Who ate all the pies?

PUKKA PIES AT BLACKPOOL...

Feeling peckish, and foolishly hoping that the Pukka Pies at Bloomfield Road might just have the edge over the last sorry offering I purchased at the Crown ( Wham !). I slid stealthily up to the food counter and bought one of their Meat and Potato delicacies...In front of other Meat Pie afficionados I unscrewed the lid and what do you think ?..The first centimetre layer of filling was lukewarm, the rest almost cold !.

I took it back and the Catering Supervisor immediately went in search of a Pie which could be described as Hot !.. she found one and with a smile exchanged them !..so kind !.

It was so unpalatable that I almost didn't eat it, but hunger pangs made me finish it apart from three pieces of gristly ' Meat ? '.

Am I to complete what is left of life's journey and not find a Pukka Pie which will satisfy my somewhat demanding tastes in such comestibles ?.

I've got a fiver burning a hole in my pocket so, in hope, I'll try another at the Crown this afternoon !.. .wish me luck !!

Chuck yer £5 in the bin mate, its better value.

You'd have been better venturing onto the prom for some proper fish & chips Alan, then you could've joined the march from the Manchester to the ground with some good grub inside you enabling you to join in the singing

Queued up for most of half time for a pie. The queue never moved. I made the decision to forego the pie and returned back to the Clayton end terrace empty handed. I'm glad I did too otherwise I would have missed our superb goal. Something needs to be done to speed things up at the pie counter.

Just thought I'd treat myself, it's my first game since early Feb, due to sickness. I'll take your advice in future!

I did Exile AND at last the Pukka Pie was almost pukka..... I say almost because again,in the opinion of one who has tasted better, the Meat content appeared and proved to be of inferior quality !.

But it was hot, I didn't have to queue at all, so I can take some positives from the experience !.

Lets give pukka pies a chance, they make some good products.

Our fans rep has spoken, Yonmon. Stop criticising and get behind the pies!

Perhaps if they sold these good products then,everyone would be happy.

[DAV007]

Maybe the quality of pukka products is not the same at the game as they sell on supermarket shelves?

No! I think they make better ones especially for sale at Stanley

I'm not prepared to queue up for half of the afternoon to test your theory Lord S!

Some people just don't get irony.
Even DAV fell for it!
