I assume rovers cater for the expected crowd and about 10% more. Who would have predicted over 7Comprehensive turday? Of course in Oldies world it's better for the club to lose money on catering so he can moan about that as well. How many should we cater for against Telford Oldie? And if you have to justify why everything is BSS's fault then it just confirms what a jerk Oldie really is. I've run a business and he patently has no idea about how responsibilities devolve down whilst still under the overall umbrella of the board of directors. So just blank him and he will eventually go away. By the way Oldie, the use of big words proves nothing. It doesn't make you more intelligent, just that you didn't go to school in the Ashton area of the city. He he....perhaps you might want calm down and read again. School? Well I was brought up on the South side, Knowle Park Juniors and Hengrove Comprehensive....does that count? Not sure, but it really felt like it growing up there and supporting Rovers, it could be a bit of a fight sometimes, literally!!! As for what happened last weekend, the evidence sfeems pretty overwhelming. The board are accountable for that and Brian is a member of that board, so his response was silly. I may well be a jerk, but that does not alter the facts.

I'm thinking about setting up a new forum about catering but I'm worried about dividing the pasty base

Short crust or puff?
The divide is clear Ras.
Give people what they want. You can always just ban those miserable shortcrust bastards.

face it... we got greedy and took over the Pasty franchise. We then did not put a full team to run it. Exactly the same as the rest of the club. We cut all the wrong corners. If you are going to take something on then do it right....
for the sake of a few hunderd quids of POTENTIALLY ruined pasties we(they) could have avoided all the negative press that we(they) are now getting. I see this time and time again in business where they think it is easy to make a quick buck.
Whilst the BSS bashing by Oldie is amusing, I do not know who would be responsible for the fiasco. Ian Holtby is the stadium manager, but who heads up the catering? I bet the club cannot produce an organagram to show the structure! This puts undue pressure on BSS who is the only one with any BALLS to front up and face the music. Others (Below board level) are as accountable as BSS its just that they are well hidden/keeping their heads down.

Actually, the bit that threw out the normal crowd prediction was the fact that it was on TV.
It was surprising to most that we had 7000 here Saturday. Just read what has been posted in that regard.
Sorry what was that prediction for attendance re Telford again?

. I think GasInCider makes a good point, Guessing attendances is difficult. Gamble loads turn up = Earn loads or throw away loads, Gamble on low attendance = Run out of stock or save yourself money. It's a no win from the outside. Happens everywhere though, and hopefully we as a club learn and adjust our planning. Thats really all we can do. Not just us remember. Last weeks pre-season friendly between Derby County and The Rangers, just after half-time:
