    We all know they’re needed and even the owners reluctantly admit we do. Whether we get what’s needed is a different matter.
    Be nice to be pleasantly surprised but not holding my breath.

    I know this is a joke but this was actually the strongest part of the Q&A from Khaled. Sounds like they're trying to improve the experience at Oakwell in these small ways. We've all teased about the flatbreads but the renting out of a concessions stand is a good idea

    Wasn't that Sean Lewis's idea about 20 years ago?

    Half the board (this one, not the captains of industry who apparently run us) have suggested it repeatedly over the past couple of years. A child could see that it's a good idea.

    This isn't business acumen, it's just competence. The bare minimum.

    I've got no idea who that is, but if it hasn't happened up to now then credit where it's due

    You've got 12,000 people essentially trapped in a venue that you own once a fortnight. They're going to be there for about two hours. Do you:

    a) Put on some decent food
    b) Meh, who cares

    If you chose option (a) then congratulations, you're now the CEO of a multi-million pound business. Here's your hundred grand a year, have a good one.

    There's never been any good food in the last 20 years I've been going so they deserve credit for changing that

    No disrespect to flat breads but it's sumat you have from takeaway on way home after 12 pints or to impress a bird on a date to Meadowhall.

    No disrespect to your spouse but it's a wonder you aren't still single.

    I wonder where this better service he mentioned several times is ? It’s not in the Ponty the service is appalling and they are missing out on hundreds or thousands each game.
