Take a bow. Hot and busy in there today but they worked really hard to keep the drinks flowing. Well done all.

Disgusting idea and so un British to have sensible queues in a bar!


They need to get an app like Wetherspoons so you can order online & staff bring drinks to you....it's not as if they gave anything else to do

Don’t need them. Sorts itself out and unlike some establishments it’s all good natured. Speed means it only makes a minute or two difference.

Extra time queuing for a beer gives more time to gaze on the unrefined beauties behind the bar :lol:

:lol: Don't bother, sensible ideas like that always get shot down on here, especially anything relating to improvements in the SC bar...

First time ever in the North Stand yesterday as couldn't get an extra ticket in the South for kid. The staff behind the bar/food counter on the East side were atrocious. Slow, clueless and lazy.

Wasn't talking specifically about the SC. You wouldn't accept a scrum to be served in any other shop.

It's £3 for kids in the North - could save some dosh by sitting there in future.

Save your breath Mr Prestige - there's a few people on the board who seem to intensely dislike anyone elses reasonable ideas for improvement - and why on earth the SC couldn't be bothered to trial them is another matter...

What is your suggestion for the SC. Perhaps a raffle ticket system to make sure everybody gets served in sequence, perhaps barriers could be put up to ensure orderly lines, just bad luck if the person in front is ordering lots of drinks. Or maybe zigzag barriers to make sure people get served in sequence. What is your reasonable idea for improvement.

If it’s a good one why not suggest it to the club. Better to offer solutions than criticise how it is now. But it’s nicer to moan.

Barriers just use more space up
I don’t think there is a remedy
Fan zone doesn’t seem to take that many away can’t comment on the local pubs in the area as I’ve never been in any of them
The SC has just got to small for its demands nobody’s fault

I would say it’s a victim of its own success. Crowded for sure but the staff work hard and despite the crush getting served is fairly quick. And the beer is bloody good too.

Plus the fact ,they're all volunteers and do it for love of the club not money. Saturday was busy , but the longest I waited for a drink was 10 mins or so. They all do a bloody fantastic job and we're lucky they want to do it, because I certainly wouldn't!

It's not just time, it is being squashed up against old farts that is the problem.
