| The profits from the sale of food and what passes for alcohol is split and its not very favourable to FC . So by taking your own you will not be huirting the club much but you will be kicking SMC where it hurts.
The beer is and always has been garbage, so why moan now  |

These lot wouldn't even stand a chance at getting a job at Mcds, they are that bad!
I waited in the que for the first time in a couple of years, on Friday, and was shocked at how bad it still is, it took 20 mins to get served and I only had 7 people infront of me. When I did get to the front of the que, they had ran out of bitter and burgers(both things I wanted), how on earth do you run out of your most popular drink on a matchday, not only do we have idiots serving, we have them doing the ordering.
I can't understand why they dont just use backers to get the que moving, have one serving, while the other gets the drinks/food. All they need to do is show a bit of hussle and there wouldnt be a problem.
Also why do they serve the food in the same que as the beer, in Australia they have them seperate and you never have a problem getting served food cos your not stuck behind a huge beer que. I know the KC is not designed in a way you could do this but you could at least have a food only till.
I know alot of you are not going to agree with this but letting the fans drink in the stands will help to stop the huge ques at half time.

then people complain because they have been queing for hours and didn't realise they couldn't buy beer, so have to queue again. I believe it was like this for a while when it first opened. |

Bigger issue is that after standing in the queue for 10 mins theyve sold out of everything. |

| Quote: Karen xx "Exactly what I meant.
There are plenty of places around the stadium that you can grab a couple of pints before or after the game for a fraction of the price.
While people are accepting the prices, nothing will change.'"
You should of said that first time then, i read you comment the same way 
And what do people who do not have time to go to these other outlets or come from the wrong side of the stadium do ? |

Fun fact of the day: The pies at the KC Stadium are bought at a wholesale price of 3 pence each.

A big sign saying 'Food Only Till' should sort that problem out, if people still que there, then your an idiot! |

Be better to have a "slop only" till, then we'd know where the beer queue was!
Why anyone buys anything from those concessions is beyond me, until half time, when I fancy a pint, and then I just do it out of habit! |

| Quote: Raggytash "Let's not forget that as supporters, we are expected to support our club financially. It is much better knowing the profits from the beer you're consuming is helping your club. I for one usually order myself 2 pints at halftime despite the fact the very first sip makes me feel sick. I don't know if the deal with the SMC is still set that our potential to profit from beer sales is considerably reduced, but as long as I'm under the impression that Hull are benefiting from my irresponsible drinking, I'll consider to consume the filth. I also think this gives me the right to continually complain the the product is woefully lacking.'"
I presume that you mean you place an order for two pints so that they can prepare them in time for the next home game?
Actually, if you ordered anything at the Bradford game, you might be lucky seeing as they have the entire off-season to train the staff in how to take and prepare your order. Although whatever you do, they'll probably still present you with four beef soups and a broken plastic fork and ask for 600 Hong Kong dollars. |
