Barnaby Sykes - crying my pies out
« on: »
The 5 stages of grief and loss are: 1. Denial and isolation; 2. Anger; 3. Bargaining; 4. Depression; 5. Acceptance.

Not sure I'll ever get beyond #2 - Anger at the loss of the best pies ever to grace the stoop. 

Chips (£3)+grubby sausage (£4) now stand in the way and I for one can't accept it.

Bring back Barnaby Sykes?

Have you not considered paying £7 for chips with 3 lowly chicken goujons served by someone that pro-actively tries to look insulted at having to serve?
It’s a 90 minute journey across town for me to feel like I’m in Ilford in the SWC.

Just when they were getting to a point where they were nearly competent, they're gone.

How I enjoyed queuing for ages to pay, then being sent to a separate queue to get the food, watching people who didn't pay joining that queue, then finally getting to the front of the second queue and finding they'd sold out...

Yes I clocked that a few times as well. Maybe Mr Sykes went bankrupt?!

I’ve said to the boy that in future we’ll grab something at Waterloo in future.
It grates because I believe supporting your club and generating revenue, but they always tend to try to pull your pants down.

We pretty much gave up buying food at the ground when the JH went downhill sadly

We tend to buy something on the way, or eat before we leave home.

Most grandads seem to work on a basis of 1.5 trips to the gents for every pint... you must have a huge bladder! :)
