| I'm glad you like the smooth. So do I. One of the big bug bears I have is how many people will drink and eat outside rather then inside the ground. Especially the burger van in con club car park!! I'm sure we can't be that more expensive then him!!

Maybe someone giving 50p discount cards off a burger & chips meal out to people walking up Doncaster rd before they get to the con club and stipulate its for in ground eateries only.

| I can understand that if it was only saints fans that were using it. But it's not. It's Wakefield fans who all know that we now serve drinks and food at, what I think, is not over the top prices, and every bit of it goes back into the club. Instead they give their money to third parties who are only in it for profit. The burger van at cons club used to be inside the ground and took about 3 k a game. And paid about 200 quid!!!!

| No, I presume they have an arrangement with the cons or the council (nudge nudge hint hint)

| Quote: Harry Pinner "Ended up having to queue up at the ticket office for ages, the most amateur, disorganised, chaotic ticket office I've ever been to. We were waiting over 20 minutes to buy tickets even after we'd reached the front of the queue. Then we couldn't find our seats, even the steward didn't know where they were so we just sat down on some seats marked reserved as the game was starting, nobody seemed to mind. Then Nathan Brown and KC came and sat down on the seats behind us...'"
how bad is your schooling that you could find the correct gate to enter that has letters 8" high and couldn't work out which row of seats by looking at the start of each row and then look at the seat number

| My schooling was fine thank you. I went to the right section but the seat and row number were nowhere to be found. So I asked a steward who just waved vaguely at the area we'd ready looked in. So I asked him again and he just completely blanked me. As far as we could make out the seat numbers related to seats in a sort of directors box area and I couldn't see 3 empty seats together anywhere else so that's where we sat.

Yes agree with you on this. Cats bar staff really efficient serving drinks n food. Pie counter to other side of north stand have the queue moving at a reasonable pace but one near exit was woefully slow. My wait was about 10 minutes for a coffee during first half and were only about 5 people before me in queue.
Saw a fair few start to queue then gave it a miss when they saw speed of serving staff.

| Quote: wtid71 "Can't say fairer than that. On a positive the Thwaite's beer in Cats bar is spot on. Only wish more of our supporters would get in there before the game to help boost OUR clubs coffers.
Out of interest how much a pint is Thwaites? Some clubs in cas are selling it for 40p a pint less than smiths/tetleys and its not a bad pint now, a lot different from the old days in Blackpool. I dont begrudge paying a few extra bob for a drink in a sports stadium as long as it isn't a blatant rip off and i think we are spoilt a little with cheap prices in working mens clubs and wetherspoons.
