I have raised this with the trust and they will take it up with the club

The problem lies with Compass who are the contractors for the catering, this is a legacy that Ridsdale has left behind. The catering instead of being done by the club was passed to outside caterers, so effictivley they can charge what they want.

I somehow doubt that they would be donating any of their profits to Keenor Fund

I must admit that I find it absolutely incredible that two topics on the same issue as been asking the same question for days and no-one has answered.

Personally if it was going towards the fund I wouldn't mind but others think differently. However is the reason behind the slience because the fans are so split on the issue..?

COME ON TRUST SHOW US SOME BACKBONE!!! :evil:


You are another one with an agenda against the Trust, the question has been asked and GJ has responded, as you are obviously opinionated how many emails have you sent the club or phone calls have you made on the matter?

Why the trust ? you could start a campaign about the prices of food and drink Compass are charging if your that annoyed about it we would all back you

There is only one way to combat Compass' ridiculous prices.

...A complete boycott!

Leaflets/internet campaign/Supporters club/Trust... everyone get the
message out to totally snub the food outlets. One game will do it.

Compass have in fact been given a monopoly by Ridsdale, f**k knows
how fat his envelope was, but they can charge what they like. They have
a 'captive audience'..

One week where they dont make any money will be enough, any business would
sooner make some profit than no profit.

Its not rocket science.

Plus, the board is now pretty much 'onside' with the fans now, they will also bring
pressure to bear on Compass

Ive asked this question before but no-one knew. It would be interesting if we were to find out.


def.... if the club could sort this out, they can get their catering teams in... thus creating more jobs, and revenue for the club...

No due to their support of Peter Ridsdale over the ticket scam


Yet you're demanding answers from them?

Suprised you and willy haven't blamed Labour yet.

OK fair enough, I wasn't aware of that. It seemed a bit hypocritical, demanding answers from an organisation that you weren't a member of.

No more drinking at the ground for me............not at those prices ............if everyone done the same we may see some sense.
no reason for the beer to be above £3-00 a pint...............its pure greed.
