    Can't disagree with that at all, Tiffin are a fantastic example of a company putting their heart and soul into Bratfud.

    One thing I would point out though is he really needs his pubs to have the same standard as each other. City Vaults, superb adherence to Covid rules, good distancing, brilliant table top service. Won't mention the name of the other but its also owned by Doug McLean and they had NO table service, no sign in and punters getting beers at the bar.

    If June 21st is put back two months (as seems to be possible) none of these will be open at the start of the season.

    Think about this in a different way. What sells at footy matches?

    Clearly this new venture must make money, so one sells what actually flies off the counter right?
    It’s nice to have something different but smoked salmon and prawn bagels and baguettes would not make the sales and generate profit.

    Yes a wild difference but you said you want local influences…..

    So stalyse a menu that will sell?

    Meanwhile give it a try before being critical. ?

    Spot on. What sells at football is burgers and pies. Samosas would probably do well but those that buy food at footie will buy it if it fits the bill and those that don't ever (me apart from an odd pie every now and again) won't. If you take your own food its usually because of cost and you could add the finest cuisine available but it wouldnt sell to the bring your own brigade.

    Yes samosas are a great shout. Whatever it’s got to be what I call, standing up, one hand food. One hand for the drink, one for the food! Simple concept really.

    Seeing on twitter the passion for the pies? Baffles me they were dogshit. About time we changed it up. Agree more could be done but it’s early days

    James Mason almost had this over the line in the past until Rahic got involved, you're right another positive move forward by the club, Ryan has to win these companies over who may have been shit on in the past.

    Aren’t the caterers in the suites separate to the kiosks?

    Think so, but the same company (or company within their group) run the Headley Venue at Headley golf course and do it exceptionally well so I would expect the banqueting offering to improve dramatically
