    Is this something the trust could get fully behind, it seems the vast majority of supporters are not happy with, prices, variety, service,etc maybe suggest some sort of boycott off stadium food & drink unless major improvements, it’s not as if the club has not had any feedback? 
    Personally it’s up to every individual to make their own minds up if they want to purchase food and drink from the ground even though complaints are still happening on a game by game basis.

    If I went in a pub, and it took me 20 minutes to get served and then when I did get the pint it tasted foul, then you would not see in that establishment again and I would drink elsewhere. I get it that people are in rush sometimes and don’t have a choice when they are hungry and thirsty. 

    The trust calling for a boycott serves no purpose. The only way the Catering company will take any notice is when they see that sales have dropped.

    We have seen examples on here already this season of replies given to individuals after complaints have been made but those replies have been passed onto to the Catering company to reply to.
    Obviously it’s up to individuals to not spend ,Trouble is people have complained but you get a standard response “ we will pass on” with the trust sending out signals of disapproval it might get better attention other than supporter emails of complaint?

    I drunk with some QPR supporting friends in the spoons near London Bridge so only had time to get one pint before the game in the west lower and another at HT. Both were poured quickly and tasted fine, so no issues there. 

    The young lad serving did ask who we were playing. They probably should've been told that before their shift started but all good apart from that.

    I’ve emailed the club twice this season re the food and drink. I got the standard response for the first email and was ignored for the second one. Il get food at London Bridge before the game in future. Shame as I’d rather give the club my money.

    The club don't care, if they did this would have been sorted years ago.

    My guess is, the club don't make money from sales and they're probably getting a good deal from G&G or whatever they're called now so aren't that bothered.

    The opening line is probably it in a nutshell.

    I got a sausage roll end of last season and I think it had been put through the Large Hadron Collider to warm it up. I was served by a soulless youth,  ( probably because he was on minimum wage) The Bovril was lukewarm and filled up to the brim. 
    Didn’t get a lot of change out of a £10. 
    And that was the end of me getting any food or drink from CE Lower ever again.

    Faux chicken - probably TVP, soya or Quorn - and mushroom. Tasted good.
