    When I had “ shops” on railway stations for example “We” were guaranteed lease space and a %age of audited turnover. I would imagine it’s a similar arrangement ?

    I’m sure that’s how we worked commercially . Different units had different agreements.

    I thought i read when Tiffin took over, we got a set amount and a percentage of any sales above a certain point.

    Its just the industry, sadly. Pontefract races are charging 7 quid for a pint of Moretti this forthcoming season.

    unlike at football, you can BYOB there though!

    Call in the trades description police. You can't call a pie meat & potato unless it has more meat than potatoes. These are potato & meat pies

    Well, well, well. Eat your heart out @bantamlad92@bantamlad92

    I was proven wrong by a wonderfully full VP yesterday, much to my delight and surprise! There were absolutely over 20k there yesterday and from my view in the main stand, the NWC, Kop and even Midland Road end looked packed to the rafters. Serves me right for being a negative Nora and now looking like a bit of a tool on this thread.

    Anyway, that was the best period of stoppage time I've experienced in a long time at VP, makes a change to conceding late doesn't it.

    Onwards an upwards

    I had one instead of my usual Chicken Balti the other week when they'd run out of CB, it was vile. Like a load of mushed up cat food inside pastry. Can't see why anyone would go for the M&P's!
