54-46 Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 You wouldn't rate their chances because.......you think they are not as clever as you? Someone who didn't know about the discount? I was asked by a very well turned out till operator if I was a ST holder, I said yes, they asked to see my ST, which I produced, and got 10% off my bill. Pretty simple...even for you. That's me told then. Was speaking from experience in the DEH previously when short changed - more than once. I guess you did know about the discount beforehand? The letter with my ST only mentioned Sports Bar & Grill and Coffee Shop discounts and these seem to be non match days only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphindevon Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 Forever Bristol members get 5% discount on food and drinks I believe. Trouble is, none of us have got our cards yet as far as I know, so how do we prove it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ralphindevon Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I've just seen on my printable ticket, it has my Forever Bristol number on it. I guess around 95% or more of transactions will be getting a discount of either 5 or 10 %. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 I thought the new stand and concourse were brilliant. The view from my seat at the back of the SS was wonderful. There's obviously lot's still to do and the whole concourse areas will develop over time, I expect them to be very noisy with lots of echo.A slightly upsetting point was when I went to purchase a pie and a pint to wash it down, I missed it by a couple of minutes (there was no notice called), half time interval had elapsed. Now then, there was seventeen pints of lager, cider and Guiness in total pre-poured and on the bar. I don't know if that was the case in all bars but, what a waste! I was told they were going to be poured down the drain as they weren't allowed to sell them, an absolute disgrace. As a result I didn't by the pie either. Let's hope it's not repeated too often.Anyway, smashing stand, great view, plenty of leg and ass room, loads of toilets hot and cold running water and an all round good first experience.

Steve Watts Posted August 13, 2015 Report Share Posted August 13, 2015 https://twitter.com/hammerbs3/status/631926614436249600 Is that just a weird angle, or is the screen A) Too small for the gap (something I'd already heard by the way) and B) wonky?!?

Stephen Lewis Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 Frying of any kind usually requires Oil, and means increased H & S Issues, along with the need to remove the heat/ smell from the cooking process. Selling pre cooked food that only requires warming up is easier and safer. I didn't see any Chip pans but they may be there somewhere. I would guess the Bar and Grill will sell chips. Why not have microwave chips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

City Rocker Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 How about separate selling points for ST and non ST holders? You mean a kind of apartheid system to keep the part-timers away from the rest? A bit like the free school meals kids. I like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbored Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 What ever floats your boat, chips should be cooked in lard. As kids anything fried in our house was cooked in lard. It solidified once it had cooled down and then reused. I remember seeing tiny mouse footprints in the solidified lard once. My mother went berserk.
