Can you please sort it out people should not have Queue for 25 mins for a cup of Tea at Halftime, I queued today but last match said Bollocks and went without and I wasn't the only one...

They’ve had half of the kiosks shut for the last few home games. Always a bizarre decision. I end up not spending anything as no way I’n queuing for that long. Suspect many others do the same

Costcutting measures, less staff to bring in but even with our lower crowds, that amount of time to get served isn’t good enough.

Yeah, I don’t bother anymore either, used to spend anywhere between ten and fifteen quid at halftime for me and the grandkids, if they can afford to lose that every game then the cost cutting measures are great

Yup. Junior Ramone wanted a pie and a tea. Gave up.
Me. I brought my own hot chocolate.

Same in the cowshed bar.

I’m not sure I’ve ever known another business make it so difficult for its customers to spend money.

Those in the bars drinking their poison and those queuing all half time for their Brovil and pizzas (yuck), may have missed the league 1 scores shown on the screens instead of league 2 scores. No wonder the players were confused in the 2nd half or were they over confident?

I noticed that too - I was expecting it to move on to L2 but no such luck! It's like the wrong opponent's badge shown on the turnstile machines before Christmas - you just wonder how it's possible. Are they employing match day people behind the scenes who genuinely don't understand football?

It used to be a challenge getting half time coffee when we had bigger attendances but I could just about make it each time and didn't really mind. A hot drink would have been welcome yesterday but given the zombie state that the club seems to be in off the pitch I just can't be bothered anymore
