Is that from the chippie outside opposite the shop? I had that before the Bolton game and thought £6.50, as it was, was reasonable but 2 normal sausages and chips for the same price was expensive.

Yes it was - actually it might have been the scampi that was £7 but you were right it did make the sausages look pricey
Having read Paul Barber's recent comments reference the current financial position, I wouldn't be surprised if it is just the tip of the iceberg...

Genuine question (you get far too much grief on here) what is a "normal sausage".

Only my second game this season, what is that marquee outside ? Is that where you get the normal sausage ?
Can you get a beer with one outside ?

FFS. Has everyone already forgotten that paying £12.50 for something that you get from a petrol station for three quid is vital if you don't want any more players to be sold? Please give generously. Thank you.
I'm in a quandary now. Is it a burrito or is it a chamois leather?

Sold as the former, tastes like the latter.

Yeah but as we now know, the club only has a small window of opportunity to sell these things so that makes it ok.

It's (also) worth pointing out that you pay for the priviledge of eating that for that price.
Football really needs to take it's head out of it back****.
Not a 1901 member obviously but if I was I would be angry at that.
I would have thought I'd paid quite enough not to be taken advantage off. Expect a premuim not a rip off.
I'm fascinated by the economics being explained. Only open once a week and therefore have to charge more because we can't keep food over for the next day.
Sounds like a job for Gordan Ramsey.
