TBF

Appreciated the card payment and reduced entry for season ticket holders even though non league day is in March. Took about 5 mins tk get in at 10 to 3. Ok with that

Went to the upstairs bar and got served pretty much right away.

Great game just unlucky the keeper decided to do a quick throw out at 89 mins. Dont think he will do that again.

Should have walked through the open gate on roseacre avenue.
Why bother paying when you can purchase a bowl of whelks and crack on.
Pointed this out to a steward who really couldnt give a f*88
Burger bar not open, short staffed behind the bar.
FFS, this was a real opportunity to show what the club can offer.
Where is that F888ING genius Goldberg when you need him?
Gutted with the draw, but will stick with the logic of having someone who can sit in the centre circle and receive/hold the ball.

It would be better if E&bq were to open their bar and refeshments stall with us getter a share of the profits. That would ease some of the half time crowds. The club also needs to sort out the gents toilets behind the old stand.

I have already taken up the Roseacre entrance with club. Hopefully will not happen again.

Bit confused as Burger bar was open every time I left the shop, plus I could smell it as well.

Bar staff phoned in late to cancel and when others were called to cover they were not available.

Burger bar meaning old burger bar - new lager bar

 I am getting more confused. Our old burger bar is now the buildbase bar and was open. Are you talking about the Erith and Belvedere bar and burger bar on the cricket pitch side of the ground? I have seen posts on here and heard questions at meetings asking why E&B are allowed to open and take money away from the club. In my mind it is a catch 22 situation open or closed whatever happens will be wrong.

 Sorry got you now thought you meant burger bar not open. Yes that bar did not open until they managed to get staff in. Seems a lot of the girls were not available and they only got one in late after phoning round. I suppose thats a problem everywhere when you get last minute drop outs.  Was getting worried incase they wanted me behind the pumps no

Unfortunately I think even if staffed appropriately the bars can't cater for the volume.

Understand the argument regarding the erith bar but surely make sense to see if an arrangement could be struck so some finance still comes welling way.

The match experience doesn't revolve around beer for all but getting this right would help build crowds and spend - saw many ppl give up.

 Why are people showing up so late to a game? Arrive early, with time to get your pint. OF COURSE it will be busy at half-time.

As for the gate....if you bunk in to a non-league club, you are a special type of ****.

The draw was from nothing, be happy with that. Point is a point. You can get a pint any day!

Be interesting to see how they manage that sea food stall opening today with E&B at home in the FA cup at midday

 Been done before customers use main entrance and the section of ground between road terrace and buildbase bar is fenced off. Also gates each side of wings bar shut. Still not our problem ir is theirs. Personally you would have to pay me to watch them unless they were playing us or if I were groundhopping at a team in their league.

Hopefully we will have learnt our lesson before our next league home game...

Both turnstiles on PVR should be manned.

Outside bar well stocked with beers poured and ready to go

Some better organisation for both upstairs and downstairs bar. I did see some glasses outside (and not of the plastic variety) and we need to ensure that doesn't happen again...

Likely to be our biggest league crowd of the season so need to maximise revenue.

So it might be worth paying more than minimum wage and getting a decent team running the show?

Well I went over and watched them today.

A half decent set of wingers but nothing else. Left after they were 0-4 down.

crowd of 151
