Its about customer satisfaction, treating them right and giving a fit for purpose product on and off the park, whether its £90 meals £3 pies or £40 tops they all bring cash in and leave an impression especially to the new or not so regular visitor. Yes we have telly money (mystery value) but with games being live we need to ensure the punters enjoyment is maintained and food poisoning or crap hospitality or amatuerish running won't do that. Let's see how much the telly deal makes us on a cold wet december friday night on a losing streak

And as has been muted for long enough, the club cannot survive only on ticket money it has to look for alternative revuenue streams

At charging up to £120 a head does not affect the business progress then we obviously have a lot more money than we let on, add to that a person taking clients for a meal, who being impressed decide to sponser the club (or invest) instead of being put of or poisoned and sue the club in worst case scenario

Thats the ones, they don't even have a email address or phone number listed anymore shows you just how professional they are, and at £90 ahead plus VAt (£120 +vat for Celtic) I hope they will be doing better than a re-heat. I'm sure it was a different company that was running the catering when the pie of the month was running

With all the good that has came out the club on the park over the last season plus the North Stand, it seems to me that we keep shooting ourselves in the foot off it. We had the Season ticket prices carry on, no increase then an increase then wrong prices posted, plus the form couldn't get filled in on line The season ticket finance plan being not what it stated The TAG scheme going quiet No DVD as of yet (Strike when the irons hot etc not 6 games into the season if were on a bad run and enthusiasm is down) The shirts and replica gear apparently being poor quality and the location being off the beaten track Now we have the catering being slated (or nearly condemned) and this was apparently the hospitality, the catering (pie sheds has been getting slated all year) and now it seems the hospitality food is re-heats going by sporting solutions "A spokesman for Sporting Solutions, who provide the catering for Partick Thistle, said: “All the issues raised in the report have been rectified. We were advised by an inspector that we did not need to keep food safety records because all food is pre-prepared.” These are all revenue streams the club should be pushing and maximizing the catering company is staffed by "back to work" press ganged folk, the office is manned by volunteers, It wasn't so long ago our hospitality was classed as the best in Scotland with it nearly full every home game, its now open 3 or 4 times a season thats not just down to finances from the punters its down to the quality of the product being served (or re-heated) up. We have on our board David Beattie who made his fortune in pies, Ajay Chopra who basically runs supply chains, then the 2 or 3 from Europa, surely to god these guys should be up to sorting this out or are we only really interested in the ticket and TV money

Do we still have sporting solutions and their free workers for next year??

The improvement notice was give February 18th 2012, going with the posts on here last season the standard of catering actually dropped last year

A spokesman for Sporting Solutions, who provide the catering for Partick Thistle, said: “All the issues raised in the report have been rectified. We were advised by an inspector that we did not need to keep food safety records because all food is pre-prepared.” Does that mean that the hospitality food is re-heats??

I still play that in the bedroom when I get lucky

Eh?... Never heard this

Lets put it in perspective he also tweets Paul Paton ‏@PaulPaton423 Jun Good luck to the Thistle boys starting back tomorrow. Wish you's all a good, injury free season. Great lads with big futures.

Some of our Ref's make judgements like the crania has already been seperated from the shoulders

Smallest lowest team possible at home for this and all the rounds

72 goals in a half that's a goal every 37.5 seconds, was the opposition shooting into its own goals from kick off

And I took them for a draw............ another coupon bust

Before my time

The other issue for Friday nights is that alot of kids have BB/Cubs/Guides etc on that night of the week, and not only can the kid not attend but the parent may need to collect them when the game is still in play. From a travel point of view I'm not sure as to whether I will need to wait to 4 weeks before a game to book my flights as this may be getting changed a month at a time or run the risk of either missing a game or losing my flight money, if at the start of the season when the fixtures first come out the games for the whole season that are to be moved were decided it would be far better for all concerned.

Kenny Watson & Nicky Walker

If he thought he could he would

With C**kwomble in charge it probably won't be a draw but a placement of teams to ensure a Celtic Sevco final, with a Hibs Hertz at one round, and a Arabs Dons in another to keep his telly masters happy

Lay aff the strong cheese before bedtime

Are we even sure there will be a league cup this year?? Don't remember it being mentioned in the league stay as you are reconstruction
