simo Posted 9 August, 2014 Author Posted 9 August, 2014 Not food in the northam at half time , thought there was going to be a riot! Ran out apparently
S-Clarke Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 Not food in the northam at half time , thought there was going to be a riot! Ran out apparently To be fair, the walk up was pretty emphatic. Doubt they expected that turn out.
The Kraken Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 To be fair, the walk up was pretty emphatic. Doubt they expected that turn out. How do you work that out? The club tweeted about 14K tickets sold beforehand, and the total attendance was 17K or so. Hardly a huge proportional extra.

BlakeySFC Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 Oh Criminy! No overpriced sh!tty burgers, chips and pies available in the Northam, poor Saints fans. Do yourself a favour and get a Wagamama before heading to the match.

Turkish Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 No nothing , would of been nice to get the boy a hotdog or something at halftime He'll thank you for it in later life. When he's in supreme shape, working out 5 days a week, ladies dripping off him, he'll remember the days his old man didn't force feed him processed crap and eating clean is far better.
manji Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 Not food in the northam at half time , thought there was going to be a riot! Ran out apparently I do not get the obsession with the food at half time. People leaving there seats to get in the queue and getting back 10 mins late. i always make sure I have a snack before the game and often go for a meal afterwards. Is this the only time some people eat out or something ?

Is this the only time some people eat out or something ? People are greedy. Stuffing their faces at every chance they get. It's not normal practice for people to go and throw burgers down their throats at 3.45 in the afternoon so why they feel the need to eat as much as possible when they set foot inside a football stadium is beyond me.

Is this the only time some people eat out or something ? Its crap grub anyway, overpriced rubbish. I dont even bother grabbing a beer at HT, I just cant be arsed, 4.50 for a carlsberg I need to cue for 20 mins for and leaves me with 2 mins to down ! Still, everyone to their own

simo Posted 9 August, 2014 Author Posted 9 August, 2014 Whatever your views on eating at SMS there should be enough food for those that do want to eat
Golden Balls Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 Shock horror, not everyone likes to do the same thing as you. Let people moan about food, or lack of. Why moan about people moaning about something you apparently don't care about?

Is this the only time some people eat out or something ? That's why American sports are superior. Our games are always starting and stopping so there is plenty of time to eat.
Saint George Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 That's why American sports are superior. Our games are always starting and stopping so there is plenty of time to eat. Not to mention getting our beer brought to our seat
supergoose Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 Bought 2 x coffees plus a mars and a bag of minstrels at the match today for £8!!
a1ex2001 Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 Not to mention getting our beer brought to our seat If only football fans weren't such a bunch of idiots it's great to be sat in your seat with a beer at the rugby sevens or similar. Never eaten food at a footy ground it all looks and smells like crap and costs silly money!
BlakeySFC Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 What I usually do is eat around lunch time, have a few beers and then get to the ground about 2:30pm with a bottle of pre-bought water in my pocket. I'm full so don't need to buy any crap in the stadium, and don't need to miss any of the match needlessly by queuing up for Beers/Food at half time.
Jonnyboy Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 Take a hipflask of rum in like me, no food needed.

This ,I had an excellent week sat in the sun drinking cider and eating curry at the cricket the other week !
simo Posted 9 August, 2014 Author Posted 9 August, 2014 On another note they now have an app at sms so you can order you food and collect it (in a dedicated queue) at half time or before the game haha
Whitey Grandad Posted 9 August, 2014 Posted 9 August, 2014 That's why American sports are superior. Our games are always starting and stopping so there is plenty of time to eat. Does the sport ever get in the way of the eating?
wadesmith Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 No hot food at half time , Amateur mistake IMO! Jeez mate, you were asking us in another thread to boycott the game. Then you turn up and moam about the lack of food. You do seem a bit of a whinger. No offence.

Give it to Ron Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 Don't think I will buy in the ground again. Went in new pub Spitfire in town cheap food £2.20 a pint of Ringwood
wadesmith Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 If I think I have something to moan about I'll moan Ha! So we agree you are a whinger! In the boycott the game thread you started you moaned about the club milking fans for money. Heres a tip...don't buy a hot dog at a grossly inflated price....hope this helps!

Heres a tip...don't buy a hot dog at a grossly inflated price....hope this helps! Yeh if you say so haha if I have something to say I'll say it weather people want to hear it or not (my only flaw) , and if my boy says he's hungry and wants something to eat I expect to be able to feed him no matter how crap the food or how much it costs!

Fair play fellah! Good to see you and your boy had a change of heart! Next time though take sanswiches. Those hot dogs will catapult you into the coronary high risk bracket by the time your 55! And lets face it we're gonna need all the fans we can get soon!
TwoPints Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 On another note they now have an app at sms so you can order you food and collect it (in a dedicated queue) at half time or before the game haha I had a look at that app when I got home yesterday but you can't select St. Mary's as a venue!
Redslo Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 Does the sport ever get in the way of the eating? Not for me. I watch on TV and pause the DVR as necessary.
Goatboy Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 If I think I have something to moan about I'll moan I knew my wife had a login on here.
Charlie Wayman Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 No hot food at half time , Amateur mistake IMO! Bloody hell Simo, the season hasn't even started and you're moaning about nothing. Was the beer cold so what's your problem, you don't need to stuff your face every time you go to a football match surely? It's only 90 mins FFS.

Read the ****ing thread my son was hungry not me running out of food before halftime is school fete class planning I expect better and so did everyone who wanted food in the north am too , not everyone goes to fill themselves full of beer
buctootim Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 I had a pie and pint before the game and wore light coloured cargos. Thats both the food and fashion police I've upset.
Saint IQ Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 Make food before you go, healthier and/or nicer and much cheaper
SaintRobbie Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 No hot food at half time , Amateur mistake IMO! Is that why most of the Northam sat down? Pie protest?
sadoldgit Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 No hot food at half time , Amateur mistake IMO! Apparently Brendan Rogers bought all the pies during the week at 4 times the retail value. (ps is your name Mr Angry?)
Whitey Grandad Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 Apparently Brendan Rogers bought all the pies during the week at 4 times the retail value. (ps is your name Mr Angry?) The gristle was still there but the heads were already in Liverpool.
tpbury Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 Calling Turkish, JohnB(?), Jonnyboy(?), Tokyo, Bearsy et al to this thread. It begins again!
sadoldgit Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 The gristle was still there but the heads were already in Liverpool. Bloody hell Whitey, what kind of pies do you eat???
Whitey Grandad Posted 10 August, 2014 Posted 10 August, 2014 Bloody hell Whitey, what kind of pies do you eat??? The crunchy meaty ones. You?
70's Mike Posted 11 August, 2014 Posted 11 August, 2014 oh for the days when we had first class catering which we could eat listening to our own radio station whilst knowing we were insured by our own insurance company
