Walsall Football Club - So Many Issues

Wasn’t that Ivor Bollockov?

Whodya nikkaabolokov

Gotta say for football ground standards, the food ay bad at that kiosk behind the cardboard cutout stand.

Demolished me cheeseburger half time like the strapping god-like modest man I am.

To his credit I did see Graham Whittaker before the game in the Lower. To be honest it wasn’t difficult to spot him - he did look rather out of place in his suit, but he was there and hopefully seeing first hand any issues as they arose.

I went to get a drink 10 minutes before half time and the girl said how they had no food and was waiting for some more.

I always have a bacon and egg sandwich at home before the game so no problem with food.

Glad to hear that your son enjoyed it. Shame he couldn’t have doubled up and operated my usual turnstile as well.

When I asked a steward why it wasn’t open and I couldn’t get in, he said that they hadn’t got anybody to operate it!

He said there’s an issue with the taps for the lager which was slowing things down a bit it’s being sorted before the next home game apparently

Ffs lol

If anyone went in the hub I think he was the only lad behind the bar so you’d have seen him lol

I was served by him - very friendly and polite.

Went to Chelsea v Zenit tonight - give me Walsall v Mansfield any day of the week!

These are the scanners at Chelsea that I assumed would follow after we introduced e-tickets. Suspect the cost is rather prohibitive for us.

Was all digital at Old Trafford on Saturday. No gatemen = problem and nobody to sort it.

Another digression into a previously never thought of problem cloaked as progress…

Its pathetic.

Lets just get a functioning efficient matchday ticket office and cash/debitcard manned turnstyles at all football clubs and forget the ridiculous digital/cashless agenda that’s being wafted in on the back of covid for whatever reason.

Maybe it’s worth an ‘ideas’ thread…

But I just saw this on twitter. Compare Grimsby’s match day food and innovation…

To ours:


I think myself and @funk_hits_the_fan have been wittering on about this for ages regarding the lack of any progressive or creative thinking with the match day experience - but surely it isn’t rocket science (or hard) to have in the ‘stadium bowl’ street food stands from good, local companies to build an identity and contribute to good feeling in our area - but also to provide much better food (and options) than the crap we are served.
