Nice. Queues should be half the size this season then.

Maybe I'm just used to London prices, but £4.20 doesn't seem outrageous to me. About £3.80-£4.00 seems to be the going rate, so an extra 20p for a captive audience in a football stadium seems about right. I paid £5.20 in a pub the other day. £5.20!! Now that is taking the piss. You used to be able to get 8 cans for that. Imagine what the atmosphere at the Amex would be like if you could get 8 cans for a fiver.

The price of a pint is fair but over £4 for a pie is so wrong. Not that i buy them and certainly won't ever be tempted now.

I don't know, how much is a pukka pie in most grounds? £2.50? And they are rank. I'd much rather pay £4 for a nice pie. Also, it's much easier for the fans to control the price of a pie. Eat before you get to the ground and don't buy them if they are too much, and the club will have to drop the price. Pints are a different story because it's harder to not have them at the ground for a lot if people!

Wasn't £3.90 last season? A bit bloody steep to rise by 30p, around 7.5%, in 3 months. No doubt I will still pay it, presuming the STH discount it still there.

I would pay £4+ for a nice pie, so I will have to buy elsewhere. Furthermore a drop in demand for sub standard pies will not necessarily lead to a drop in price. It could lead to an increase. especially if we were able to sell them to Leicester, of course.

From memory the Swan was charging £3-something for a nice pint of Palmers last season. If they don't get greedy and match the club they'll get all my custom now.
