Exeter City's pasties

We should be selling chips and beer inside the ground. Must be some way of making a profit by selling them.

I've never really understood the desire to buy food etc from a football ground.

If you are going straight from home why not just have something half decent beforehand ??

If you are going from work / or from a pub etc why not just call in somewhere half decent on the way ?? Walking in from the city centre there are shed loads of options.

I appreciate for some it is a bit of a tradition however to be brutally honest the fare on offer looks and smells absolutely disgusting hence why I have never eaten anything from SJP.

Would have to agree with that. I've got fairly low standards when it comes to food and will eat almost anything, but even I draw the line at the fare on offer at SJP these days.

Totally agree, that's what your average football punter wants, all modern day clubs do this, didn't they try selling beer behind the Big Bank last season for a few games, what happened to that?

Think the trial was for a few games during the L1 relegation season but apparently the police conditions meant it wasn't viable.

Aaahh, good old D and C police, brewery and run one springs to mind!!

I had the misfortune of sampling a pasty yesterday because it was lunchtime and in the hope that they might have improved. They haven't. Utterly disgusting and not even lukewarm. It comes to something when you can't get a decent pasty at the home of Devon's premier footballing side in 2019. We now have a ground to be proud of but the catering appears to be stuck in the 80s. Sort it out TaylorShaulsEcfcthorpe.

Me too. No ill effects, but must rank as a health hazard if served at those temperatures. Should do better!

I assume you were in the Stagecoach. We had a couple and they were lukewarm at best. I did, however, still enjoy the taste and had no ill effects. I will eat any old crap though.

Indeed.

I laughed reasonably hard when I saw Fanny described as an “Active Member“ despite having not posted since October 2014.
