Allan, it was originally 10 years, then the Riddler borrowed more money of them before he left, so we gave them a 1 year extension, I think they have approx 8 years left, not good.[/




The service is painfully slow the staff of mainly all kids and obvious not football fans as they seem to just want to f**k about and chat with each other behind the food counters instead of servicing orders when we the fans just want to get back to their seats and try not to miss any of the game also the food is vastly overpriced ,overcooked,limited nasty saturated fat induced garbage and is not attractive in any shape or form.
Surely CCFC can set up catering aminaties of their own then undercut the robbing compass bastards and force theit hand to tear up their contract , I have a strong feeling CCFC want compass out from their pre season surveys when i am certain fans overwhelmingly state how bad the food and service is and how overpriced it is ?.

I can't believe it's Whitely who has been relieved of his duties/sacked judging to another thread. I thought he done okay handling the re-brand issue with his fan interaction, understands the fans as well.

Are there ways around it?

do Compass have any exclusivity OUTSIDE the ground?

i.e.... In/near the Club Car Parks etc could Tan be 'persuaded' to give other
companies a bit of work?... fans knowing the score could pretty much f**k
Compass off then. Scoff like f**k up before the game, but right up to the
turnstiles... Compass might just be left with the alcohol, and i could be miles
off here... there's not enough profit on the beer alone to make it worthwhile?

Educate me someone?

feasible?

Made up Tan is on their case though :D

Dave,

As Carl and I were walking today through the car park Carl, said to me, we should have beer and food tents outside the stadium, I wonder if Compass could stop us? hmm.

Cheers Carlos, spot on as usual, sadly Alan Whitley himself never even knew his fate.

Well that friday night they had live bands my daughter asked if i could take her for a happy meal in mcdonalds but we were stopped by stewards from leaving the fenced off compound saying that if we left to go to mcdonalds we wont be allowed back in as compass have their own food outlets there and would complain to the club.

Hmm, I dont ever buy food in our ground, coffee at best, I eat and drink before I get there, over priced crap in the ground.

Strangely I quite often buy food or drink at away grounds whereas I would never dream of buying the crap they serve at CCS.

Not sure why this is - am I being disloyal?

No not at all, I feel & do exactly the same.

Scuse my food needs.

2.99 for a lunchbox in KFC, you get your value.

Chips in the CCS are 2.70 if I'm not mistaken? It's disgusting, I'm glad VT wants to change things in the stadium
