MikeO Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 At motorway service station prices I calculate that's about three grab-bags of cheese and onion and a king size Mars Bar. No big deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blueboy122 Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Bet they couldnt wait to print this. Just to show that stereo typical badge we cant seem to shake from the 70s 80s.

Philinsuffolk Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 If (and I stress IF) Everton fans were involved with this, then they bring embarressment to our club and the city. Sorry, but also have to disagree with the notion that its not a big deal - it is theft. Granted, it may not be the biggest crime of all time buts it is theft. And IF (that word again) our fans can afford the ticket cost then they can afford the cost of a bag of crisps or whatever bits were taken. A couple of quid difference to making a little damage to our reputation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it's a big deal, I think he was playing on the prices of confectionary at service stations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can relax again and got off my soapbox! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalziel Kane Posted April 1, 2012 Report Share Posted April 1, 2012 I went into one of these establishments last Sunday near the middle of nowhere and goddamn it, a packet of Richmond Superkings £3-70, I had no choice though, as it was the only place open for miles at the time. Also - No liquor on sale Sometimes stealing from these miserable places is the only viable alternative rather than taking out a mortgage and paying extortionate prices. It's not something I'd do myself, as rather pay and be done with it, but you can understand some peoples mentality. I read the link again and it says 'Everton supporters raid gas station in £500 chocolate snatch' and also, 'They made off with a significant amount of crisps'. Don't our fans take care of their eating habits?, If I they stole some carrots or celery sticks it wouldn't be so bad maybe, but all that unhealthy eating, I mean they're not doing themselves any favors with this.
