    Do you mean before or after the contract negotiations that are currently going on are concluded. The club are well aware of the issues surrounding beer quality and price.

    Reeves and Scanell had enough time on their hands last season to shake the cocktails

    I'm not being obstructive. Glenn's point was the club are limited in what beers they sell because they sold the rights to the suites and kiosks. Therefore the contract owners decide what is sold.

    If the fans who contribute to helping Bingley Bantams refurbish the Bantams Bar are happy why does it matter, that's my point.

    I'm to a member of Bingley Bantams but I'd suggest it must have been discussed with their members with regards what they do with money they've raised and the members I assume have made the decision.
    I agree with you're above the club is owned by a very wealthy man who knew what he was undertaking (well you'd hope so) when he purchased the club, although at times you have to question if he did enough back ground checks.

    The Carlsberg contract relates to the beer only. The events/concourse catering contracts are separate food providers.

    WIth Carlsberg, whilst other drinks can be provided, we're very heavily rewarded to supply Carlsberg products. If we provided a none-Carlsberg line we'd lose significant revenue.

    Absolutely
    Genuine question has the club publicly thanked the Bingley Bantams or have they said they would make up the shortfall to complete the job not seen anything myself
    But that's probably lost in the silence emanating from the club at the moment

    I get both sides of the discussion. I suppose it is similar to investors in the club. Investors who put money expect a return in hard cash; the fans putting their money in via BB and other supporters clubs to complete maintenance and upgrades don’t require money back, but do receive a feeling of doing something to help the club and ultimately enhance the experience for fans using the Bantams Bar.

    I am a member of BB and I haven’t been consulted individually or collectively about this project, but it is part of the BB ethos to support the club. I wouldn’t have objected, but I do think it is a fine line you walk as a supporters club when you undertake this type of project. Supporters clubs give money to the club all the time, we sponsor players and balls, and individual games.

    Can’t see the FL or the police being that happy over glass bottles, and I can’t ever remember seeing ale in plastic bottles.

    I may be wrong but I thought whoever had the franchise or licence they had to by law offer a guest beer.

    "4" pint brew barrels should read "40" above.
