pozbaird Posted August 6, 2017 Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 At the risk of being branded a 'constantly negative club basher' once more - I agree with recent posts. The change from En Croute to UWS saw a marked decline in the standard and presentation of the cuisine. I had sampled other club's fare and we were a cut above with En Croute. Cutting the time from 12 to 12.30 again eats into the package value, and the use of terminology season after season after season 'fine wines', 'enter through the exclusive hospitality entrance', and suchlike smacks to me of complacency and laziness. Hey, IMHO - he added. For clarity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, IMHO - he added. For clarity. I found that En Croute were very good to start with but their quality definitely dropped considerably. I'd say the quality now is on a par with what En Croute left behind. I'm sure this is the 3rd season of 12:30 entry so not sure why so many have picked up on this change now.

I suppose the bottom line is that yesterday's corporate punters would have enjoyed their day far, far more following an entertaining 3-1 win than they would have, had it been a shitfest ending in a 1-0 Falkirk win with a 90th minute penalty following a blatant Hippolyte dive in the box. I may venture into hospitality once this season, but I genuinely don't think it is as good as it used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Arthur Blair Posted August 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2017 See the clip of the goals from yesterday that I posted in the matchday thread? Did anyone notice the last caption just before the clip ended? I wonder what you get for £35 (+vat). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure however here's the link to their full price hospitality options http://www.falkirkfc.co.uk/commercial/matchday-hospitality/On first glance the Falkirk packages appear cheaper, however there is a distinct lack of inclusive bevvy.

Yip. Also a lack of food. 1 course meal against the diddy teams. St Mirren v Falkirk inclusive of drinks for a season ticket holder. £80 + vat. Falkirk v St Mirren with a pay bar for a season ticket holder. £70 Expensive but competitive. Edited August 6, 2017 by davidg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my experience you won't get turned away if you don't have one, I'd reckon 90% will have a tie on mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St.Ricky Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 The proof of the correctness of the pricibg of this particular "pudding " will be in the eating or rather how well filled Hospitality is.
