Quote ="Bilko"I don't know how many fans go the bar during the first half but I suspect it's not much they should spend the first half pouring pint after pint after pint in readiness for the break. I've been to hundreds of football and rugby grounds across the land and the half time prepartion at the JJB is amongst the worst.'"
Firstly may i appolgise for the length of time people had to wait to get servered last nite, i work behind the bar on match days ( rugby and football ) and yes the length of time people were waiting was longer than average, but i can assure you that we in the south stand tried to serve you all as quickly as possible, the six pint multi pouring machines was being used from start to finish along with the pumps at the front of the bar. The demand for beer last nite was far greater than any other match and people were coming to us asking for up to ten and twelve pints at a time, the pumps only pour at a certain speed and we the staff can only supply as quickly as the pumps allow us to. as for the comment about us pouring pint after in readiness for the break, well i can personally assure you that the que at our bar never had less than ten people waiting to get served all match, so were we normally get stocked up ready for the interval, well last nite that chance never occured. I and along with the other staff hope that you can appreciate we aim to serve you as quickly as possible so that you can enjoy what you went along to do and get behind and support Wigan R.L
