And we all expected you to tell us we were wrong in a faintly patronising way, and to trust whatever your "sources" tell you without providing any evidence to back it up.
UnlIke you I do have evidence but it isn’t my job to make that public, and unlike you I don’t believe in lazy speculation when I don’t have the facts at my disposal.
We lost the Hellfire food. We lost the chef Will Shaw. We lost the Funky Elephant. We lost the Arriva match day bus contract. Quite obviously the club/owners are doing something wrong. Naive to think otherwise.
Of course we should all try to be positive, where there is something to be positive about.
Similarly it is perfectly acceptable to call things out when they are not being done properly.
Wanderers were trending last night on ‘X’ when a Bolton fan posted negatively re our food offering on ‘Football Away days’ -it looked in edible, was expensive and frankly an embarrassment. Doubly so given previous pronouncements about fan experience, best in class etc etc.
I was always taught ‘under promise, over deliver’ - feels like we are doing the polar opposite right now. Not a good look.
EDIT : I somehow posted this when I was trying to delete it from the automatically saved draft, that'll teach me to use the Gasroom at work on my mobile...
If you think that van is bad you should avoid the kiosks in the ground, think there was about one game in the Tom Kerridge pie era where it looked like they had it all sorted, otherwise it's been a wasteland of shite you wouldn't eat in the taxi queue after a night out for almost all of my time following the Wanderers.
Also rapidly getting to the point where drink is a no no at AP. Queueing for 15 mins to be informed that the only ale available was IPA was not a good experience. Bitter? No Yes
The queues for the bars were awful on Tuesday ! But I couldn't work out why ? It's not as if we had a massive crowd, was about the same as normal. As for the food, I don't bother eating at football, but my mate had a chicken pie at half time and he reckoned there was about 3 pieces of chicken in it, the rest was all sauce.

Absolutely and I’m certain that it will be sorted out.
And we all expected you to tell us we were wrong in a faintly patronising way, and to trust whatever your "sources" tell you without providing any evidence to back it up.
I'm not accusing the club of not paying, or indeed blaming them for anything to do with the breakdown in negotiations.
I'm just saying that rumours will circulate, until the club give a reason for the service no longer being available.
If there is a perfectly good reason, which paints the club in a good light, why not publish it?

I know something you don't know, look at me, I'm big and important.
The club have said the arrangement has come to an end and they're seeking a new arrangement.
Do people think they'd either admit blame, or start dishing blame to the bus gang? Neither seem a sensible approach?
That is totally uncalled for. Perhaps your sarcasm would be better directed at posters who choose to blame the club without knowing the facts.
Well at least there is something negative left for us to argue about.
We've stopped moaning about:
The quality of the football
The quality and cost of the food
The condition of the toilets
The use of substitutes
The lack of info on injuries
If they get this sorted what else have we got?
Shirts, chairlifts, fireworks.
Billionaires with potential connections to Putin’s Russia

No positives then?
I find that it’s a two way street with @drcongo sarcasm. Even when aimed at me it I can sometimes see that in retrospect it always tends to have merit

Wow 😂 https://twitter.com/FBAwayDays/status/1716891206272356629
🤢🤮
Wonder how much that treat goes for.
£7
Matey had already provided a link for that, why on earth would you screenshot that in massive size?
Trying to eat here🤢
Quite honestly that likes just like any other hot dog if you don't bother putting on onions and mustard or ketchup.
....Or cook it, and then charge £7 for it

Is that hot dog thing one from the “German” sausage vendor ?I had one once, never again.

I would have thought that by now all regular supporters were aware that food at Adams Park was a no no.
Also rapidly getting to the point where drink is a no no at AP. Queueing for 15 mins to be informed that the only ale available was IPA was not a good experience. Bitter?

It was a bunch of new staff on indoors. All looked barely 18 years old. Patience needed
Is she pretty nifty behind the bar?
