Munzie Posted 5 March 2009 Share Posted 5 March 2009 Don't talk to me about VAT! £65!! For that, I would expect valet parking, Gordon Ramsey cooking, my seat warmed for me, and a guaranteed 6-0 thrashing. Getting Mrs Munzie anywhere near the Walkers on matchday is bloody impossible let alone a 'fine dining' experience. Does anyone sign up for this?

maddog Posted 5 March 2009 Share Posted 5 March 2009 I can't believe theyve described that at only £65 £50 may tempt me, but i still wouldn't buy. JOKE club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danny. Posted 5 March 2009 Share Posted 5 March 2009 If you have money, it isn't really that much for a day out, nice seat and food. I've not been to the restaurant at the new place, but the food at Filbert street was amazing (albeit about £100/head) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandannieldanok Posted 5 March 2009 Share Posted 5 March 2009 Why can't the club tap into the real world for once? For example; offering cheaper season tickets at the start of the season and also other cheaper ticket offers throughout the rest of the season. This type of offer is just ridiculous for 95% of fans that cannot afford £65 here and there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leftsideoverhere Posted 5 March 2009 Share Posted 5 March 2009 Dunno how many seats they've got in the restaurant on a match day, but I'm guessing they don't want 95% of fans turning up for this anyway. It's not aimed at the likes of us, is it? It's aimed at the kind of people who would spend £100 on a meal and a theatre show in the West End.

The kind of people that spend £100 on a meal and theatre show in the West End are hardly the people that would spend £65 each at a very non-romantic carvery overlooking a football pitch. For £130, I could take my Missus for a nice meal at Langhams in London or Marco Pierre Whites place. I understand keeping prices high in order to appear exclusive, but a meal at a football match? Come off it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, i think this offer is a tempter to those who usually may have thought abou the idea in the past or for some who may want to celebrate something and watch city at the same time!!!

I keep telling Mrs Munzie that she would love it at the Walkers. She could wear her tight fitting home kit that I bought her at the start of the season (as yet un-worn). After our romantic carvery I could wrap her up in my city scarf and escort her to her plush seat in order to be entertained by the boys in blue. What more could a woman want for £65? The carvery is even FAT VAT free! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The carvery is even FAT VAT free! Mrs Singhs the same, except she wouldn't piss on a city kit, and if she found out it was £65 each, she would think I was mad, seeing as we could have gone to a city game for £15 each and then went for a really nice slap up and pictures or a nice boozer afterwards!!!

Thracian Posted 5 March 2009 Share Posted 5 March 2009 Let's see! Parking £5 tops, programme £3, that's means it's £57 for the match ticket, carvery, padded seat you'd get as part of the service at Milton Keynes and a teamsheet you could write down yourself from the PA announcement. Irrisistible! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultra Posted 6 March 2009 Share Posted 6 March 2009 A Pedant Writes ;unless the programme is going to say how nice i look, shouldn't it be complementary not complimentary No. On this occasion, the club have got it right. From the Cambridge Dictionary.. complimentary (adjective)1) praising or expressing admiration for someone: The reviews of his latest film have been highly complimentary. She wasn't very complimentary about your performance, was she? Our guests said some very complimentary things about the meal I'd cooked. NOTE: The opposite is uncomplimentary. 2) If tickets, books, etc. are complimentary, they are given free, especially by a business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Monty Posted 6 March 2009 Share Posted 6 March 2009 I used to work these shifts. The food is a really good standard. I suppose it is comparable to being first class on the Titanic - everything looks better and tastes better but you have more fun down below.

Fox in a Box Posted 6 March 2009 Share Posted 6 March 2009 Don't talk to me about VAT! Car park £5. Padded seats (MK dons had 20,000 of them, even the away end had nice padded seats!!!!) FREE AT MK DONS Teamsheet, use your mobile and look it up 1hr before the game (or there abouts) Programme £3 £65 - 8.25 (.25 the paper ink) £50 for a meal and ticket, bemused as I am a ST holder would I get £23 off this (the price for at UPTON STAND TICKET £28) therefore would I get £23 back (match day prices pre ticket).... making it not £65 but £42 - 8.25 = £33.75 £33.75 for 3 courses from a carvery ...get outta here!
