    Negatives from last night?

    The chips. First time I've bought chips at Easter Road and will be the last. I was hoping to get soup but they didn't have any. Chips were complete rank and I'm beginning to wonder if they use potatoes or wood bark. The were hard as nails. Ate about six and almost choked on them. The remainder I stuck under my seat. For £2 or whatever they were I would expect better.

    How difficult is it to produce a chip that's edible.

    Just saying likes.

    Whilst I can in no way disagree with you, I did find the chips a refreshing change after the pies.

    They should move that vendor on to Tynecastle where they could make use of his chips to secure the bits falling off their stand.

    Why do they not sell either chips nor pizza in the west upper stands.

    Steak pies still stick to the bottom. No point getting served them more quickly when they are barely eatable.

    You got to wonder where the priorities lie.

    How bloody difficult would it be to put a pot of soup on as well. Would be bugger all effort in cost and difficulty for them. Never understood why football clubs don't do it.

    Whilst listening to your concerns, re-the aforementioned pies, I have to disagree. I bought 2 of them and asked the girl to distinguish ,as one was a steak, the other a mince. I thought I got the steak, but it took 5 mins to get it oot the tin stuff and actually get a bite. tasted something between mince and steak but still undecided. Also, she had run out of Bovril, 3 minutes after the second half KO.

    It would be better to let the club know, rather than posting on here (not having a go at you)

    They do but all the rejected produce is then sent over to the east and FF for us lower class peasants to buy.

    Is it maybe because there is a high percentage of adults in that section and pizza/chips is usually eaten by youngsters?

    Good shout about the soup. There is a healthy mark-up so we might see it soon if suggested.

    The match kicked off before I was my seat. I was only three minutes late as well. Thought they might have waited. Plus my seat wasn't warm.

    You must have been in the East. My good wife & myself were dragged there again by my grandson & his mother, away from the quiet
    solitude of the West Upper. Mind you, I'm sure I could here some singing from over there as well. It's not what i come to Easter Road for
    either. I was even jostled by young ragamuffins on the way down the stairs.

    One real negative for me, and yes I'll be shot down for being a wet blanket, but I've always been critical of it, was Malonga's yellow card for removing his top. No big deal and understandable in the heat of the moment but might be regretted near the end of the season when he could become unavailable through suspension. Unnecessary yellow cards must be a manager's nightmare.

    I split my toenail when the second goal went in. Didn't feel it until this morning though. Why the hell hasn't Petrie sent out steel toe capped boots?

    Sorry until they do I'm no going back!!!!!

    The steak pies in BTG are just .
    Presume the remaining ones left over get taken to hospitality?

    In the concourse though it should always be a half pizza no? The rest of the food is rank!
