New bottle/pie bar.

Fans maybe not, but volunteers often are!!!

Holkerbird said FANS - I can understand volunteers being hungry.

[The Tomahawk Kid]

Not trying to be negative - I applaud the efforts of the people involved.

The club's future isn't looking too rosey at the moment - on or off the pitch.
I just don't think pies are that important in the grand scheme of things.

Asda's next door!

Why would any fan be in the ground at 12.00?/6pm?

Let me get this right. You'd rather money went into ASDA's coffers than the club's? I'll tell you this: whenever I drive down from Scotland without lunch I'll be heading straight to the pie bar. Well done folks.

P.S. I'm not obese.

Good for you.

Regarding the club's coffers - if the club is NOT intending to bake the pies themselves surely they'll be someone other than Asda making money?

Why don't you eat before driving from Scotland? Silly to drive on an empty tummy...

Fans are there at those times to meet up with friends and have a good natter, that's why the club opens at those times. Put some money over the club bar. It's no different to going to the Tally Ho or other pubs early.
Why would it matter to you what people eat or what time they go out? It won't be interfering with your day.

[Van Der Nipper]

Asda don't do hot pies so stop worrying about that.

Why shouldn't we encourage fans to come to the club from 12 until 6 - keep them there till midnight if they can. if the club wants to be sustainable it needs to increase its match day spend per head well done.. Next they need to work on making money without having to go on the cross bar.

THK must reject invitations to night do's that have pie and peas on offer.

He has his tea before he goes... unless it’s near Asda

[Jonty]

THK, look beyond your own anti-pie, “why not eat at home before the match” logic, and just recognise this as a positive initiative that the majority are happy to see given a go after years of no pie option at the ground.

No I bet goes but has a nice meal before hand, then bores everyone telling them that he's already eaten,

I like pies, Barrow likes pies, football supporters like pies, no brainer, stop dictating to people when they can/cannot eat pies.

Questions; What's apiecost and when are we be being sanctioned to eat said food of the Cowps gods.
Oh, and thank you to those that made it all possible.

[Pedro]

Has anyone thought about pre paying and ordering drinks for half time to cut any waiting time down and increase flow and therefore revenue

@Jonty has sent me a link to an app that allows this Pedro. It's on a list of about 100 things to look into but we'll get to it! For now the bottle bar will hopefully ease a bit of the congestion at HT.

Thanks

It's a positive thing, always been a pain a) the half time queue b) no food to soak up the ale c) I did hear and hope card payments at the bar d) Really nicely freshened up corporate rooms e) More places to put your pint. Alot of hard work been put in, absolute hats off to all. . There's an event on Saturday from just before 1pm, much more about that tomorrow. Hope folk will get involved too.

It's a great idea - my prediction is they will go down like hot cakes- often wondered why we don't serve pies - queues will move quicker - see more of the match- staff will be happier- customers will be happier - Barrow is officially pie capital of the north - club will take more money - happy days !!
