Pre-poured? Never seen that in the South Tap Inns and it’s by far the most obvious thing to do to speed things up. I can only imagine it’s a directive, to make sure all pints are “fresh”.
Beavertown in Market Place is ok though.

That was doing it at the goal line bar last season, didn't go there yesterday
They just really need some sort of bar manager for each section of the market place bar - no one takes responsibility at the moment, if there's an issue they all just stare at the back wall.
There's a bit of balance / common sense needed as loads of times last season they'd pre-poured too early and people took beers back as they'd gone flat
I wonder how long he has to queue for his half-time pint?
The shelf bar was absolutely chaotic yesterday. Bar staff looked like never poured pints before.
Don’t wanna sound like a kill joy either as I do enjoy the festivities but the acoustic band playing shelf needs to be rotated to different areas as a lot of people from the south are walking to and hanging at the shelf which puts extra queues at the bar or don’t play them before and after the game.

Gave up trying to get a beer in the Shelf bar in the end. Used the Tap in bars instead.
Went in the The Ship next door to The Elbow room before the stadium opened.Never been in there before, what a little Gem that place is. Really nice garden area and a BBQ on the go. The beers even got served in proper glasses. Will be using that place in future.
Will have to remember this my mate got back in about 10 minutes in to the second half by the time he got served and finished it. He almost gave up trying to get one before kick off too painfully slow.
I actually went to The Ship for the first time ever yesterday as well, after the game. Always like a pub with a horseshoe bar.
Incentivise the manager and staff - doesn’t have to be a lot but a small target bonus will get the fuckers moving
It was frustrating all round yesterday. Couldn't get in C&H or Bricklayers, so like you went in the ground at 13:30. Queues were crazy with lots of areas only having cans.
I have no idea why they don't have loads of pints already puled.
On I bright note, managed to meet
Mrs Perryman
after the game and had a quick chin wag. I had a fair few after the game watching the guitar guy, which was brilliant, so not sure what we talked about. :contethumb:Are they allowed to sell bottled/cans? Should definitely have mobile sellers churning them outIt was frustrating all round yesterday. Couldn't get in C&H or Bricklayers, so like you went in the ground at 13:30.

That might ease the queues. I haven't seen any to be honest. The ground seems to be getting more and more popular as a pre drink.
Hi all, a quick one as I'm visiting London in September and looking to score 2 tickets to the Leicester home game for me and a visiting friend.
I don't have a membership, can anyone let me know what the best way to go about nabbing a couple next to eachother is? Ta very much and COYS

They could actually give them a win bonus like the players - as that's when the bars are busier post game
I've never tried to get tickets for anyone who isn't a member at least. Others may be better placed to let you know but I think they very rarely go to guest sale?
At least get yourself a couple of Free CRN (membership) numbers, there is a link somewhere. Then, at least you have an easy way to transfer tickets, if a pair come available on here or somewhere else.
Failing that, cough up for One Hotspur membership and join the bun fight when the tickets release. You can then also monitor the site for tickets put up on exchange by members.
I half jokingly said to the lad filling my pint glass that I hoped they’d fixed the leaking problem. They haven’t. Beer was dripping out of the bottom. At least half of our group’s glasses did the same. FFS.
