The food is utter crap, I don't touch it now.

When I did fancy a beer last season, it was half a nano second past a quarter to three so they wouldn't serve me a bottle of gnats piss. So fuck 'em.

I went to the CSKA Moscow home match. Refused beer because it was 'an evening kick-off'.

Perhaps the result of this poll should go to the General K.
I've moved from the Witton to the lower Hotle for this season, I'm hoping the food will be better! Mind you, when I used to sit in the upper Holte about 5 years back it was shit then.

I have to travel straight up after work for week games as I come from over 100miles away and therefore have to eat in or around the ground, it's all pretty shite. Ended up taking something up with me. You do feel that with a little more investment, then it could pay off....

I sit in the Upper Doug Ellis.

When it is a sweltering hot day, they run out of cold drinks, when it is freezing cold they run out of hot drinks (often before kick off)
There isn't as much food choice as other areas of the ground due to space, and again, they often run out.
The staff are incredibly slow and often can't work out how much change to give you. They have little or no manners and don't have the words 'please' or 'thank you' in their vocabulary.
I refuse to pay £1 or more for a 45p Mars bar.

The service is shit, the quality of food is poor and the price is a rip off. I gave up before Christmas last year and bring stuff into the ground now.

I've mentioned this to the General a few times, and he has pretty much said it is 'work in progress' - I guess O'Neill must be handling the catering as well as the transfer dealings.

Has anyone seen a spicy chicken baguette at Villa Park ?

Yes I had one last season.

Surely beer wasn't on sale then because it was a UEFA game?

What really does my head in , is the body search as you enter the Witton End, & when they find the 2 small bottles of water , purchased from a supermarket, to avoid paying @£1.80 /bottle in the ground,
they insist on me taking the tops off the plastic bottles,as I might use it as a missile.
however , I,ve now got over this by hiding spare tops ,about my person.
