OldhamFanatic1 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Something really needs to be done in relation to the shocking catering facilities and customer service, at Boundary Park. At all 4 home games this season, they've ran out of meat and potato pies where I sit in the Chaddy End. Unacceptable. From now on, i'm going to bring my own home-made egg butties. Is big Barry Owen around to reply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamFanatic1 Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 Our pies at BP are the best in Britain. Just a pity that theres not enough of them to go round. No wonder with people like Mike Keegan and Matt Chambers getting freebies! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamFanatic1 Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 It may seem only a small thing to everyone else, but I love a pie at half-time. Getting the small things right is what makes a club great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NIKI1234 Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I notice they dont even bother opening one of the food stalls under the stand in the chaddy anymore. Shutters are always down along with the empty room that used to be the bookies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldhamFanatic1 Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 (edited) I notice they dont even bother opening one of the food stalls under the stand in the chaddy anymore. Shutters are always down along with the empty room that used to be the bookies Similar to the old bookies in the main stand. Just an empty room now filled with chairs, coat hangers, old advertising boards and plastic tea cups.

Some damn fine pie throwing. Its a damning indictment of how :censored: we are at home when thats still one of my highlights of recent(ish) times.

OldhamFanatic1 Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 I'll be writing to Barry Owen about the pie issue. Completely unacceptable that i've been starving at the last 4 home games because of the clubs' incompetence. I'll get it sorted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldhamFanatic1 Posted September 26, 2013 Author Share Posted September 26, 2013 (edited) Oh dear God. What's that meant to mean? Yes, you may think that i'm going 'over the top'. But that's the problem with the club and everyone connected to it - they're happy with rubbish customer service and complete and utter mediocrity. If my letter of complaint to Barry helps and improves the catering department on matchdays, then it'll be well worth it. I'm fed-up to the back teeth of people accepting crap standards. If we want to move forward as a club, issues like this need sorting for the long-term benefit of the club.

IceStationLatic Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Must admit I agree to a point. Every good business does the basics right. And the golden rule: good customer service. And while we're at it: is it just me that gets slightly garbled sounding Latics Player videos when viewing them from my phone. I'm on wifi. Are they uploaded at a low quality or is it something else?!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskedOwl Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 last home game I nipped into Pound Bakery in Royton and purchased 2 meat and potato pasties for £1. ate them at the game. instead of moaning just change your tactics.

stevesmitt Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 The bottom line is the worse the catering company becomes the more money the club will lose out on. If they are not maximising there profits then when they come to renew the contact with the club they will not pay as much cos they are not earning as much. Its a vicious circle that can only be broke by the catering company sorting itself out. The more they keep running out the more people will eat before the game or bring there own food resulting in the catering contract not being worth as much to the club. Ive no idea how much the contract is worth but every little helps at a club like ours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
