Re: all i wanted was a bloody burger
The point is, you don't have to. If you don't like the prices, don't buy - there are plenty of others that will.
It's entirely possible to have food and drink before the game, so if you don't like what's on offer, or don't want to pay for it, don't. And stop moaning about it.
Thanks Joey said:yousawmestandinalone said:You're making stuff uyp now because you've lost the argument. I'm not on any high horse, I'm simply pointing out that even tho stuff has gone up a bit, the whole thing will cost a fmaily max of an extra 10 pounds a fortnight for the increase in prices of food and drink (and that only if there's a few of you). You tried to claim it was going to cost 30 quid extra on top of what you already spend and I rightly corrected you as that would mean you were already spending about 60 quid, which unless you're a bunch of right fattiest eating six burgers and oints each, is impossible.
Nobody's on a high horse here bar you, about a price increase. In case you haven't noticed, we're in the middle of a recession. The price of EVERYTHING - EVERYWHERE has gone up over the last 12 months. Do you stop driving cos fuel's 10p a litre dearer? Stop eating bread costs 20p a loaf dearer? No.
You may be quite right in saying that it's only £10 per fortnight extra, but there comes a point in every family's budget when they stop and say "enough is enough" and don't forget you're talking about £10 extra on what is already not the cheapest day out. Do we stop driving because fuel is 10p a litre dearer?...No, but we drive less and pick and choose when we do.
The points you make about fuel and bread have nothing to do with this discussion on food and drink prices at CoMS and the service level. Fuel and bread are necessities to live, City is leisure time. I certainly wouldn't buy a family meal plus drinks at CoMS or City square every time City play, because it's so expensive and from my experience of only the beer, the quality is shockingly poor.
I appreciate what the club is attempting to do for the fans, but when I can buy a beer that actually tastes like beer for £2.50 up the road, why would I pay £3.90 for an inferior product?
