Is there no way the pavements from the Witton/Trinity could be temporarily fenced off, with the area around the McGregor statue used as outside catering at half time? They do something similar at Leeds, and it works very well, although they don't have the issue of public roads both sides like we do.

However, there are fundamentals with the existing catering company that need to be either sorted out with that company, or by the club getting themselves out of the contract and into a new one. The staff are never the same, so guessing the company we use has high turnover, low pay, low job security work, which is poor in the first instance in terms of the club being associated with that, if its true, but it also means that you have different staff (mostly teenagers) being thrown into it every week without seemingly knowing what to expect. Im in danger of boring myself through repetition, but just research how much of each alcoholic drink is ordered pre game and at half time and pour loads of bloody pints! Same with having enough of each popular food item, have enough of that food a available! There also doesn’t seem to be any management or supervision of the catering stsff, in the lower holte at least, so those poor kids are left to flap about. After my 25 min wait at half time for two soft drinks and a pint, the young girl then had to go off to find a plastic cup and pour my individual pint.
Another one in a long list of reasons for knocking the whole thing down and starting again somewhere else.
