Another new low

[DBTW]

Well said DBTW, I agree with you entirely regarding the principle at hand...

That pre-match food and drink promotions should be scrapped?

No, The prices are standard for a beer pre game. The price increases at half time and goes back to 'normal' after the game.

You could always complain to the club. I've heard Nicky Keyes is helpful.

Can You H&V fence sitters make up your minds

You criticise silhillvilla and Richard Moore because everything is shit and every post to negative
Then you criticise Westly for being to positive and not seeing reality

Maybe they have more extreme opinions on either side than those that choose a more middle of the road approach like me,
but it strikes me certain posters are just taking cheap shots at a lot of their posts because they think they have the backing of the majority of the site and feel all safe and warm in cumfortably numb situation

Gets a bit boring to read a post by Silhillvilla, RM or Westly to then know someone will have a pop for no real apparent reason, apart from they see the situation differently,
isn't that what the message board is about

Thank you John, glad you've noticed. I can guarantee to have any one of my posts on here descended upon by what seems like a flock of seagulls on a waste tip. Which is an apt analogy, as most posters think my views are garbage anyway. I'm perfectly ok about that though, this is just a football website where hundreds of people whose views I respect, but don't know, post their opinions. And it is by far and away the best Villa site around and always has been. There are far more important things in life than H and V, though not the Villa! Sadly, I know an awful lot of people who are good friends who have left the site for the reasons you cite but that is their choice and I feel they are missing out in the long run.

I've sent a PM to General Krulak

[Dave Cooper please]

First time I've seen this thread.

I see the title "Another new low" and immediately think we have had a Ched Evans style scandal involving one of our players, or Randy has popped over and taken a big shit on the centre-circle or something...but no, it's 20p on a pint, and that's it.

Another new low indeed eh?

Its the principle behind it Dave. Would Tamworth put the prices up at half time knowing there are no other available options to fans?

They have a Happy Hour before the game to entice fans into the clubhouse, so yes, the prices are higher at half time than they are before the game. By about 20p as well I think (no real ale so I don't drink in the clubhouse myself).

[DBTW]

Villa don't have a Happy hour though, they just increase the prices at half time.

Putting it mildly!

[Dave]

So what is the price before the match, at half-time and on a non-match day?

I don't know exact figures, sorry.

[Clampy]

Like I've said, I do think it's a bit unnecessary but I wouldn't go so far to call it 'a new low'.

This "Poor me" line is getting a bit monotonous now.

Why are you so positive then that the half-time price is an increased price rather than the pre-match being a decreased one?

As from what other people have said, many of the other outlets have promotions pre-match so surely it wouldn't be crazy to think that the Holte Suite might do the same?

I'm not saying that the club definitely aren't being terrible, rapacious bastards I just can't see why we're so sure that they definitely are.

[DBTW]

The lady behind the bar advised me of the half time increase.

The amount is irrelevant really, its the principle thats annoyed me.

There is a huge gulf between the club and the fans at the moment, they just dont seem to have any kind of idea any more.
