City Square open for testing

[blueyorkie]

I am amazed that some on here are slagging the club off , before its even opened. Surely give it a try before jumping to conclusions.

City have added another option for fans, where's the problem? People can still drink in town or Mary D's or one of the other local pubs if they want but now there's an alternative for other fans instead of going into the rather soulless concourses for a pie and a pint.

As for the prices, well if they were lower would the club really want thousands of fans all turning up in City Street trying to get served? I'm not sure tbh, maybe they just want manageable numbers hence the prices are less attractive. It'll be interesting to see how it turns out in practice.

I read it perfectly well thanks, my argument is about all prices, not just beer, its just an example of being ripped off.

I've seen plenty of comments about the food prices, which are equally extortionate in my opinion. You can get a meal in Asda cafe for under £4 for instance. The cafe down towards the Mitchell does a good meal for about £3, the Chinese behind the Mitchell does excellent english, and chinese meals for similar prices, and you get pleasant friendly service there, because it really matters to these people that you come back.

So far I can only comment about the City "experience" in the stadium, and its piss poor, and outrageously priced, maybe this will be better quality and service I don't know, but it doesn't sound any better priced.

Thanks but no thanks City, I'll spend my hard earned money where I get the best value for money, so if as a club you want more of my money then the answer is simple improve quality and service and reduce price to compete sensibly.

You said that in my post I implied that I had a personal problem with Bladdered. I intentionally said in my post that I did not. Therefore, if, in fact you did read my post perfectly well, then you deliberately misrepresented me. |On the other hand, maybe u cannot see the wood from the trees. Must be all that cheap beer ur suppin.

Thats the reply from someone who has lost the argument. End of. You completely avoided all the point's he made. SAD

Dont join a discussion half way through the thread and presume to know what u r talking about kid. Most of his post was unrelated to a previous point we were discussing. I find it difficult to take anybody seriously who appears in a thread halfway through, uses term such as "end of" and has a post history such as yours. Now do yourself a favour and go away child.<br /><br />-- Mon Aug 23, 2010 12:30 am --<br /><br />

Thanks everyone :) Just an update and end to thread.......its all off. We spoke last night on the phone and the mood was sour to say the least. I then wrote a very very long e-mail early this morning basically saying goodbye to her. And she replied in kind. Pub this afternoon then. Come on Fulham!!...

pbibs. Can you tell me why you think that everyone who drinks alcohol behaves irresponsibly?

 

[Ricktee76]

I prob won't use it that much but will drop round to see it and get a taster before judging it, like i say prob stick to shambles or mary d's for my pre-match routine. Got to give it a fair crack of the whip before deciding if its a thumbs up or down.

You said that in my post I implied that I had a personal problem with Bladdered.

No I asked why you had a problem with someone who did want a few pints before the game, not bladdered personally. I've no idea of your history watching City, but for many, in fact the majority, that was part of going to the football, part of the much laboured expression "experience", its not a theme park, its a football match, thousands go, many "experience" it different ways, you implied there was something wrong with people who have a few pints.

As for....

Must be all that cheap beer ur suppin.

Just a cheap jibe, which failed to find its mark.

I don't however see much response to the reasoned argument as to why City might want to rethink the pricing, if they do actually want to create extra revenue from this "experience", which as jrb points out above was supposed to be the original idea behind it.
