Thespence Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 A few seasons back they were known as "Atomic pies", often in winter you would see people buy two mince pies before kick off and sit with them with their hands in their pockets to keep them warm. About 60 minutes into the match they were usually cool enough to eat. After thousands of complaints of burnt hands/tongues/throats I believe they now take them out of the hot oven thing and store them on a shelf to let them cool down. The snow problem could be dealt with if instead of spraying grit they sprayed "atomic pie" filling, it would be more effective.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could just put one in the centre circle & it would clear the snow off the terraces. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Anyone else remember "GUEST PIE" :lol: :lol: :lol: Each match a random/not on the menu pie would grace the SJP kiosks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest toonlass Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 Anyone else remember "GUEST PIE" :lol: :lol: :lol: Each match a random/not on the menu pie would grace the SJP kiosks. They changed it to "GUEST PIE EATER" at half time, when an old, overweight ex-newcastle player graced the centre circle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Parka Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Went to an away match with worksop town v Stamford in the FA trophy. The worksop fans ate the club out of pies The best thing about going to see worksop town as a child (apart from the fact we had waddle for a while) was the pie, peas, mint sauce and bovril. Yum. Never had any food at SJP. Far too expensive like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I just get a tea and a kitkat at every game I go to, it's a routine now. Especially cosy in the winter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
relámpago blanco Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I love a good pie, but I find its not a good idea if you're wanting to get pissed. Normally go to a pub for dinner before the match, get in my pre-match 6 pints then another couple at the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoreboard82 Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 Pies are Ok, once they're cool enough to taste. They're usually hotter than the sun when you get them. Rip-off price though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
