It’s not just the tea bags that you are paying for, there’s utility bills, wages for the person making the tea, rent of the outlet (if the kiosk is outsourced like at Argyle), VAT, corporation tax, etc.

Matchday catering is a complete rip off generally
But as Superguy says, you don't have to buy it
ARGYLE Tea £2.20
But I understand Argyle do not profit from the general catering outlets profits

They need the money to build a stand and fix their urinals

LOL they were pretty unpleasant after half time as they were filling up rapidly!

Worse urinals I remember were at the old Swansea City ground, just an open air trough and no cubicles either. That was taking the p#ss.

I have just payed £2.10 for a cup of tea on the GWR train back from yesterdays game.

Urinals at the bottom of the ramp after the lyndhurst turnstiles was difficult to beat. Incidentally that’s where we used to bunk in, utilising a well climbed tree

I got caught climbing over there. They made me go back and watch the Second half though.

It’s weird, sometimes they’d police the area well and there was no way you were getting over, then they’d catch you and walk you out. We had it off to a tee, we used to rush it and go over mob handed then leg it up the ramp and disappear. Even when I got caught I would eventually get over BUT it became a military op

Kassam owns the stadium and ridiculously gets all revenue from catering, effectively screwing the current owners and club.

Don’t ever buy from that man.
