance fee i now need to fork out 30 quid on beer per match, its gonna be a costly season. Lets hope the boys deliver

This sounds a bit LSV..ish. It's the Council's Stadium though. They've forked out the cash (on behalf of the electorate of course) so they get to decide i suppose.

Loving the hypocrisy of some.:

By bringing in an external contractor to do the catering, the Council have effectively created a middle man who also wants a slice of the profits. This was always going to lead to an increase in the cost of food and drink. You just hope common sense will be used in finding a balance of value for money and profit especially as the Shay is 5 minutes from the Town Centre rather than being out of town where choice is extremely limited.

I personally dont use the bars, but I do normally purchase a hot drink before the game and at half time, the cost being 90p per drink. If this increases dramatically then I shall definately bring my own. Its not that I am tight, but the increase would be for no value whatsoever, so I definately wouldnt pay it.

I usually enjoy staying round for a pint after the ame and seing Neil Arber interviewing the players, I'l be a bit gutted if it does close straight after the game to be honest

LSV is indeed EMC, it's £3 for a pint and £1.80 for a brew. Think it's about £2 for a bottle of coke but not 100%.
