Curry Nights are back at The Valley...‏

Er_Be_Ab_Pl_Wo_Wo_Ch

I got a spam email from the club earlier today about this. Doesn't look too bad as a one-off 'treat' and a few quid in the club's coffers, think I'll give it a go.

Any Lifers done this 'Curry Night' before?

AFKABartram

It's a good question - it says it includes a "suite overlooking the pitch" which would suggest that it does, but I highly doubt it for £25.

I'm pretty certain it won't include a ticket bearing in mind the high cost of hospitality packages elsewhere within the ground.

Spam curry, never had that before.

Surprised that there's only 2 options.

You only get one option in the Keith Peacock Suite and that costs £60 for silver matches and £72 for gold matches.

They also have an option for Boeuf Bourgignone at the same price although I think it's in a different area and doesn't come with the pint.

Curry night will put a stop to the Clean Sheet thread on the forum. ;-)

Standard Gurkha ration pack food back in the 1990's, as it happens.
Bloody marvelous it is too, when cooked in ghee.

If I remember rightly last year it was £20 and did not include a ticket, food was reasonable and with the pint it was reasonable value.

This year an extra fiver but you may get to see the players warming up beforehand I guess.

Addickforlife

Didn't include ticket last year.

Was quite a nice spontaneous thing I did before one game. Reasonable value and a different pre-match 'routine', but not something I'd make a habit of doing.

Sounds good, confirms what I suspected, I'll have a go. Thank you.

What? You mean the players have a curry with you before the match?

Sorry, AFKA. Didn't mean to be flippant.

DEF no ticket.

Yea was £20 last season, I did curry night and pie night. Curry one was busier! Good food both times.

£25 seems a little more that I'd like to pay considering I don't want a programme!

Ahhh but has it been cooked in a separate post code to the normal option?

That would be a Ron Atkinson type way of putting fire in their bellies!

We went for this package before the rearranged Doncaster midweek game last November, principally because it was only £18 a head (I think it was the first time the Club had offered it). It was pretty good and, if the other new catering in the ground is anything to go by, maybe the quality of the food will have improved further.

A good package for a special occasion or one-off, but I wouldn't do it on a regular basis.

AFKABartram

Thanks to the ST cock-up, the North Stand lounge is almost completely deserted. When i popped my head around 2.40 of the Wigan game there were around 15-20 paying people and a few youth team sitting around in their tracksuits.

So something has to be done with that area before the whole season is wasted, so i would expect a lot more of these promotional events. Personally i think there looks a huge mark up of the cost price of what's on offer, but if people are prepared to pay it and it gets people filling an almost empty room, then all good.

Paid £20 for this at the rearranged Doncaster game last season. It was ok as a curiosity and there was plenty to eat, if you're happy to load up on bread & rice. At £20 none in my party of 4 could quite see where the value was. At £25 I'd be properly disappointed. It tasted alright but not up to supermarket 'indian meal for 2 in a box' standards and the less said about the red wine the better. If the new catering mob have upped the quality in all areas then maybe it works. By was of comparison for £25/head at a very good indian restaurant in Woking on Friday evening we had huge choice, 3 courses, beer, wine and water and the food is of an entirely different quality.

@AFKABartram‌ - I was a Crossbar member last year although my season ticket was in the West Stand, I have now transferred to the Millenium Lounge and would say it is very busy both before and after the game. You might not be aware that Crossbar members were encouraged to go their seats around 14:30 which is probably why there were so few people there when you poked your head into the room. For the sake of a balanced view perhaps at the next home game you attend you could poke your head into the room at say 13:30.

Can you see the pitch from Woking ?
