Well here I am on the terrace looking forward to another season of footie, paid my £13 and £3 for a program and decided to have a cup of coffee before kick off imagine my shock when they wanted to charge me £1.50 for the privilage ! Daylight bloody robbery imho thats the last time I buy anything from the van at stanley. How can they justify such a price hike?
 
Well me old chook, does modern tech make you aware of this reply whilest standing on the terrace? If so, whats the crowd like?
 
Thirsty probably! - I'll stick to my flask, proper coffee, can't do with dish water at £1.50 a go

:p chips up 50p to 2 pound:eek:, buttys and a flask next time me think;)
 
£13 to get in
£2-50 chips and gravey
£3 programme
£2 Golden goal tickets
£1-50 half time coffee not cheap ,but other grounds charge similar
 
I didn't buy anything, but noticed that pies are £2 each. Blatant rip off.
 
Certainly rip off prices them, bet their takings go down compared to last season, bet they blame it on price of gas!

I think I said it the other week but I'll repeat myself. They were charging £1 for a cup of tepid tap water the other week. Somebody else bought a double cheeseburger and was charged £5 'because a single was £2.50' , strange but he didn't get 2 teacakes :D
 
What a rip off, would definately take my own coffee, heat up a pie, wrap it in foil, still be warm at half time.
 
And here's me thinking they'ed hung dick turpin,turns out he's alive and well and still committing highway robbery.best solution don't buy from them and see how quickly they bring down their prices.


ACCY TILL I DIE AND THEN SOME.......:alright:
 
maybe the food vans are saving up to bye use some players with there new prices was a rip off :hesoff:

Hollands 2 for £1-30 at Morrisons (used to be a quid) so one in either inside pocket should see you have a warm hearty feast come half time :D

I agree, perhaps a boycott would work, however it would be very difficult to organise, and in all honesty probably immposible! However I shall continue my one man campaign for the rest of the season..............come the revolution Brothers and Sisters!!!!:alright:

I'm right with you Cowboy!!..although I think there are
more sinister strategies afoot !!...Is it paranoid of me to suggest that the Football Fan's traditional feast of Pie and peas at Half-Time is under fire from some Poltical agenda?...Could this be the very last straw, as far as 'The Credit Crunch' hitting the pocket of the Working Classes is concerned ??...or are my fears just Pie-in- the Sky ?..( With Mushy Peyz of course!)
Whatever the answer...I don't think that a revolution will be necessary...Fans just WILL NOT fork out the exorbitant prices displayed at present on the walls of the Refreshment Purveyors Trailer !!....Particularly those on th'owd age penshun'..
However, I dare bet that as whatever is said and written about this matter, the prices will be just the same at the last Home game of the Season !!..Have you ever seen them come down ???.
