Doesn’t everything need to be FFP compliant though? In other words - paying for itself rather than speculating too accumulate?
Another triumph for Doug Ellis lower catering. To reduce the hot drinks queue one kiosk simply ran out of milk at the beginning of half time. A cold drink, noooo, the full chiller cabinet was padlocked and they could not find the correct key. More money lost for the club, but why care we will all be back next Sunday to be treated like an inconvenience again.
I am pretty sure that it is possible to put an extra train on on the nights we have a game because the tracks aren’t crowded at that time of night so there would no doubt be a slot getting in and out of New Street.However - as there are no ticket checks due to the numbers of people they need to move onto the platform in a short space of time, I’m not sure what the benefits would be for the train provider.It is a nightmare though, and I am now resigned to driving to night games as Leaving at full time I don’t get on a train til 10.40.
